Zebedee's Calling - A Hero's...

Joel Francis

Zebedee's Calling brings 11th Century England to life, with key battles and royal successions, as well as the efforts among a group of zealous Christians to have access to Scripture written in English.

Although this story is historical fiction, it parallels our time. The accounts of Christian leaders and martyrs who strove to make the Bible accessible to the people draw attention to the immeasurable value of Scripture, and how blessed we are to possess it today.

The Tearing of the Temple...

J. Daniel Hays, Adam W. Jones

"And behold, the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And the earth shook, and the rocks were split." —Matthew 27:51 
Many believe that the tearing of the temple curtain means that Jesus's death gave us direct access to God. But this idea is not obvious in the Gospels themselves. What if there is a better explanation? 
In this book, Adam W. Jones and J. Daniel Hays argue that God the Father tore the curtain of the temple as an act of mourning over his Son's death. This interpretation has been neglected, though it has ancient precedent. In Jewish and Greco-Roman cultures, tearing clothes was a common expression of grief. And early Christian interpreters often linked this custom to the tearing of the temple curtain. 
The Tearing of the Temple Curtain provides insights on ancient culture, God, grief, and how we approach Good Friday.

Why The Pre-Tribulation Rapture...

Leslie Rendell

Why the pre-tribulation rapture theory is false is a brief introduction to what is wrong with the theory of a pre-tribulation rapture. As you read through this book, you will come to understand why this theory is unbiblical.
Those who believe in this theory are unfortunately looking for an escape from the time of the tribulation. Their studies, if they do any at all, are in the hope of finding an escape clause in God's plans for humanity. They cling to straws and errors in the interpretations of the times in which we live. They take most of their beliefs from pastors who have themselves misunderstood the scriptures. Not only that, but they do not do their due diligence and study God's holy bible for the truth that is concealed in this amazing book.
There are two very important scriptures that we should all take to heart when we study the bible. Read Pro 25
Pro 25:2 It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings.
So we see here that God has concealed the truth on many matters throughout the bible and it is our task to dig into the scriptures to find the truth. The other scripture that backs up this idea in found in.
Isa 28:10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
These verses advise us to seek the truth.
To know the truth on this matter is to prepare the church for what is surely coming in the near future. A time of great tribulation. A time the church will have to live through. Christians should not put their hope in a rapture to take them out of the world. They must use the little amount of time left to prepare for the tribulation, and a time when Satan will persecute the church.
