Philip Schaff’s classic work colloquially known as The Early Church Fathers is an invaluable resource filled with the primary documents and early theological building blocks for the Christian church. Comprised of thirty-eight volumes, it is broken into three parts: the Ante-Nicene Fathers, and Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, First and Second Series.

Internationally respected scholar Richard Bauckham offers a brief, engaging study of divine revelation in Scripture. He probes the deep meaning of well-known moments in the biblical story in order to address the key question the Bible is designed to answer: Who is God? Accessible for laypeople and important to scholars, this volume begins by exploring three key events in the Bible in which God is revealed: Jacob's dream at Bethel (the revelation of the divine presence), Moses at the burning bush (the revelation of the divine Name), and Moses on Mount Sinai (the revelation of the divine character). In each case, Bauckham traces these themes through the rest of Scripture. He then shows how the New Testament builds on the Old by exploring three revelatory events in Mark's Gospel, events that reveal the Trinity: Jesus's baptism, transfiguration, and crucifixion. This book is based on the Frumentius Lectures for 2015 at the Ethiopian Graduate School of Theology in Addis Ababa and on the Haywood Lectures for 2018 at Acadia Divinity College, Nova Scotia.

This book is not for spiritual sissies. It is not for the fainthearted. It is also not intended in any way to condemn or frighten anyone, but it is intended to set a fire in the midst of the modern church and call the children of God back to holiness and purity and the fear of the Lord. It is time to prepare our wedding garments. Revelation tells us that we are the ones who prepare our own garments.Revelation 19:7; "Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready."If you truly have a call of God on your life, you will very often find yourself in circumstances not only not of your own making, but also circumstances which are not in any way pleasant or comfortable. They are circumstances you never would have chosen for yourself. Yet, here you are and you are in the right square in the midst of them!God has a way of preparing His own to bring them to a place of humility. In this process He creates servants who have learned to be yielded, obedient and trustworthy.Psalm 24:3-5; Who may ascend into the hill of the Lord? And who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, Who has not lifted up his soul to falsehood And has not sworn deceitfully. He shall receive a blessing from the Lord And righteousness from the God of his salvation.Don't you think it's time?

This book is a systematic attempt to make sense of the spiritual message intended by Jesus or his editors in the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5-7. The main text is a straightforward exposition of the sermon. The commentary deals with the central issues of Jesus' teachings -- teachings that present themselves as spiritually significant for anyone interested in spiritual development, even those who for reasons of culture or ethnicity cannot take Christianity as an organized religion seriously. - Back cover.

The New Testament does not conform neatly to any modern attempts to define the Christian approach to other religions, argues Basil Scott. He confronts the questions: What does the New Testament tell us about religions? And what is its approach to those who were Gentiles, and to their beliefs and practices? He focuses his attention on the evidence presented by the New Testament itself, and especially on the attitude of its writers to the religions of their times. Written by a scholar with over twenty years experience in the South Asian context, this title makes a fine addition to the conversation and to the new Fortress Press efforts to bring South Asian scholarship to a wider readership.
