 | | To Everyone an Answer(Updated) A Case for the Christian Worldview by Francis J. Beckwith, William Lane Craig, J. P. Moreland, James Porter Moreland, Norman L. Geisler, Intervarsity Press, Ivp Academic Hardcover, 396 Pages, Published 2004 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-2735-0, ISBN: 0-8308-2735-8 "In a society fascinated by spirituality but committed to religious pluralism, the Christian worldview faces sophisticated and aggressive opposition. A prior commitment to diversity, with its requisite openness and relativistic outlook, has meant for skeptics, critics and even many Christians that whatever Christianity is, it cannot be exclusively true or salvific. What is needed in this syncretistic era is an authoritative, comprehen ..." |

Is there a secret to spriritual life? Do we need a second blessing? Is sanctification God's work or ours? Is it instantaneous or is it a process? The nature of Christian spirituality has been widely debated throughout the history of the church. The doctrine of sanctification was one of the main fissures separating Luther from the Catholic Church. Even today different groups of Protestants disagree ..." |

Aquinas was impressed, to be sure, but he sighed and stated that he would rather have the complete Incomplete Commentary on Matthew than to be mayor of Paris itself. Thomas's affection for the work attests its great popularity during ..." |

 | | We Believe in One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church(1st Edition) (Ancient Christian Doctrine) by Angelo Di Berardino, Intervarsity Press, Dr Thomas C. Oden, Ivp Academic Hardcover, 368 Pages, Published 2010 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-2535-6, ISBN: 0-8308-2535-5 "When was the church founded? Jesus spoke of the kingdom of God and not of a religious organization subsequently called church. We don't find in the Gospels expressions which make reference to the foundation of a new religious community, a new and distinct community of followers of Jesus. But after the resurrection of Jesus, his followers, as a result of his express command, gather together not only those from the people of Israel but me ..." |

The scholarly quest for the historical Jesus has a distinguished pedigree in modern Western religious and historical scholarship, with names such as Strauss, Schweitzer and Bultmann highlighting the story. Since the early 1990s, when the Jesus quest was reawakened for a third run, numerous significant books have emerged. And the public's attention has been regularly arrested by media coverage, ..." |
 | | We Believe in One Lord Jesus Christ(1st Edition) (Ancient Christian Doctrine) by John Anthony Mcguckin, Thomas C. Oden, Intervarsity Press, Ivp Academic Hardcover, 213 Pages, Published 2009 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-2532-5, ISBN: 0-8308-2532-0 ""Who do you say that I am?" This question that Jesus asked of his disciples, so central to his mission, became equally central to the fledgling church. How would it respond to the Gnostics who answered by saying Jesus was less than fully human? How would it respond to the Arians who contended he was less than fully God? It was these challenges that ultimately provoked the Council of Nicaea in A.D. 325. In this volume covering the first ..." |
 | | We Believe in One God(1st Edition) (Ancient Christian Doctrine) by Gerald L. Bray, Thomas C. Oden, Intervarsity Press, Gerald Lewis Bray, Ivp Academic Hardcover, 201 Pages, Published 2009 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-2531-8, ISBN: 0-8308-2531-2 ""We believe in one God, the Father." The opening clause of the Nicene Creed can be summed up in a single word--monotheism. In the early centuries of the church, this striking doctrine stood starkly against a cultural background of multiple deities and spiritual powers. While it clearly builds on its Jewish heritage, calling God "Father" anticipates the Father-Son relationship in the Godhead that early Christians knew and robustly upheld ..." |
 | | We Believe in the Crucified and Risen Lord(1st Edition) (Ancient Christian Doctrine) by Professor Mark J. Edwards, Intervarsity Press, Ivp Academic Hardcover, 194 Pages, Published 2009 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-2533-2, ISBN: 0-8308-2533-9 "The resurrection changed everything. "But for the resurrection," writes Mark J. Edwards, "there would have been no reason to argue for a union of two natures in the person of Christ, let alone for a dyad or triad in the Godhead. All that he had said and done in the course of his earthly ministry would have sat well enough with the character of a prophet who excelled such predecessors as Isaiah and John the Baptist only in power and clos ..." |
 | | Baptism(1st Edition) Three Views by David F. Wright, Sinclair B. Ferguson, Bruce A. Ware, Intervarsity Press, Ivp Academic Paperback, 200 Pages, Published 2009 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-3856-1, ISBN: 0-8308-3856-2 "The Christian church confesses "one baptism." But the church's answers to how, whom and when to baptize, and even what it means or does, are famously varied. This book provides a forum for thoughtful proponents of three principal evangelical views to state their case, respond to the others, and then provide a summary response and statement. Sinclair Ferguson sets out the case for infant baptism, Bruce Ware presents the case for believer ..." |

Editors Mark Husbands, Roger Lundin and Daniel J. Treier present ten essays from the 2006 Wheaton Theology Conference that explore a Christian approach to beauty and the arts.

The 2006 Wheaton Theology Conference explored a wid ..." |
 | | Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture, New Testament 7, 1-2 Corinthians(2nd Edition) by Gerald Lewis Bray, Thomas C. Oden, Ivp Academic, Intervarsity Press Hardcover, 372 Pages, Published 2006 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-2492-2, ISBN: 0-8308-2492-8 "Paul's letters to the Corinthian church have left a mark on Christian Scripture in a way that could never have been predicted. Here the pastoral issues of a first-century Christian community in what Chrysostom identified as "still the first city in Greece" stand out in bold relief. How was a community shaped by the cross to find its expression in a city that Chrysostom knew to be "full of orators and philosophers" and that "prided itsel ..." |

 | | In Defense of Natural Theology A Post-Humean Assessment by Douglas R. Groothuis, James F. Sennett, Intervarsity Press, Ivp Academic, R. Douglas Geivett Paperback, 336 Pages, Published 2005 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-2767-1, ISBN: 0-8308-2767-6 "The shadow of David Hume, the eighteenth-century Scottish philosopher, has loomed large against all efforts to prove the existence of God from evidence in the natural world. Indeed from Hume's day to ours, the vast majority of philosophical attacks against the rationality of theism have borne an unmistakable Humean aroma. The last forty years, however, have been marked by a resurgence in Christian theism among philosophers, and the time ..." |

Krey, Ivp Academic, Robert Powell Hardcover, 292 Pages, Published 2005 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-1495-4, ISBN: 0-8308-1495-7 "Distinctive in form, content and style, the epistle to the Hebrews offers a profound high Christology and makes an awe-inspiring contribution to our understanding of Jesus as our High Priest. The earliest extant commentary on the letter comes to us in thirty-four homilies from John Chrysostom. These homilies serve to anchor the excerpts chosen by the editors of this volume because of their unique place in the history of interpretation. ..." |
 | | Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture, Old Testament IX Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon by J. Robert Wright, Thomas C. Oden, John Robert Wright, Intervarsity Press, Dr Thomas C. Oden, Ivp Academic Hardcover, 464 Pages, Published 2005 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-1479-4, ISBN: 0-8308-1479-5 "Among the Wisdom Literature of the Old Testament, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and the Song of Solomon were all thought by the early church fathers to have derived from the hand of Solomon. To their minds the finest wisdom about the deeper issues of life prior to the time of God's taking human form in Jesus Christ was to be found in these books. As in all the Old Testament they were quick to find types and intimations of Christ and his church ..." |

Such debate is still important, though, because this issue directly affects every member of Christ's body. What we believe the Bible teaches on these matters shapes nearly all we do in the church. In addition, these questions deserve further thought and reflection because neit ..." |
 | | Mark(2nd Edition) (The Ancient Christian Commentary on Scripture) by Dr Thomas C. Oden, Christopher A. Hall, Intervarsity Press, Ivp Academic Hardcover, 320 Pages, Published 2005 by Ivp Academic ISBN-13: 978-0-8308-1418-3, ISBN: 0-8308-1418-3 "A Christianity Today 1999 Book of the Year! The early church valued the Gospel of Mark for its preservation of the apostolic voice and gospel narrative of Peter. Yet the early church fathers very rarely produced sustained commentary on Mark. This brisk-paced and robust little Gospel, so much enjoyed by modern readers, was overshadowed in the minds of the fathers by the magisterial Gospels of Matthew and John. But now with the assi ..." |
