Adam's Wish

Unknown Poetry of Ṭáhirih

By: Qurrat al-ʻAyn,John S. Hatcher,Amrollah Hemmat

Tahirih, the remarkable poetess of nineteenth-century Persia, penned many poems that were either thought to be lost or remained untranslated. This outstanding volume contains a number of previously unpublished and largely unknown poems both in their original calligraphy and in English. Many of these poems relate to Tahirih's spiritual beliefs. She often refers to Adam, the first Prophet of God, and the Prophets of the past to reveal her insights into the process by which God empowers his messengers to educate humanity. It is through this process that the wish of Adam and all the Prophets of the past to witness the day when humanity will reach its full spiritual potential is fulfilled. Tahirih announces that day has now come.

Theological Wordbook

By: John F. Walvoord,Donald Cambell,John A. Witmer

Stimulating theology is an oxymoron for most people. "Theology" sounds like something for the severely intellectual, full of complicated ideas that escape the typical Christian reader. In reality, theology is meant to enhance our understanding of God. Most of the words that make up the Christian vocabulary are common words, drawn from the realities of life, and therefore are easily applicable to real life. Based on this premise four leading authors have come together to create this excellent volume. The Theological Wordbook tackles tough words, such as propitiation, regeneration, righteousness, and predestination, but it does so in a natural, plain-spoken manner designed to be enlightening rather than evasive. Also literally dozens of words you are likely to use every day, such as forgiveness, mind, peace, rest, family, truth, and guilt, have profound biblical value. Using The Theological Wordbook can enable you to more fully appreciate what the Bible teaches on these crucial topics and how each of these terms is relevant for life today. As this happens, your understanding of God will expand. And as the words you use, speak, and hear in the community of faith become more familiar, you will become more connected to your own spiritual heritage. The Theological Wordbook is the link between understanding God's Word in your head and accepting it in your heart.

The Epistle to the Romans

The Epistle to the Romans

By: John Murray

Careful scholarship and spiritual insight characterize this enduring commentary by John Murray on Romans, first published in 1959 as part of the New International Commentary on the New Testament series. After a brief introduction to the authorship, occasion, setting, and message of the epistle, Murray provides a verse-by-verse exposition of Romans that is deeply penetrating in its elucidation of the text. In ten appendices he gives special attention to select themes and scholarly debates—the meaning of justification, Isaiah 53:11 in relation to Romans, Karl Barth on Romans 5, the interpretation of the “weak brother” in Romans 14, and more. Murray’s classic commentary on Romans in this new edition will continue to be valuable to pastors, students, and scholars everywhere.

An Introduction to Marxist Economic Philosophy

By: John E. Roemer

Roemer challenges the morality of an economic system based on private ownership of the means of production. Unless you start with a certain amount of wealth in such a society, you are only “free to lose.” This book addresses crucial questions of political philosophy and normative economics.

What Do Mormons Really Believe?

What the Ads Don't Tell You

By: John Ankerberg,John Weldon

Mormons say they are Christians, but are their claims true? Are the differences minimal? Authors Ankerberg and Weldon go beyond the seeming similarities to look candidly at the Mormon teachings that are clearly incompatible with orthodox Christianity, asking questions such as: -- Was God ever a man? -- Were Jesus and Lucifer brothers? -- Is Scripture still being written? -- Are we saved by what we do? -- Are there "levels" of heavenly glory? In clarifying the meanings of terms Mormons use and their views on the Bible, Ankerberg and Weldon reveal the chasm between Mormonism and traditional Christianity. This clear, well-written guide equips readers to use the truths of God's Word to defend the faith.
