- A History
434,95 kr. Cities, scripts, literature, the rule of law all were born in Iraq. That so many see this ancient land as nothing more than a violent backwater steeped in chaos is a travesty. This is the place where, for the first 5,000 years of human history, all innovations of worth emerged. It was the cradle of civilization. In this unrivalled study, John Robertson details the greatness and grandeur of Iraqs achievements, the brutality and magnificence of its ancient empires and its extraordinary contributions to the world. The only work in the English language to explore the history of the land of two rivers in its entirety, it takes readers from the seminal advances of its Neolithic inhabitants to the aftermath of the American and British-led invasion, the rise of Islamic State and Iraq today. A fascinating and thought-provoking analysis, it is sure to be greatly appreciated by historians, students and all those with an interest in this diverse and enigmatic country. This paperback edition features a new epilogue, bringing the work up to date and looking ahead to Iraqs future.

228,95 kr. A study of the Minor Prophets will leave one with a greater reverence and respect for the authorized words of God. As we read these twelve books we are inserted into the lives of those who made the choice to be righteousness and those who chose sin. Those who did not follow God's word were chastised by God as a father would an unruly child. The Lord punished his erring people by way of droughts, pestilence, sword, and famine. The object of the punishment was to cause the people to feel sorrow over their sins and return to the Lord. The Minor Prophets prove Solomon's words about the consequences of living a life of sin. Those who choose to sin have nothing but a thorny life of troubles (see Proverbs 22:5). Studying the Minor Prophets will bring wisdom to your life so that you will think twice before choosing sin. Christians are thankful to God that he will forgive the meek and lowly that repents when sin is permitted into one's life.

183,95 kr. The theme of Ezekiel is, "You shall know that I am the Lord." Most will only come to repentance and confession that Jehovah is God by violent actions against them. Tribulation and pain brings a man to his knees so that he may cry out to God for help (see Acts 14:22). God acted out in violence against Judah for her sins so that they may repent and confess that he alone is the Lord (Lamentations 2:5-7). Accordingly, Ezekiel parallels the book of Revelation. The prophet ends the book by giving the people hope in a future kingdom ruled by Christ.

88,95 kr. There is no book of greater significance in the lives of all than the Bible. Unfortunately, people do not spend much time studying it. The reasons for not studying the Bible vary from person to person. Sometimes people just do not know where to start. A lot of people do not set aside time each day to study. All will agree that we cannot know the things that we put no time into knowing. We may answer the question, "How to study the Bible" by saying, "start reading it." This book is designed to help you maximize the time that you do have to study. If I understand the methodology of God delivering his divine words to man then I will have greater understanding. The Apostle Paul said that faith comes of hearing the word of God (Romans 10:17). There is no better time than the present to study God's word. The benefits are experienced now and forevermore.

73,95 kr. The subject of faith is often overlooked because of its supposed simplicity. The more one looks into the subject of faith the more understanding will be achieved. Faith is not something that anyone can see (Hebrews 11:1). Faith is something hoped for in the future and evidenced by the way one lives in the present. Faith can keep one on the right track to heaven if they will give effort.

213,95 kr. The book of Acts is an introduction to Christianity. It deals with three simple subjects. First, Acts reveals the day that Christ's kingdom, the church, was established. Secondly, we find the beginnings of preachers, apostles, and prophets teaching the gospel of Jesus Christ to a lost and dying world. Thirdly, we find varying responses to the gospel message. Some people believed some people disbelieved. Those who believed and obeyed the gospel message were added to the Lord's church. Though the object of the book is very simple its affects upon man's history is profound. Two thousand plus years have passed since the church was established. The gospel message continues to be preached and people continue to have varying responses to truth.

208,95 kr. The Proverbs teach that wisdom is the principal thing to obtain in life. Those that spend their lives gaining knowledge of God's word are strengthened against the constant attacks of the devil through temptation. God is a rock, mighty fortress, and shield against wickedness to those that have spent the time to get to know him (see Psalms 18:1-2).

- A Study of Psalms 119
88,95 kr. A young David finds the answer to an age old question that few will even consider. If it be that God demands man's moral perfection then how can I attain it (see Matthew 5:48; 1 Peter 1:15-17; 2 Peter 1:4 and 1 John 4:17 to name only a few passages)? The pessimist views moral perfection as impossible. Jesus tells us; however, that all things are possible with God (see Matthew 19:26). Psalms 119 confirms the Lord and apostles' teaching on the subject regarding the relationship between grace and moral perfection (2 Corinthians 5:21). Once David sees and understands God's expectation of perfection then he puts his all into attaining it. Reading the chapter is like looking into the life of an exceptional athlete or musician. The one standing upon the top podium for the Olympic 1500 meters did not get there by a casual approach to his sport. The ultimate prize is attained by a combination of passion and a work ethic paralleled by few. The person that receives the gift of God's salvation will be just like the athlete. The Apostle Paul said that the athlete works for a physical reward yet the saints for an imperishable crown (see 1 Corinthians 9:23-27). David, the man after God's own heart, displays a passion and work ethic for God's gifts that is found only in a few (Matthew 7:13-14). Psalms 119 gives clarity to the New Testament teaching on the relationship between obedience, grace, and salvation. The one thing that every right thinking person should be striving for in this life is God's gift of salvation.

103,95 kr. Most New Testament epistles deal with problems within the early church. Paul's epistle to the Corinthians examines several issues that stood in the way of their righteousness. Paul could have easily given up on these Christians; however, with a spirit of love he walks them through each problem. A study of this epistle helps us see that acknowledgment of error and repentance is needed in every church.

88,95 kr. 1 and 2 Thessalonians are two epistles addressed to a group of Christians that faced many of the same anxieties and issues that God's people do today. The Apostle Paul spends a considerable amount of space in these two epistles teaching and easing the minds of these new converts in the faith. They had anxiety regarding the second coming of Jesus. The Thessalonians Christians were also being bombarded with worldliness, the threat of persecution, false doctrines, and skeptics that did all within their power to cause the world to view the Bible as nothing more than a fairy tale. Paul's care and concern for fellow brothers in Christ comes out in these two letters. He reminds the Thessalonian Christians of the original doctrine that they had learned so that they may be victorious over all things that stand between them and Christ. These two epistles are very valuable today because they help us with our anxieties, modern day issues, and we learn how to establish Bible authority for all that we do.

98,95 kr. The book of Daniel has a dual purpose. First, Daniel looks to a "latter day" when the kingdom of God, the church, would be established. During these latter days man would be forgiven of sins through the blood of Jesus Christ. The prophecies of Isaiah, Daniel, and Joel prove that God's church was established on the Day of Pentecost, fifty days after Christ was crucified, as revealed at Acts 2. Before the kingdom would be established; however, God's people would suffer at the hands of madmen such as Antiochus IV Epiphanes and Empires such as Rome. Secondly, and just as important, Daniel reveals God's expectations for his people. God's people, in every generation, come to be holy through persecution, tribulation, and afflictions. Those who endure to the end will be eternally rewarded.

78,95 kr. A life of service begins when one becomes a Christian. The hope of eternal heaven resides in the grasp of those who manifest their love toward Jesus by fulfilling his commandments (John 14:15). Each individual has his or her God ordained responsibilities to meet. This study shall examine many of the Christian's individual responsibilities so that we may be pleasing to the Lord (John 6:27-29).

183,95 kr. The Apostle Paul challenges the Roman Christians to set aside their prejudices and receive each other based on the doctrine of Jesus Christ. Many of the Jews struggled with sin due to a superiority complex that was directed at the Gentiles. The book of Romans is a masterpiece that identifies salvation and fellowship for Christians of every generation.

Philemon must show love and gratitude for his runaway slave's new found faith, forgive him, and receive him as a brother. The book of Jude instructs the church of every generation to unmask those teaching error so that souls may be saved.

183,95 kr. The book of Revelation illustrates the eternal consequences of following a life of sin rather than glorifying God. Satan is depicted as a ferocious red dragon of great power and persuasion. Christ is depicted in the Revelation as eternally glorious and victorious. Each generation of man faces the same things that the previous generation did. Man faces tribulation and powerful temptation in the form of lust, luxury, covetousness, pride, and personal glory. Man is inundated with false doctrines. The world of man is pushed and pulled by Satan's vices while the promises of God ground a man on the foundation of truth. God permits man to make his own choice in the matter. The book of Revelation shows that the pleasures of sin are short lived with eternal horrid consequences whereas the glories of heaven are blessed now and forevermore.

244,95 kr. To study the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John is to grow closer to Jesus. Too many in this world do not see the real Jesus because they have not spent the time getting to know him through Bible study (see John 7:34). Jesus carried a commanding persona that demanded man's complete attention. Jesus was fearless in the face of intense opposition and expected all men to know and understand his words. The fourfold gospel accounts of the life of Christ expose many peoples' faulty expectations of Jesus then and today. Get to know Jesus and his expectations now before its everlasting too late!

93,95 kr. 1, 2 and 3 John are love letters to the church from the Apostle John. These three books reveal problems that existed in the early church. There were false teachers that proved to be antichrist by their refusal to know and live out the truth as taught by Jesus and the apostles. John expresses his love toward his fellow Christians by exposing the hypocritical language of those that say they know, believe, love, and fear God when they truly do not. John explains that sincere erring Christians have the power to lead saints astray from the truth if one does not administer the test of scriptures to every word another speaks. These three books have the loving intention of helping people make it to heaven (1 John 2:25). The three letters; however, demand that one speak and act in truth rather than being self-deluded in sin and error.
