Nearly 200,000 copies sold! Chosen by God by Dr. R. C. Sproul is a contemporary classic on predestination, a doctrine that isn’t just for Calvinists. It is a doctrine for all biblical Christians. In this updated and expanded edition of Chosen by God, Sproul shows that the doctrine of predestination doesn’t create a whimsical or spiteful picture of God, but rather paints a portrait of a loving God who provides redemption for radically corrupt humans. We choose God because he has opened our eyes to see his beauty; we love him because he first loved us. There is mystery in God’s ways, but not contradiction.

Not Chosen to Salvation, by Dr. Max D. Younce, covers all the Scriptures relating to the false doctrine of predestination to salvation and illuminates the free will and responsibility of man. It answers the verses used by those who believe in predestination for salvation and is a good witnessing tool. This book reveals the danger and manipulation of taking pieces of Scripture and whole verses out of context to build false doctrine. It also reveals how one false teaching will have many other tributaries of false doctrine attached. This book has been sent to missionaries in Argentina, Australia, South America, and many other countries. It is one of the most complete books in answering the Scriptures set forth by the Predestinationalists. In the back are all the Scriptures used, with a quick page reference. For a complete study on the subject of Predestination, this book is a must for your library.

What are spiritual gifts? Storms has spent several decades teaching on the topic of the spiritual gifts and equipping believers in the faithful practice of God's gifts. Yet there remains a great deal of confusion about the nature of the gifts and how they best function in the body of Christ. In this comprehensive guide to the spiritual gifts, Storms addresses the many bizarre and misleading interpretations while confronting the tendency to downplay the urgency of spiritual gifts for Christian living and ministry. He explains how spiritual gifts--both the more miraculous and the everyday--are given to build up the body of Christ. God has graciously provided these "manifestations of the Spirit" so that believers might encourage, edify, strengthen, instruct, and console one another, all with a view to an ever-increasing, incremental transformation into the image of Jesus Christ. Throughout this guide, Sam Storms unpacks the glorious truth that there is a supernatural and divine energy or power that fills and indwells the body and soul of every Christian believer. Understanding Spiritual Gifts is useful as a reference to address common questions about the gifts, but it also serves as a training manual for using and exercising the gifts in ministry. It is perfect for any individual or group who wants to grow in their understanding of spiritual gifts for today.

In this important study Hays argues against the mainstream that any attempt to account for the nature and method of Paul's theological language must first reckon with the centrality of narrative elements in his thought. Through an in-depth investigation of Galatians 3:1-4:11, Hays shows that the framework of Paul's thought is neither a system of doctrines nor his personal religious experience but the "sacred story" of Jesus Christ.

To depend on my own decision for God?Others believe salvation is God's sovereign business from start tofinish. But what about those who don't believe? Did God choosesome to fry in their own fat forever in Hell?What if God's predestination is not about choosing some for blissand others for destruction?
