In this enlightening treatise, Andrew Murray explores the difference between two covenants, namely the Old Covenant and the New Covenant. Murray's discussion of covenants is instructive, describing the nature of a covenant, the difference between the two covenants, and the transition between them. His ultimate goal, however, is to show "what exactly the blessings are that God has covenanted to bestow upon us." In this volume Murray's spiritual insight and ability for profound teaching shines through. His instruction to the believer can have a renewing and transformative effect. Two Covenants...

Bunyan's primary objective is to define what the Law is, as given to Adam, and later more fully developed through Moses at Sinai. It requires implicit, universal, and perfect obedience, --failure in even the minutest point is not an option for the resulting penalty is eternal ruin. He shows us that a man, under the influence of that law, may reform his conduct, become a member of a Christian church, even, appear to be--"a virgin" waiting for his Lord, but yet to have "step even upon the lowest round of the ladder that reacheth to heaven." While man is a stranger to the new birth, "his destiny...

A guide to the issues involved in sharing the inheritance of summer houses, family cottages and other family-owned/shared properties. Passing It On fills a critical niche in the literature on estate planning. It focuses on the sociological/family-dynamics involved in sharing real property rather than merely on the legal issues of estate reduction. Includes extensive quotes from over 100 summer-house heirs, about how they have managed to keep the property in the family over generations. Now includes in the same volume as an added bonus the companion guide: How To Pass It On by Ken Huggins- a...

Geerhardus Vos devotes this work to a discussion of Jesus' greatest focus in ministry -- the "kingdom of God" (and the "kingdom of heaven," which Vos takes to be referencing the same thing.) Vos begins by connecting Christ's teaching on the kingdom to the Old Testament and its concepts of a Messianic king. Then he moves into the conception of the kingdom during the New Testament with a cursory analysis of the pertinent Greek phrases (but largely accessible to a layman). From there, he moves into the kingdom as it is now, and as it will be in the new heavens and the new earth. Finally, the...

The Atonement is the most significant aspect of our salvation wrought by Jesus Christ on our behalf and this book which deals with the atonement in depth is the most significant contribution to the Christian church by the nineteenth century Scottish Calvinist-Hugh Martin. He was a theologian of extraordinary grasp and great power and is considered one of the masters of Covenant Theology heralding from Scotland. For creative brilliance paired with reverent orthodoxy Martin outshines them all, on both sides of the Atlantic. Martin's keen analytical mind also distinguished him as an outstanding...

Nothing fascinates and grips the imagination more than the Bible's portents regarding the "last days" and "the end of the age"-but of all Scripture, the passages dealing with these events are those most frequently misunderstood. In this classic volume Philip Mauro deals most thoroughly and precisely with two of the major aspects of end-times prophecy-the timeline of Messiah known as the Seventy Weeks of Daniel 9 and The Great Tribulation. A proper method of Bible interpretation is the key that unlocks these mysteries and Mauro has gotten it right. This key work must be included within the...

An easy to read, but totally devastating attack against the heresy of Arminianism. There was a day when Christians knew the Scriptures well enough that the error of Arminianism was recognized for what it was-a heresy, another gospel-that is no gospel at all. Today, it is not uncommon in churches that are ostensibly Bible-believing and Bible-studying congregations to find sitting in the pews, beside one another, those that confess a biblical belief in God's sovereignty and those that self-identify as Arminians. On top of that there are countless less-knowledgable professors that know nothing...

The Church has been divided with respect to many doctrines over the previous 500 years since the Protestant Reformation but one of the greatest divisions centers around the doctrine of baptism-its mode and its subjects. There are those that dogmatically insist that the word "baptizo" and its cognates as found in Scripture means "to immerse" and nothing more. Given this view they must conclude that to be properly baptized, as God commands, then a person must be baptized by immersion-and only by immersion, into the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Are they correct though? Since the majority of...

Jonathan Edwards is widely recognized as probably the greatest intellectual and philosopher the United States has ever produced. The depth and power of his intellect was such that every year new books and articles on his life and work are published. Above all things though, Edwards was a Christian thinker. His life's mission was to know and glorify God through Jesus Christ and to be used by Him so others might do the same. It is in his sermons that we see the true heart of this godly man-he is a philosopher, a watchman, a pastor and a theologian all wrapped up in one. This selection of...
