Titoli in Protestantesimo

Adoniram Judson, a figure of intimidating success and legacy, receives a worthy telling of his story in this memoir by J. Clement. Clement describes Judson’s thirst for theological knowledge, his understanding and acceptance of salvation, and his journey into and on the mission field. It is detailed how he listened to the Holy Spirit’s call for him to heed the Great Commission and how, despite all legal and practical obstacles, he secured his way into the field as the first American foreign missionary.

Jonathan Edwards is often referred to as America’s greatest theologian. He lived from 1703-1758, and was used by God in the American Great Awakening. Justification by Faith Alone was a printed discourse based on the sermons he had preached on Justification during the 1730s that led to a great revival among the people in his area. This audiobook is read from Edwards’ original text with only a few minor changes to make it more understandable to the listener.

This collection of correspondences between Calvin and Sadoleto is an excellent primary source view of the most controversial issues facing Christians at the time. The split between Reformation and Roman Catholic beliefs was growing ever larger and the consequences more severe. While Calvin writes with deep theological arguments and in defense of individuals searching for truth, Sadoleto’s pleas sound more like an emotional cry for unity, peace-keeping, and the return of the Catholic Church’s lost children.

Pourquoi les chrétiens se réunissent-ils pour rompre le pain ? La nuit où il a été trahi, Jésus a pris un dernier repas avec ses disciples. Qu’y avait-il de si important dans ce repas ? Que signifie-t-il pour la vie de l’Église aujourd’hui ? Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul explique les origines de ce que nous appelons maintenant la sainte cène ainsi que la signification du pain et du vin. L’auteur rappelle aux croyants l’importance de ne pas prendre ce repas à la légère et de préparer leur cœur avant de recevoir les éléments.

Selon certains sondages, la plupart des hommes et des femmes croient que les gens sont fondamentalement bons. En fait, la Bible révèle que l’humanité a bel et bien été créée bonne. Et pourtant, nous connaissons tous des personnes qui nous ont fait du mal ou qui en ont fait à d’autres. Nous avons nous-mêmes commis des actes répréhensibles. Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul explique comment nous sommes devenus moralement corrompus et à quel point notre corruption est profonde. Nous ne faisons pas seulement des erreurs, nous péchons contre un Dieu saint.

Les cinq points du calvinisme décrivent comment les chrétiens sont sauvés et pourquoi ils sont préservés éternellement. Cette doctrine nous ramène au temps où nous avons été librement choisis. Elle sonde les mystères de l’œuvre de Christ, qui a acquis pour tous les enfants de Dieu le don de la foi. Elle pénètre l’âme humaine, lui permettant d’entrevoir les mystères de l’œuvre accomplie par l’Esprit, alors qu’il obtient la victoire complète sur notre rébellion et fait de nous les captifs volontaires de Jésus, le Roi.

Il est fréquent d’entendre les gens parler de santé, de richesse et de prospérité comme étant des signes de la bénédiction de Dieu. Cependant, Jésus a dit que ce sont les pauvres, les persécutés et les personnes qui souffrent qui sont bénis. Dans ce petit livre, R. C. Sproul examine une section bien appréciée du Nouveau Testament appelée les « béatitudes ». Il utilise les célèbres paroles prononcées par Jésus au début du sermon sur la montagne pour expliquer que la vraie bénédiction n’est possible qu’en saisissant la grâce de Dieu en Jésus-Christ.

One of Bounds’ last published works, The Weapon of Prayer, emphasizes his belief that seeing God’s power, experiencing His miracles, and participating in His works relies on dedicated prayer. While receiving prayers is important to God, this communication is crucial for His people. Prayer is not only a religious responsibility, but it is also worship, growth, power, and the Christian’s lifeline. Bounds encourages Christians to practice and sharpen this weapon of strength in order to fully appreciate the gifts that can come from God.

Greatly revered by religious scholars both in her own time as well as today, St. Theresa of Avila’s words hold immense peace, wisdom, and encouragement in the walk of faith. She gives priceless guidance on such issues as prayer, connecting with God, meditation, and ultimate contentment and joy in Christ.

In this brief treatise, Professor Rookmaaker explores the value of art in the Kingdom of God. He asks, what is the God-given purpose of our talents? What of those talents whose only contribution is beauty? He insightfully examines the spiritual crisis in current art, the effect of a meaning vacuum on art and society as a whole. He admonishes Christian artists (and us all) to "weep, pray, think, and work" as our means of seeking the Kingdom of God, and his encouragement kindles our spirits and moves us, in our art, whatever our art, to do the truth.

While most of us barely begin to even consider the “why” questions, Arthur W. Pink plainly declared the unpopular truth about the root cause of all human maladies. In his incisive way, Pink explained that the reason for the human condition is a spiritual one. Man has been a rebel against his Maker ever since the rebellion of our first parents in the garden of Eden. In this book, there are unique insights into depravity not commonly found in the more modern writings on the topic, as well as very precious truths about the finished work of Jesus in saving sinners.

There has been renewed interest in the five points of Calvinism among many Christians today. But these doctrines are not a product of the twenty-first century. So where did they come from, and why are they so important? Dr. W. Robert Godfrey takes us back to 1618-19 when the Canons of Dort were written in response to a mounting theological assault on Reformed Christianity. Now, for its four-hundredth anniversary, he offers a new translation and pastoral commentary on the canons, equipping the next generation with these God-glorifying truths.

People in Glass Houses tells how a small church in a suburban Australian school hall became a multimillion-dollar tax-free enterprise and a powerful international force. Providing memorable portraits of charismatic leaders Brian and Bobbie Houston, this is a powerful, personal, and at times very funny exploration of an all-singing, all-swaying mega church. The church is more than a faith—it’s a brand. And one fraught with scandal.

In this book, Arthur W. Pink examines the seven things Jesus said while he was hanging on the cross. There were words of: Forgiveness, Salvation, Affection, Anguish, Suffering, Victory, and Contentment.

The Church is very good at saying all the right things about racial equality. But the reality is that the institution has utterly failed to back up these good intentions with demonstrable efforts to reform. It is a long way from being a place of Black flourishing.

This is a very well-written explanation and defense of the biblical doctrine of predestination. The author, Loraine Boettner, received a bachelor of science degree from Tarkio College in 1925. He then attended Princeton Theological Seminary, receiving two degrees there: a bachelor of theology in 1928, and a master of theology in 1929.

After This is an encouraging compass that points us to all that is waiting for us in the next season of our lives. It is a prophetic word revealing that this coming shift is a transition into a time of peace, multiplication, comfort, and strength. After the misery, after the mess, after the divorce, after the breakup, after the bankruptcy, after the failure - even after COVID-19 - there is an “after this” coming that will change everything for those who belong to God.

In this classic exposition of 1 Corinthians 13:8–10, Jonathan Edwards exhorts Christians to ponder the love of God — both here in the world and in expectation of heaven. The things of this world are temporary, but “love never ends” (1 Cor. 13:8). God’s love is a foretaste of future glory, made available through communion with the Holy Spirit. Each chapter of this audiobook is rich with pastoral insights that will leave listeners hungry to experience more of God’s love in eager anticipation of heaven.

To Christians, nothing is more important than clearly confessing and bearing witness to the truths of God's word, which reveals the glorious Gospel of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. That is what the Book of Concord is all about. This edition of the Lutheran Confessions instructs, inspires, and educates all who use it and help them learn what it means to be, and to remain, a genuinely confessing Lutheran Christian.

From its inception in the early 1900s, The United Church of Canada set out to become the national church of Canada. This book recounts and analyzes the history of the church of Canada’s largest Protestant denomination and its engagement with issues of social and private morality, evangelistic campaigns, and its response to the restructuring of religion in the 1960s.
