The Christian community sits upon a vast resource of vintage exposition, exegetic and apologetic writings from a host of writers who have long since been ushered into the Lord's presence. Most of these books are out of print and some are difficult to obtain. In general, these writings sustain a devotional depth and a Christ-centered attraction that is void in much of today's Christian literature. The author has endeavored to include some of th...

The overall theme of Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Solomon is succinctly stated in Proverbs 9:10: "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding." Concisely put, to know God is what knowledge means and such understanding should prompt fearful awe of Him. In his early years, Solomon's son learned that "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise w...

Relativity and Redemption is a devotional exposition of the often neglected books of Judges and Ruth. With an engaging and accessible style, the author unpacks the teaching of these books in their historical contexts, while making pertinent applications to modern believers. He quotes some of the best Bible expositors of the past (Matthew Henry, Hamilton Smith, H.L. Rossier among others), and also brings the fruit of his own study to bear on th...

Many Christians have read the books of Jeremiah and Lamentations, but few (including myself, until recently) have made these a topic of thorough study. Some contend that the prophetic narrative of Jeremiah and its epilogue, Lamentations, have Jewish historical significance only and no application for the Church today. Others choose to merely skim these texts because their "doom and gloom" format is distressing, they may glean little from these...

Many believers today are wondering if the Church's present lethargic state is the final curtain call for the Church Age. Many of the great revivals of the last three centuries began when a few consecrated Christians desperate for God, disgusted by the spiritual darkness of their time, pleaded with the Lord to do the spectacular. In response to those prayers, a great work of grace invigorated the Church, and many believers were emboldened to pr...

From Scripture, we will learn of God's holy anger, then commence upon the difficult task of aligning our selfish anger and unrighteous behavior with His righteousness. This task will require each of us to honestly evaluate our anger tendencies, to remove internal conditions that frequently induce angry feelings, and to learn techniques to mange our anger in a God-honoring way. If you mismanage anger, this book will guide you into better self-c...

It was refreshing and encouraging to read a book, that did not focus on man's needs or a "how to" method for success. Behold the Saviour focuses on the Lord Jesus: His Godhood, human goodness and glories as revealed in the multi-faceted presentation of Holy Scriptures. For when we behold Him in His glory we are "changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord" (2 Cor. 3:18). -Anonymous Pre-Publication Reviewe...

The Fruitful Vine contains six sections. The first, The Marital Union, supplies the biblical foundation for the remainder of the book: Why was marriage instituted, and what was God's best plan for marriage? The chapter "To Marry or Not?" offers guidance and encouragement to unmarried women, both those called to "singleness" and those "maids in waiting." The following three sections pertain to the natural roles a married woman will find the mos...

This book deals with a much neglected portion of God's Word which looks at the vitally important themes of headship and the glory of God. The author has not avoided issues and has included thorough research both from Church history and the original language of the New Testament. The section dealing with the objections to the head covering reveals the desperate attempts that have been made in recent times to avoid the clear implications of the ...

The Teacher's Guide is the sixteen-lesson Study Guide for The Fruitful Bough, but with answers provided for each question. There is plenty of empty space after each answer for the study leader to personally respond to each question and exercise, and he is encouraged to do so.

The Study Guide provides sixteen lessons formatted with questions and exercises for each of the sixteen chapters of The Fruitful Bough. Weekly Bible studies are preferred, it is my recommendation to read one chapter of The Fruitful Bough and complete the associated lesson each week.

When will a Christian man find the most joy and satisfaction in life? When he lives out that which he was created for - this is God's authentic man. If married, he will pursue biblical companionship with his wife, shepherd his children, and satisfy his family's needs. Married or not, the fruit-laden bough represents a spiritually-minded man who serves others through wise leadership, humble service, and a selfless example. The Fruitful Bough is...

Are you consistently having close encounters with the Lord? Do you hear His still, quiet voice as you mediate on His Word and petition Him in prayer? If not, it is time to take action - it is time to respond to His invitation. God desires your presence and is inviting you to have contact and communion with Him. The extent to which we respond to this invitation and have contact with God's nature will ultimately determine our wherewithal to know...

World religion is an exhaustive system of doings apart from God's truth and God's enablement. How does world religion obscure divine truth, thus preventing man from personally knowing God? What general trends are con-sistently found in humanized religion? What advantage does biblical Christianity have over the religions of the world? Why should I trust Jesus Christ alone to secure eternal life? These questions and many others will be posed and...

Is there legitimate evidence for the supernatural realm? If so, who originated such influences? If there is a God, how can we be sure that the Bible is His message to mankind? Is the Bible we have today authentic, and can we trust what it says? What advantage does Christianity have over the religions of the world? These questions and others will be posed and rationally addressed. If you are a Christian attending a secular university or are in ...

Every religion claims divine authorship for its "holy book." But when one asks whether the claims to divine authorship are supported by history, archeology and sound scholarship, the answer is usually a resounding "no!" But is this the case with the Bible? Is the Bible simply another book mixing history and historical fiction? Is the Bible mythology or Divine revelation? This small booklet brings together the facts of history, archeology, cosm...
