A Catechism on Bible Doctrine
W.R. Downing
Using a catechism format, this book contains an overview of basic Christian doctrine and systematic theology presented in a rich and comprehensive way. Profuse with scripture, each page is written with the sharpness of a theologian and the experience of a pastor. Dr. Downing has provided the church with a reference manual that is easy to use for believers of all denominations.
Holiness
J.C. Ryle
This classic book by J.C. Ryle will help you grow in holiness, sanctification and in your walk with God. The twenty papers contained in this volume are a humble contribution to a cause which is exciting much interest in the present day — I mean the cause of scriptural holiness. It is a cause which everyone who loves Christ, and desires to advance His kingdom in the world, should endeavor to help forward. Everyone can do something, and I wish to add my mite. The reader will find little that is directly controversial in these papers. I have carefully abstained from naming modern teachers and modern books. I have been content to give the result of my own study of the Bible, my own private meditations, my own prayers for light, and my own reading of old divines. If in anything I am still in error, I hope I shall be shown it before I leave the world. We all see in part, and have a treasure in earthen vessels. I trust I am willing to learn.
In the Footprints of the Lamb
George Steinberger
The Footprints of the Lamb of God show how true spiritual progress is possible. It is the pathway where the Christian finds enduring peace, lives a fruitful life, wins spiritual victories, and attains the goal of glory. He who follows the Lamb in His way comes to where the Lamb himself dwells. And the Lamb is in the midst of the throne of God. No other way will lead there. With deep wisdom, insight, and sensitivity, Steinberger leads the reader to an understanding of the practical meanings of all the virtues surrounding Christlikeness: love, service, humility, obedience, and readiness for Jesus' return! Though it is a small book, it is packed with heavenly truth, written by a writer who understood the heart of the Christian life. To profit most from this Christian classic, it should be read slowly and prayerfully, allowing the Spirit of God to penetrate one’s heart with the clarion call to the authentic Christian life.
Introduction to Theology
W.R. Downing
Introduction to Theology By Dr. W.R. Downing provides a short introduction to the study of theology which gives the student an orderly presentation of the entire theological spectrum “Hold fast the form of sound words….the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also…. Thou hast fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose…. Through faith we understand…” —Apostle Paul
Systematic Theology
W.R. Downing
Systematic Theology is the central branch of theological science. It covers all the major areas of Divine truth, dealing with the essence and the substance of God’s Word in a logical manner. It becomes a tool to reveal God’s Word set forth in a consistent manner. One should seek to obtain a grasp of systematic theology for a balanced grasp of God’s truth. It is the work of the Holy Spirit to open and apply the Word of God to our hearts, minds, and lives. A systematic and prayerful approach to Divine truth will greatly help in this opening and application! May this volume set forth the basis for a survey of the major doctrines of our Christian faith, remove contradictions, and provide a source for the consistent, practical study of Divine truth.
The Seven Sayings of the Saviour on the Cross
Arthur W. Pink
In The Seven Sayings of the Savior on the Cross, A.W. Pink clearly illustrates the lessons that emerge out of the seven utterances of Christ on the cross, filling the reader with the glory of the redemptive message. Pink uses one chapter, for each of the seven things Jesus said while dying: the word of Forgiveness (Luke 23:34), the word of Salvation (Luke 23:42- 43), the word of Affection (John 19:25-27), the word of Anguish (Matthew 27:46), the word of Suffering (John 19:28), the word of Victory (John 19:30) and the word of Contentment (Luke 23:46). Each of the seven chapters is then broken down into seven profound insights on what Jesus said, why he said it, and the far-reaching implications for us who hear it.
Union and Communion
Hudson Taylor
The Song of Solomon has often been a fenced portion of God’s Word into which believers have rarely ventured. But in neglecting this book of sacred Scripture, many have missed out on the beautiful reality of God’s desire and purpose—to have deep, loving, and intense fellowship with us. Hudson Taylor, noted Christian missionary to China, penned this small book to unfold the symbols and imagery found in Solomon’s love poem. In so doing, he sets forth in plain language the deep truths of the believer’s personal union with the Lord to foster a greater adoration for, and appreciation toward, the Bridegroom, whom the bride comes to understand more and more and grows in love toward. The vivid language of Solomon sets forth the story of two lovers—the Lord and His Church—who yearn for each other, who praise each other, who adore each other with greater intensity the more they are in union and communion.
