Back to the Bible by Woodrow Michael Kroll Pdf

What is the cost of biblical illiteracy? What is the price we pay for our failure to know and apply biblical truth? There was a time in recent history when immoral, deviant, or illegal behavior disqualified a person from praise or emulation, no matter how noteworthy his or her accomplishments. This is no longer true. Yet Gallup studies show that 85 percent of Americans are believers. These facts establish the sad reality that a large majority of Christians are biblically illiterate, spiritual juveniles. In this challenging, encouraging, and practical menu for biblical investigation and application, Back to the Bible provides a cogent discussion of the problem and meaningful answers for the believer hungry for more in his walk with God.

Come Home by James MacDonald Pdf

The prodigal. The wanderer. The skeptic. The rebel. Each of us knows someone who has walked away from God, and it is heartbreaking and bewildering. We wonder how to reach out to them and bring them back, but often it seems impossible. Maybe you yourself are the one who has walked away and sees little reason to return to faith and the church. This book's invitation is this: Come home. It invites the departed to return and offers the promise of the gospel—that all wrongs and sins can be forgiven through Jesus. There is no expiration on the promise of forgiveness and the open arms of Christ, so no matter how long the wanderer has wandered, he or she is still welcome. All hurts can be healed, all brokenness mended. Just come home. Whether you are a family member or friend of the prodigal, or whether you are that person, this book offers hope and an open invitation to return the safety of forgiveness and restoration in Jesus.

The Back Door Introduction to the Bible by John Kaltner,Steven L. McKenzie Pdf

The Bible's influence on Western culture is profound: its stories are referenced in commerce, the arts, and beyond. Know the stories, and you understand the allusion in a commercial, a painting, or a movie. Living in the Western world, once cannot be culturally literate without knowing something about the Bible. A product of a very different world, the Bible can be hard to read and difficult to understand. In explaining the customs and social mores of the time, the authors take the reader to a level of understanding where the real significance of a story is more clearly revealed.--

A History of the Bible by John Barton Pdf

A literary history of our most influential book of all time, by an Oxford scholar and Anglican priest In our culture, the Bible is monolithic: It is a collection of books that has been unchanged and unchallenged since the earliest days of the Christian church. The idea of the Bible as "Holy Scripture," a non-negotiable authority straight from God, has prevailed in Western society for some time. And while it provides a firm foundation for centuries of Christian teaching, it denies the depth, variety, and richness of this fascinating text. In A History of the Bible, John Barton argues that the Bible is not a prescription to a complete, fixed religious system, but rather a product of a long and intriguing process, which has inspired Judaism and Christianity, but still does not describe the whole of either religion. Barton shows how the Bible is indeed an important source of religious insight for Jews and Christians alike, yet argues that it must be read in its historical context--from its beginnings in myth and folklore to its many interpretations throughout the centuries. It is a book full of narratives, laws, proverbs, prophecies, poems, and letters, each with their own character and origin stories. Barton explains how and by whom these disparate pieces were written, how they were canonized (and which ones weren't), and how they were assembled, disseminated, and interpreted around the world--and, importantly, to what effect. Ultimately, A History of the Bible argues that a thorough understanding of the history and context of its writing encourages religious communities to move away from the Bible's literal wording--which is impossible to determine--and focus instead on the broader meanings of scripture.
