The Incarnate Christ and His Critics engages objections to the divine identity of Jesus from Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, progressive Christians, Muslims, Unitarians, and others. Bowman and Komoszewski show how biblical scholarship cannot reasonably ignore the enduring, wide-ranging, and positive case for the deity of Christ.

The most widely-used text of the last 25 years in its discipline, Systematic Theology by Wayne Grudem has been thoroughly revised and expanded for the first time while retaining the features that have made it the standard in its field: Clear explanations, an emphasis on each doctrine’s scriptural basis, and practical applications to daily life. Volume 1 of 2.

"There is not and has never been tension between God's sovereignty and man's free will." For centuries, the apparent antinomy between absolute divine sovereignty and genuine human freedom has persisted as a central crux in Christian theology and philosophy. How can God meticulously govern all events, including foreknowing future contingents, without negating meaningful human choice and moral responsibility? In Resolving The Free Will Dilemma, Brett D. Henderson presents a novel and rigorously argued thesis: the perceived tension is not inherent in the doctrines themselves, nor is it a ...

A Practical Primer on Theological Method is a "how-to" manual for doing theology and a handbook of etiquette for doctrinal discussions with other believers. This popular-level introductory audiobook presents the proper manner, mode, and means of engaging discourse concerning God, his works, and his ways.

DIOS ES SIMPLE: NO TIENE PARTES, NO CAMBIA, Y NO PUEDE SER CAMBIADO POR FACTORES EXTERNOS La doctrina de la simplicidad divina ha sido durante la mayor parte de la historia la piedra angular de la doctrina de Dios. Sin embargo, ha sido en el mejor de los casos ignorada, y en el peor de ellos rechazada. El Señor es Uno presenta tratamientos exegéticos, históricos y teológicos sobre la simplicidad divina, argumentando que esta doctrina es indispensable para una correcta compresión de la teología propia. En los últimos tiempos, el trinitarismo social y el teísmo mutualista, entre otros...

In such a time as this when many churches in Africa are drifting away from biblical Christianity and adopting doctrines and practices totally foreign to the Christianity practiced by the apostles and the church fathers, it is therefore imperative to urgently engage in apologetics and polemics, so that the church in Africa can preserve and transmit the tradition of truth and biblical Christianity to the coming generations of Christians in Africa. In Doing Apologetics with an African Mindset, readers will learn the following: 1. How to do Apologetics from the African perspective, 2. The ...

James Petigru Boyce (1827 - 1888) was the founding President of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and also served as its first professor of Theology. His Abstract of Systematic Theology is a practical textbook for pastors and students. A philosophical introduction on the science of theology is followed by 16 chapters devoted to the study of God. Boyce then proceeds to creation, providence, the fall of man, Christology, salvation, sanctification, and eschatology.

L. Michael Morales examines the key elements of three major redemption movements in Scripture: the exodus out of Egypt, the second exodus foretold by the prophets, and the new exodus accomplished by Jesus Christ. We discover how the blood of a Passover lamb helps us grasp the significance of Jesus' death on the cross, how the Lord's defeat of Pharaoh foreshadowed Jesus' victory over Satan, how Israel's exodus out of Egypt unfolds the meaning of the resurrection, and much more.

A. W. Tozer earned a legendary reputation as a prophetic voice, and he continues to be a best-selling author half a century after his death. A preacher at heart, he found his greatest joy in practicing the presence of God. Worship was his focus and his passion. His sermons were such strong declarations of what he discovered during private prayer and worship of the triune God that he had both the ability and the Spirit's anointing to move his listeners to wrestle with what God was saying to the church.

For many people, words like doctrine and theology cause their eyes to glaze over, or they find them difficult to understand and struggle to see how they are relevant to daily life. But theology is far from boring; it is the study of God and should lead to awe and wonder as we better understand who God is and what he has done for us. In Core Christianity, author, pastor, and theologian Mike Horton tackles the essential and basic beliefs that all Christians share. What is core to the Christian faith?

In what shape do we find the doctrine of Sola Scriptura today? Many modern Evangelicals see it as a license to ignore history and the creeds in favor of a more splintered approach to Christian living. In the past two decades, Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox apologists have strongly tried to undermine Sola Scriptura as unbiblical, unhistorical, and impractical. But these groups rest their cases on a recent, false take on Sola Scriptura. The ancient, medieval, and classical Protestant view of Sola Scriptura actually has quite a different shape than most opponents and defenders maintain

In this accessible and engaging book, Ralph Wood shows us that J.R.R. Tolkien's masterpiece is a deeply Christian work because it does not blink back the horrors of our terrible times but confronts them with startling honesty.

We live in a polarized time. Christians are quick to conceive of themselves either as theologically minded or worship-minded; either thinking Christians or feeling Christians. The results are damaging: Theology without worship is muted, stifled, and cold, and worship without theology is ungrounded, unrooted, and uninformed. This is not the way it was meant to be.

The atonement is central to Christian theology and essential for following Jesus. In this addition to the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series, pastor Jeremy Treat explains what Scripture teaches about the atonement and how it impacts one’s daily life.

In this audiobook, Tim Chester makes a compelling case that God has given us truth we can touch for a reason: the sacraments embody the promises, grace, and presence of Christ. He looks throughout the Bible to explain how the sacraments are intended to actually shape Christians' lives by giving us physical bread, wine, and water we can point to as an expression of our union with Christ. The aim is to help listeners treasure baptism and Communion and approach them rightly so churches can receive the full benefit God intends them to physically bring us.

An accessible introduction to philosophical theology, this book first explains the scope, relevance, and value of philosophical theology and then shows students how its conceptual tools help us to examine core Christian doctrines: the Trinity, the Incarnation, redemption and the atonement, and resurrection and life after death.

Increasing numbers of conservative evangelicals are denying basic tenets of classical Christian teaching about God, with departures occurring even among those of the Calvinistic persuasion. James Dolezal's All That Is in God provides an exposition of the historic Christian position while engaging with these contemporary deviations. His convincing critique of the newer position he styles "theistic mutualism" is philosophically robust, systematically nuanced, and biblically based.

The study of Paul and his letters can be exciting, challenging, and life-changing, but only if it is done well and only if listeners achieve more than a basic familiarity with the subject. This is exactly what Pauline experts Bruce W. Longenecker and Todd D. Still accomplish with Thinking Through Paul: Audio Lectures.
