90 Days with the Savior
by William Bill Mole Rp Ccac Camsii90 Days with the Saviour is a God inspired journey of transformation from addictive and destructive behaviours. In the book of Matthew Jesus instruct us to, seek first the kingdom of God, or as the Message versions says, steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative and God-provision (6:33), from the first to last exercise, 90 Days with the Saviour was designed to keep you seeking God from the start of your day to the end of your day. Throughout scripture we are told to examine ourselves, to test ourselves, to pray always, to be watchful, to be thankful, to meditate on His word, and to know that God is always with us. 90 Days with the Saviour takes you on that journey each day. Romans 12:2 says …. Let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think (NLT). 90 Days with the Saviour was designed to keep you focused on that journey of transformation, not on your problem but on the only one who can help you overcome the torment and despair. Jesus says in Matthew 11:28, … “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest” this book is intended to bring you into that rest, to give you that new life in Christ, “This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!” (2 Cor. 5:17). 90 Days with the Saviour is intended to help you shed the old you and put on the new you, “ throw off your old sinful nature and your former way of life, which is corrupted by lust and deception. Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God truly righteous and holy.” (Ephesians 4:22-24). Are you ready for a new life? Then you are ready for this book!

95 Theses: Sermon On Indulgences And Grace, 95 Theses (Treasures Of The Taylorian: Reformation Pamphlets Ser. #Vol. 2)
by Martin LutherThe sixteenth-century document that changed the course of Christianity. Monk and theology professor Martin Luther found himself in disagreement with the Roman Catholic Church on the subject of indulgences—certificates sold by the Church that promised to spare their owners from punishment for their sins. With his 95 Theses, Luther proposed a debate on the subject, but ultimately, he was excommunicated and the Protestant Reformation began. This is both a religious document and a historical one—a turning point that marked a challenge to papal authority, set off political conflicts and bloody war in Europe, and led to the remarkable variety of Christian denominations and sects that exist in the world today.

Este libro contiene 950 poderosas oraciones que pondrán fin a las bendiciones retrasadas y detenidas en su vida.

Quiero que sepan que el espíritu de la bendición retrasada y detenida no elimina la bendición, sino que simplemente los frustra al hacerla avanzar. ¿Tiene sentido si un gran avance que los

A.B. Simpson and the Making of Modern Evangelicalism (McGill-Queen's Studies in the History of Religion #2.86)
by Daryn HenryA shrewd synthesizer, gifted popularizer, and inspiring founder of the Christian and Missionary Alliance movement, A.B. Simpson (1843–1919) was enmeshed in the most crucial threads of evangelical Christianity at the turn of the twentieth century. <p><p>Daryn Henry presents Simpson's life and ministry as a vivid, fascinating, and paradigmatic study in evangelical religious culture, during a time when the conservative wing of the movement has often been overlooked. Simpson's ministry, Henry explains, fused the classic evangelical emphasis on revivalist conversion with the intensification of that sensibility in the quest for the deeper Christian life of holiness. Recovering the practice of divine healing, Simpson emphasized a dynamically empowered and supernaturally animated Christianity that would spill over into nascent Pentecostalism. His encouragement of cross-cultural missions was part of a trend that unleashed the dramatic rise of world Christianity across the Global South. All the while, his Biblical literalism, antagonism to modernist theology, campaigns against evolution, and views on premillennialism, Biblical prophecy, and the role of Israel in the end times made Simpson a precursor of the fundamentalist melees of subsequent decades. <p><p>From his upbringing in rural Canada and confessional Scottish Presbyterianism, Simpson journeyed into the heart of American evangelicalism revolving around his base in New York City. Against most previous writing on Simpson, Henry's biography presents both continuities and discontinuities in the development of modern interdenominational evangelicalism out of the denominational evangelicalism of the nineteenth century.

A.D. 381: Heretics, Pagans, and the Dawn of the Monotheistic State
by Charles Freeman“A chronicle of one significant year in Christian history.” —Kirkus ReviewsIn A.D. 381, Theodosius, emperor of the eastern Roman empire, issued a decree in which all his subjects were required to subscribe to a belief in the Trinity of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This edict defined Christian orthodoxy and brought to an end a lively and wide-ranging debate about the nature of God; all other interpretations were now declared heretical. It was the first time in a thousand years of Greco-Roman civilization free thought was unambiguously suppressed. Why has Theodosius’s revolution been airbrushed from the historical record? In this groundbreaking book, acclaimed historian Charles Freeman argues that Theodosius’s edict and the subsequent suppression of paganism not only brought an end to the diversity of religious and philosophical beliefs throughout the empire, but created numerous theological problems for the Church, which have remained unsolved. The year A.D. 381, as Freeman puts it, was “a turning point which time forgot.”“A well-argued and -documented study of the rise of the monotheistic state in the late Roman Empire and its aftereffects.” —Library Journal
