The Victory of Faith is one important bible study about the Christian faith. A book that will bring growth and knowledge about faith, salvation and invite him to live with greater intimacy with God. Written by Charles Spurgeon, important preacher Christian.

Faith Is the Victory is the most practical book on living the Christian life that I have ever read. As Christians are increasingly directed to a dependence upon formulas and fads to accomplish success, the summons by Buell Kazee for the believer to live by faith needs to be shared with a new generation of readers. The practice of adopting the programs and patterns of the business and political worlds with their dependence upon means has produced a worship of methods even while it has created Christians and churches that are materially prosperous, but spiritually impoverished. Faith Is the Victory calls for believers to remember the victory that overcomes the world will never be achieved through systems or schemes, but by faith.This edition by Buell Kazee is the first time Faith Is the Victory has been published with the three original articles that appear to this editor to have been the initial thoughts that eventually developed into this wonderfully helpful book.Pastor Kazee's spiritual legacy is not confined to Faith Is the Victory, but it is forever anchored to it. This book deserves the widest of circulation.

How can Christians claim that the death of Jesus Christ on the cross is a victory? Eastern Orthodoxy has made its own contributions to the belief in salvation through Christ, but its expressions sometimes sound unfamiliar to Western branches of the church. James Payton explores the Orthodox doctrine of salvation, helping Christians of all traditions listen to Orthodox brothers and sisters.

Many books have been written about the success of the West, analyzing why Europe was able to pull ahead of the rest of the world by the end of the Middle Ages. The most common explanations cite the West’s superior geography, commerce, and technology. Completely overlooked is the fact that faith in reason, rooted in Christianity’s commitment to rational theology, made all these developments possible. Simply put, the conventional wisdom that Western success depended upon overcoming religious barriers to progress is utter nonsense.In The Victory of Reason, Rodney Stark advances a revolutionary, controversial, and long overdue idea: that Christianity and its related institutions are, in fact, directly responsible for the most significant intellectual, political, scientific, and economic breakthroughs of the past millennium. In Stark’s view, what has propelled the West is not the tension between secular and nonsecular society, nor the pitting of science and the humanities against religious belief. Christian theology, Stark asserts, is the very font of reason: While the world’s other great belief systems emphasized mystery, obedience, or introspection, Christianity alone embraced logic and reason as the path toward enlightenment, freedom, and progress. That is what made all the difference.In explaining the West’s dominance, Stark convincingly debunks long-accepted “truths.” For instance, by contending that capitalism thrived centuries before there was a Protestant work ethic–or even Protestants–he counters the notion that the Protestant work ethic was responsible for kicking capitalism into overdrive. In the fifth century, Stark notes, Saint Augustine celebrated theological and material progress and the institution of “exuberant invention.” By contrast, long before Augustine, Aristotle had condemned commercial trade as “inconsistent with human virtue”–which helps further underscore that Augustine’s times were not the Dark Ages but the incubator for the West’s future glories. This is a sweeping, multifaceted survey that takes readers from the Old World to the New, from the past to the present, overturning along the way not only centuries of prejudiced scholarship but the antireligious bias of our own time. The Victory of Reason proves that what we most admire about our world–scientific progress, democratic rule, free commerce–is largely due to Christianity, through which we are all inheritors of this grand tradition.

The success achieved by the movement of Shri AmarnathYatra Sangarsha Samiti for protecting the Hindu identity and national self-respect is the triumph of Hindutva and the like-minded nationalist forces over pro-Pakistan anti-national and secessionist groups. The patriotic people of Jammu continued their fight for two successive months facing endless agony and pain. They showed the path to all the nationalist forces across the country through their commitment and resolve. The consolidated strength of Hindu of Jammu has given the message that Hindutva is the only rallying point, meeting ground and basis on which the whole country can standup with self respect, which is very much essential to protect our national unity, integrity, culture, glorious historical past, places of faith and worship and icons of social unity. The victory achieved by the Sangharsha Samiti is not the victory of Jammu region alone but it signifies success of all the nationalist forces battling against the grossly anit-national, terror-orientated and inimical foreign-sponsored organization over last sixty years. This book presents a brief account and the ideological basis which was waged in order to save Hindutva.
