Development of Catholic Doctrine: Evolution, Revolution, or an Organic Process?
ISBN: 9781430321064 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. C.S. Lewis, the famous Anglican writer, once wrote: "The very possibility of progress demands that there should be an unchanging element . . . the positive historical statements made by Christianity have the power . . . of receiving, without intrinsic change, the increasing complexity of meaning which increasing knowledge puts into them" ("God in the Dock," Eerdmans, Grand Rapids, MI, 1970, 44-47). Doctrine clearly develops within Scripture ("progressive revelation"). Examples: doctrines of the afterlife, the Trinity, the Messiah (eventually revealed as God the Son), the Holy Spirit (Divine...

Catholic Converts and Conversion
ISBN: 9781300918608 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 237 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The last 25 years have been a very exciting time in the Catholic world, in terms of an increasing flow of converts. Dr. Scott Hahn, a former Presbyterian minister, was received into the Church at Easter 1986, and immediately started making a splash with his exciting conversion testimony. Meanwhile, Karl Keating began publishing "The Catholic Answers Newsletter" in August 1986. Thus, that year may be regarded as the starting-date of the current "Catholic apologetics / influx of converts revival" -- with Hahn and Keating as the two founding fathers. I tell my own conversion story in Part II of...

Revelation! 1001 Bible Answers to Theological Questions
ISBN: 9781304508539 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 250 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. My aim is to make it easier to quickly find biblical answers to theological questions that are of perennial importance. I presuppose the inspiration and infallibility of the Bible, and this book is for Christians who accept those notions. This volume provides Bible passages (usually one verse; sometimes a few together) that are (in my opinion) the very best "answers" to a large number of one-sentence questions. The format might remind one of the popular TV game show "Jeopardy," where the contestants are given a piece of information and have to come up with a question that it is the "answer"...

More Biblical Evidence For Catholicism
ISBN: 9781430322436 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 186 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. My purpose is to accumulate biblical arguments in support of distinctively Catholic doctrinal positions, with Protestant readers particularly in mind. I also touch upon the closely related subjects of sola Scriptura (the Protestant notion of Scripture Alone), the Catholic Church's high regard for Holy Scripture, and critiques from our separated Christian brethren with regard to matters of ecclesiology (Church) and Tradition. Additionally, a fair degree of emphasis has been devoted to certain common and erroneous charges against the Catholic Church and to dialogue (back-and-forth discussion),...

Pillars of Sola Scriptura: Replies to Whitaker, Goode, & Biblical Proofs for Bible Alone
ISBN: 9781300154822 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. "Sola Scriptura" ("Scripture Alone") is considered one of the two "pillars" -- along with "sola fide," or "faith alone" -- of the Protestant Revolt of the sixteenth century. It's fundamental in Protestant thinking with regard to the all-important issue of Christian authority and determination of true theology. Most Protestant defenders of "Scripture Alone" contend that it is taught in the Bible. I maintain that their alleged prooftexts are invariably logically circular and fatally weak. William Whitaker (1548-1595) was an Anglican apologist. His masterwork was "Disputation on Holy Scripture,"...

Beatles, Motown, Beach Boys, Etc.: Classic Rock Discographies, Commentary, and Mono vs. Stereo Analysis
ISBN: 9781105754777 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Motown native and baby boomer Dave Armstrong (born in 1958) provides a goldmine of information in this homage to classic rock, with massive, fact-filled discographies of songs by Motown artists, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, Detroit Rock (1965-1975), Buddy Holly, Sam Cooke, and Van Morrison: including data concerning stereo and mono versions, recording dates, producers, songwriters, Billboard chart positions, best-sounding recordings, and many other facts. Also contains chapters on the topics of rockabilly, a "blues and country musical pilgrimage" to the South, recent landmark albums by Paul...

Victorian King James Version of the New Testament: A Selection for Lovers of Elizabethan and Victorian Literature
ISBN: 9781312358300 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 592 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Many revisions of the King James (Authorized) Bible of 1611 exist; even revisions of revisions have been done (ASV to NASB / RV to RSV / KJV to NKJV, etc.). The present work is a similar "hybrid". I dont know Greek, and am therefore not qualified in the slightest to actually translate (and did not translate a single word). But I know English (as a professional author) and know the Bible (as a longtime Christian apologist) very well. This work, accordingly, isnt technically a new translation at all, but rather a "selection" or collection of what I personally felt were the best renderings that...

Orthodoxy and Catholicism: A Comparison
ISBN: 9781312511798 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It has been my strong desire for some time now to revise my book in order to emphasize ecumenism and unity proportionately a lot more than in the first (2004) edition. I'm much more interested in finding common ground. I've also learned a thing or two about Orthodoxy over the past decade. I wanted this volume to be able to read by Orthodox and also Eastern Catholics, without having seizures or going into apoplectic fits (caused by my ignorance or overly polemical or biased writing). I exaggerate, of course, but perhaps not by much Toward that end I have enlisted a very qualified Eastern...

Mass Movements
ISBN: 9781300549116 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume consists of essays on 1) the distinction between the extreme radical Catholic reactionaries and mainstream "traditionalists," 2) the New (Pauline, Novus Ordo) Mass and its liturgical abuses, and 3) genuine, orthodox (not silly liberal) ecumenism. Radical Catholic reactionaries have been misled by various errors of the nature of what is called "rigorism." This recurring problem throughout Church history is seen in groups such as the Donatists, Montanists, Jansenists, and the Old Catholics who left the Church after Vatican I (1870): an error of thinking and out-of-whack perspective;...

The Quotable Augustine: Distinctively Catholic Elements in His Theology
ISBN: 9781300149835 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 245 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Protestants (especially Reformed Protestants, or Calvinists) often assert that St. Augustine's views were closer to theirs than to the present-day Catholic Church. My aim is to systematically document St. Augustine's advocacy of positions that historic Protestantism has expressly rejected, and (conversely) detail his opposition to some doctrines or beliefs that it has (generally speaking) espoused. Quotations are drawn from 44 separate works of St. Augustine, arranged under 157 topics, and also arranged chronologically within topics, insofar as that can be determined. This helps to clarify...

Biblical Catholic Salvation: "Faith Working Through Love"
ISBN: 9781304834157 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 187 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Catholic apologist and author Dave Armstrong leads the reader on a fascinating theological journey through many different aspects related to salvation and justification theology (soteriology). Special emphasis is devoted to demonstrating that Catholics do not believe in ""works-salvation."" It may surprise some to learn that Catholics, like Protestants, embrace Grace Alone and reject Pelagianism and also semi-Pelagianism. The overwhelming theme is the biblical evidence for Catholic soteriological positions. To that end, there are 379 biblical passages fully written out (RSV), for the...

Bible Conversations: Catholic-Protestant Dialogues on the Bible, Tradition, and Salvation
ISBN: 9781430321040 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Fifteen dialogues loosely based on encounters of a Catholic apologist with Protestants, over the course of nearly five years of Internet discussions on lists, bulletin boards, and private correspondence. The most important and fundamental issues that divide Protestants and Catholics are dealt with: the relationship of Bible and tradition, the authority of the Church, whether the Church and tradition can be infallible like the Bible, how one is saved, the relationship of faith and works, whether Catholics believe in "salvation by works," grace alone, etc.

Biblical Catholic Apologetics: A Collection of Essays
ISBN: 9781300866206 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The carefully selected "essays" presented here were originally written and posted on my blog between the years of 2000 and 2013. I consider them to be some of my best: the "cream of the crop" of what has not yet been published in a book. A few have been condensed down from their original dialogue formats. Per the subtitle, I'd like this collection to be more along the lines of essays per se, with less written-out Bible verses: a bit more readable and flowing, so to speak. A good deal of my apologetics writing or research is more for the purpose of reference / documentation rather than...

Examination and rational comparison of the Christian and postmodernist philosophies, with in-depth treatment of such important topics as the problem of evil, the "problem of good" and meaningfulness in atheism, miracles, the relationship of Christianity to science and scientific method, atheist unproven axioms and premises, and the cosmological and teleological arguments for God's existence.

Catholic Church Fathers: Patristic and Scholarly Proofs
ISBN: 9781304368591 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Protestants and Catholics both claim that the early Church heritage of theology and broad consensus of the Church fathers favors their own view. Protestants, from the beginning, claimed to be "reformers" of the Catholic Church; that is, they felt themselves to be hearkening back to the more pure doctrines of the early Church and the Church fathers, rather than overturning historic Catholic doctrine. I shall contend in this book, by means of massive documentation, that the "historical case" for Catholicism becomes stronger as the accumulation of patristic evidence piles up. Catholics need not...

Science and Christianity: Close Partners or Mortal Enemies?
ISBN: 9781105537332 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It's very fashionable nowadays to assert that Christianity and science are antithetical, or that God has been ruled out of science or disproven (particularly by Darwinian evolution), or that science is based on reason and evidence, whereas religion (being faith-based) supposedly cares little or nothing for same, or that one cannot consistently be a Christian and also a "real" scientist. I shall contend that not only are science and Christianity completely compatible, but that modern science would not have even gotten off the ground if it hadn't been for medieval, scholastic, Catholic thought....

Biblical Proofs for an Infallible Church and Papacy
ISBN: 9781105613166 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume consists entirely of materials posted on my website / blog: "Biblical Evidence for Catholicism" written between 1997 and 2011: several in direct response to Protestant queries or challenges. I've revised them in order to clarify the thoughts and to "tighten" up the arguments. My goal is to defend and clarify what Catholics believe with regard to ecclesiology, or the doctrine of the Church (including the papacy), why we do, and to demonstrate that Catholic beliefs are in harmony with Holy Scripture and the doctrines held by the early Church. Protestants deny the infallibility of...

Pope Francis Explained: Survey of Myths, Legends, and Catholic Defenses in Harmony with Tradition
ISBN: 9781304831606 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 127 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. It seems that everyone wants to make the pope into their own image. Those outside the Church want him to be so-called "progressive" and are more than willing to project this attribute onto him, in a huge campaign of wishful thinking. But radical Catholic reactionaries, on the extreme right on the Catholic ecclesiological spectrum, become alarmed that the Church is compromising itself. A third group of obedient orthodox Catholics understand the pope's role and the nature and status of Catholic dogmas (which do not change), yet are confused by something a new pope says or does. Their concern is...
