This book The Cross and the Crown, By Ken Chant, covers the earthly ministry of Jesus. This is a companion book to both Emmanuel, which shows the full humanity and the deity of Christ, and the significance of this to us, and the book Highly Exalted, which covers the heavenly ministry of Jesus. The first section The Cross, reveals what the suffering of the cross meant to Jesus; what it means to us, and its wonderful power to redeem and to change our lives; to save and heal and deliver us from the fear of death. The second section The Crown, deals with the resurrection. This included the proofs...

This book is built upon two premises. The lordship of Christ and the authority of scripture.

In trying to explore the wonder of the man who is also God, Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ of Glory, my first intention was to devote one part to his humanity and a second part to his deity. But the aim proved impossible. Humanity and deity are so interwoven in Christ that they cannot properly be separated. His full humanity cannot be understood apart from his deity, nor can his full deity be understood apart from his humanity. Still, I have struggled to present all that it means to know Jesus as the Man of Galilee, and also what it means to see him enthroned as the Son of God at the right...

My first intention was to write one book on the humanity of Christ, and a second on his deity. But the aim proved impossible. Humanity and deity are so interwoven in the Saviour that they cannot properly be separated. His full humanity cannot be understood apart from his deity, nor can his full deity be understood apart from his humanity. So the pages of both volumes (Emmanuel Part One and Part Two) explore aspects of Jesus as both the Son of Man and the Son of God, and more particularly, what this doctrine should mean to us in our daily lives, and how to apply its ramifications to Christian...

Reading Paul's letter to the Ephesians should be enough to convert anyone to Christ. Try to imagine a devout Christian of our time suddenly converting to the worship of the Greek god Zeus, and being willing to endure fearful hardship, floggings, torture, imprisonment and eventual execution, in order to spread his beliefs around the world. Not only that, but this new convert now derides all other religions, and passionately insists that salvation and eternal life can be found only through total belief in Zeus and the other deities who were presumed to reside on Mt Olympus What sort of...

Just over 2000 years ago an unknown Jewish author wrote a history of the miseries his people suffered under three Syrian tyrants during the second century before Christ. He opened his work with an eloquent preface that has ever since been a model for countless authors. It is such an apt description of the proper motivation for writing a book, and of the toil required that I am going to purloin it for my own preface. He complains about the mass of facts and figures that confronted him and the difficulty of compressing everything he wanted to say into one volume. But nothing daunted, he pressed...

This book, Faith Dynamics, is about the principles of faith. It details the difference between the aspect of faith or "believing" as it relates to redemption, and the use of "faith" as a force in accomplishing things for God in this world Jesus assuredly said: "Whatever you ask in prayer believing, you will receive." Never have we needed prayer to work, as we need it today. How to develop belief and apply it to the tasks of "moving mountains" in our lives is what this book endeavors to share with the reader/student. The goal and intent is that each reader will reach new levels of empowerment...

"How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;" (Hebrews 2:3). Part of our deliverance rests in the knowledge of our salvation. Those who neglect it are unable to attain the fullness of deliverance and blessing God has provided for His children. Our salvation, born of God, is immense and immeasurable indeed This book, Great Words of the Gospel, will open up your understanding to that vastness. The various paradigms of our salvation in Christ, are introduced and explored through a...

Between science rightly understood and the Bible rightly understood there is no conflict. Both disciplines (science and religion) begin with an affirmation of faith and stand upon propositions that are not susceptible to formal proof. Those propositions are stated here, their reasonableness is demonstrated, and the claim that science is based only on fact without faith while religion is based only on faith without fact is shown to be nonsense.

Five hundred years ago Martin Luther changed the world by his preaching and his writing, which included his superb Commentary on Paul's Letter to the Galatians. How can it ever be surpassed, or even equalled? Probably, it will stand supreme until Christ returns Happily, the book you are holding makes not even a slight claim of equalling Luther's masterpiece. However, it does have the merit of being modern, and easy to read, and it is certainly Luther's equal in its passion for Christ and its commitment to the supremacy of scripture. In these pages you will find a lively presentation of what...
