The Chemical Marriage

Manly Palmer Hall

The self-admitted author of The Chemical Marriage, Johann Valentin Andreæ, born in Württemberg in 1586, was twenty-eight years of age when that work was first published. It was presumably written about twelve years prior to its publication--or when the author was fifteen or sixteen years old. The fact is almost incredible that one so young could produce a volume containing the wealth of symbolic thought and philosophy hidden between the lines of The Chemical Marriage. This book makes the earliest known reference to Christian Rosencreutz, and is generally regarded as the third of the series of original Rosicrucian manifestoes. As a symbolic work, the book itself is hopelessly irreconcilable with the statements made by Andreæ concerning it. The story of The Chemical Marriage relates in detail a series of incidents occurring to an aged man, presumably the Father C.R.C. of the Fama and Confessio. If Father C.R.C. was born in 1378, as stated in the Confessio, and is identical with the Christian Rosencreutz of The Chemical Marriage, he was elevated to the dignity of a Knight of the Golden Stone in the eighty-first year of his life (1459). In the light of his own statements, it is inconceivable that Andreæ could have been Father Rosy Cross.

Fresh Oil

Chris Garcia

What if the greatest blessing we could ever receive is the manifested presence and power of God?

After reading this book, I will understand the importance of developing an intimate and personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. As I go deeper with the Lord, I will experience His love and understand His power and authority in an entirely new way.

There is a famine in the church at large; it is a lack of fresh oil in our personal fellowship with the Holy Spirit. The Western mindset is built upon the principles of intellect, philosophy, and reason. These principles are not inherently wrong, but they are a far cry from the passionate, biblical approach to engaging with God. The knowledge of God is so much more than intellect and reason. It is more than a mental understanding; rather, it is a deep, intimate, spiritual knowing and life-union with Christ.

The spiritual affects the natural, and in Fresh Oil, Chris Garcia–a pastor and popular social media minister with over 100,000 subscribers to his YouTube channel–helps believers develop a greater hunger for God's presence and Word and increase their sensitivity to the Holy Spirit.

This book will help readers to…
Stop being led by their flesh and an unrenewed thought life.

Experience a more exciting prayer life and enter a greater level of worship and victory.

Understand their positional reality and the victory that has been offered to them through Christ.

Teaching simple keys to help believers experience a greater awareness of God's presence, this book will help stir readers into deeper communion with the Holy Spirit, producing fresh oil in their lives.

Joseph Alleine

A Sure Guide to Heaven is a profound and engaging exploration of the necessity of true conversion, penned by Puritan writer, Joseph Alleine. In this timeless classic, originally published in 1671, Alleine helps readers to discern the nature of genuine conversion while addressing common misconceptions that can lead to spiritual deception. Drawing from biblical wisdom, particularly Matthew 7:13–14, he ensures that readers are not misled into believing they are converted when they may not be.With clarity Alleine outlines the marks of an unconverted soul, encouraging readers to take an honest self-inventory as suggested in 2 Corinthians 13:5–6. He compassionately warns those who linger on the fence about the miseries of remaining unconverted, both in this life and the next, while providing compelling motives for embracing the transformative power of faith.The book culminates in practical “directions to the unconverted,” offering a pathway to grasp the saving faith that Christ extends to all.Though Joseph Alleine's ministry was brief, his impact endures through this work, which has been reprinted countless times. A Sure Guide to Heaven stands out as an accessible and straightforward example of Puritan writing, making it a must-read for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of faith and salvation.

The Message of Ecclesiastes

Derek Kidner

What is life all about? In the end, is it no more than a wisp of vapor, a puff of wind, a mere breath? So says the Preacher in the book of Ecclesiastes. But is this the whole message of Ecclesiastes?
With imagination and clarity, Derek Kidner introduces this unusual Old Testament book that speaks so powerfully to each new generation. He reveals how the Preacher confronts difficult questions and examines extremes of human experience, facing the fear that God is distant and nothing has meaning. Finally, however, we are led to encounter the God who was present all along, who cares about the details of our lives.
Part of the beloved Bible Speaks Today series, The Message of Ecclesiastes offers an insightful, readable exposition of the biblical text and thought-provoking discussion of how its meaning relates to contemporary life. Used by students and teachers around the world, the Bible Speaks Today commentaries are ideal for those studying or preaching the Bible and anyone who wants to delve deeper into the text. This revised edition of a classic volume features lightly updated language and current NRSV Scripture quotations with a new interior design.
