Excerpt from Truths for the People: Or, Several Points in Theology, Plainly Stated, for Begineers I. The word theology means a discourse con cerning God. It is not found in the Scriptures.

JESUS. The name means different things to different people. Whether a skeptic, an agnostic, an inquirer, or a convinced Christian, this book will cause you to consider the mysteries Jesus claimed of Himself and help you know Jesus experientially and personally. To do so we must know what the Bible says about Him - because Jesus says that’s where we shall find him – especially if we share our burdens with him. Many who have looked into the Word of God and the historic Christian faith have joined the unnumbered cloud of witnesses that confess the name of Jesus (Emmanuel) “God with us.” Table of Contents: Preface to the Second Revised Edition 1.

The Faith of a Middle-Aged Man by Henry Kingman Pdf
Excerpt from The Faith of a Middle-Aged Man: A Little Book of Reassurance for Troubled Times This is not a book primarily for scholars or for students of theology, but for plain people - the men and women whom we are meeting daily in our homes and on the streets, preoccupied with innumerable cares. There may chance to be scholars and theologians among them; but, if so, their interest in these chapters will come not from their wisdom but from the elemental heart-hunger that is common to us all, the hunger after a life made satisfying by its hold on God. So it is not a book on theology but on successful living. Not by one who has succeeded, but by one who has been much helped by Him who did succeed and is still bringing wavering followers to a triumphant issue in the face of heavy odds.

Clear and Simple as the Truth by Francis-Noël Thomas,Mark Turner Pdf
Everyone talks about style, but no one explains it. The authors of this book do; and in doing so, they provoke the reader to consider style, not as an elegant accessory of effective prose, but as its very heart. At a time when writing skills have virtually disappeared, what can be done? If only people learned the principles of verbal correctness, the essential rules, wouldn't good prose simply fall into place? Thomas and Turner say no. Attending to rules of grammar, sense, and sentence structure will no more lead to effective prose than knowing the mechanics of a golf swing will lead to a hole-in-one. Furthermore, ten-step programs to better writing exacerbate the problem by failing to recognize, as Thomas and Turner point out, that there are many styles with different standards. In the first half of Clear and Simple, the authors introduce a range of styles--reflexive, practical, plain, contemplative, romantic, prophetic, and others--contrasting them to classic style. Its principles are simple: The writer adopts the pose that the motive is truth, the purpose is presentation, the reader is an intellectual equal, and the occasion is informal. Classic style is at home in everything from business memos to personal letters, from magazine articles to university writing. The second half of the book is a tour of examples--the exquisite and the execrable--showing what has worked and what hasn't. Classic prose is found everywhere: from Thomas Jefferson to Junichirō Tanizaki, from Mark Twain to the observations of an undergraduate. Here are many fine performances in classic style, each clear and simple as the truth. Originally published in 1994.

Urban Apologetics examines the legitimate issues that Black communities have with Western Christianity and shows how the gospel of Jesus Christ—rather than popular, socioreligious alternatives—restores our identity. African Americans have long confronted the challenge of dignity destruction caused by white supremacy. While many have found meaning and restoration of dignity in the black church, others have found it in ethnocentric socioreligious groups and philosophies. These ideologies have grown and developed deep traction in the black community and beyond. Revisionist history, conspiracy theories, and misinformation about Jesus and Christianity are the order of the day. Many young African Americans are disinterested in Christianity and others are leaving the church in search of what these false religious ideas appear to offer, a spirituality more indigenous to their history and ethnicity. Edited by Dr. Eric Mason and featuring a top-notch lineup of contributors, Urban Apologetics is the first book focused entirely on cults, religious groups, and ethnocentric ideologies prevalent in the black community. The book is divided into three main parts: Discussions on the unique context for urban apologetics so that you can better understand the cultural arguments against Christianity among the Black community. Detailed information on cults, religious groups, and ethnic identity groups that many urban evangelists encounter—such as the Nation of Islam, Kemetic spirituality, African mysticism, Hebrew Israelites, Black nationalism, and atheism. Specific tools for urban apologetics and community outreach. Ultimately, Urban Apologetics applies the gospel to black identity to show that Jesus is the only one who can restore it. This is an essential resource to equip those doing the work of ministry and apology in urban communities with the best available information.
