Description
After forgiveness, what mankind needs most is encouragement, and there is no place where hope can be found like the Old and New Testaments of the Bible.

The author's reflections are a result of his struggles with loss, sin, and disappointment,...

Description
It was to Paul that the Lord gave the meaning of the New Covenant, which is the meaning of the Cross, which incorporates the entire Plan of God. Paul, as no other Prophet or Apostle, tells us how to live a Victorious Life in Christ. Although it runs through the entirety of his Epistles, the greater thrust is found in Romans, Chapters 6, 7, and 8. While one can be Saved without understanding what Paul taught about the Victorious Life, pure and simple,...

Most Bible commentaries take us on a one-way trip from the twentieth century to the first century. But they leave us there, assuming that we can somehow make the return journey on our own. In other words, they focus on the original meaning of the passage but don't discuss its contemporary application. The information they offer is valuable -- but the job is only half done! The NIV Application Commentary Series helps us with both halves of the interpretive...

Chiefly based upon the historical narratives in Genesis and Exodus, the book probably originated as a Jewish apocalyptical work. It also contains a fascinating variety of material not found in the Bible, including details concerning the Fall, Cain and Abel, angels, the Flood,...

The chapters of this book are not chronological. Each chapter is a random stepping stone to lead us deeper into God. Each stepping stone is an entrance.
This book is meant to open our spirits in a greater way to God's world. As to His essence, God is spirit, and we must know Him in that realm. God's world is different from ours. In the earthly realm, there are natural laws, such as the law of gravity. In the spiritual realm, there are also laws....
