Book of the Week: Middle East Burning

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 11:03:00 +0000

by Mark Hitchcock.

With nearly 20 Bible prophecy books published, Mark Hitchcock has distinguished himself as a trustworthy and solidly biblical prophecy teacher.

Middle East Burning helps make sense of the bewildering firestorms raging in the Arabic-Israeli world. Widespread revolutions in multiple Arab nations. New powers rising to challenge entrenched despots and ruling bodies. Bitter new conflicts further enflaming the many already in place. And a pall of uncertainty over how it will all play out.

Indeed the Middle East is burning. How can we make sense of it all? At first glance the many hotspots may seem without a pattern, without rhyme or reason. But a look at Scripture helps paint a clear picture of what’s taking place, giving insight on current events in Egypt, Libya, Sudan, Russia, Turkey, Iran, Syria, and more.

A riveting and timely survey of things now and things to come!

Book of the Week: 1 & 2 Thessalonians

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 15:09:00 +0000

Pattern for Christian Living.
"This book contains a useful and accurate exegesis, and will be a help to anyone wanting to get a grasp of Paul's two epistles to the assembly at Thessalonica. It is clear that the author spent years studying these epistles and gleaned from them a clear grasp of practical assembly teaching and dispensational prophetic truth. He has stated clearly and without compromise what he learned from God's Word. Like the apostle Paul, he has "kept nothing back that was profitable" (Acts 20:20), and has "not shunned to declare the whole counsel of God" (Acts 20:27). - from the forward by Walter A.Boyd
Born in Belfast in 1924 and saved at age eleven, Thomas Bentley arrived in Malaysia in 1957 to serve the Lord. He contributed extensively in writing to various assembly magazines and authored the commentary on the epistle to the Colossians in the What The Bible Teaches commentary series.

Dear All,

Just a little note to thank you for your custom through another year.

Christmas has come on us very fast and among all the hussle and bustle it's good to take time to remember the One who the Bible calls "God's Indescribable Gift." All that God offers us is through this One, His only begotten Son.

"Who can add to Christmas?
The perfect motive is that God so loved the World.
The perfect gift is that He gave His only Son.
The only requirement is to believe in Him.
The reward of faith is that you shall have everlasting life."
- Corrie Ten Boom

"The Cross always stands near the manger."
- Amy Carmichael.

"This is Christmas -
THE REAL MEANING OF IT.
God loving, searching, giving Himself -
TO US.
Man's needing, receving, giving Himself -
TO GOD
This is the meaning of Christmas -
THE WONDER AND GLORY OF IT"
- Ruth Bell Graham

Book of the Week: A Great Door and Effectual

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Wed, 07 Dec 2011 18:53:00 +0000

A collection of missionary stories from around the world. Learn from great men and women of faith:

John Knox, John Wesley, Samuel Marsden, David Livingstone, Hudson Taylor, Mary Slessor

When the apostle Paul surveyed the harvest fields white and ready to harvest, he declared that "a great door and effectual is opened unto me." From then till now, countless individuals have gone through that door, each encountering their own "many adversaries."

In this book you will also read about:
* The pioneer missionary to New Zealand who stood between two warring tribes while they performed the Haka.
* The galley slave who had an audience with the queen.
* The natives who carried the remains of a beloved missionary for nine months so that he could be buried in his homeland.
* The missionary who when on furlough, was introduced as "our illustrious guest" replied, "I am the little servant of an illustrious master."
* The girl who was willing to travel ten hours up river by canoe to take the gospel to a native Chief.
"The cause for which Knox had suffered and toiled did not die when he passed away. His bold and fearless advocacy of the truth had an abiding influence in the hearts of many of God's people, and gave them courage to confess Christ, and to testify to the mighty power of the grace of God. Strong evils and stout adversaries require qualities such as John Knox possessed in a pre-eminent degree. His austerity, hardness, and perseverance were all required in the warfare that brings no pain to the conquered, and which is after all to be won by righteousness, meekness, and joy in the Holy Ghost." - from the story of John Knox.

Book of the Week: Christ As Seen In The Offerings

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 09:23:00 +0000

by R.F. Kingscote.

Why study the offerings? "I have so much to study: the Gospels, the epistles!" If you miss the offerings you'll miss plumbing more fully the depths and riches of the person and work of Christ.

This little, easy-to-read series of studies on the Levitical Offerings pulsate with devotion to Christ. Your interest will be drawn immediately to the author's engaging style and your heart will be warmed as the full meaning of what Christ means, first to God and then to His people, is unfurled.

"My intention is to take up, in a simple way, as the Lord may help me, some of the offerings mentioned in the book of Leviticus; because they set forth, in a special manner, the person and the work of the Lord Jesus Christ; and also, we may add, the blessings which have become ours through what He has done." - the author.

The Crimond Classics series are timeless volumes reprinted for a new generation. Each one has been painstakingly retypeset for a fresh, modern look. We trust they will prove to be of value for today's reader.

Author Biography

Born of the old Kingscote family of Gloucestershire, he was a great friend of the Duke of Cambridge, cousin to Queen Victoria. He was the author of numerous pamphlets, but was most famous for a series of addresses on "the offerings," given at Park Street, London. He took part in the funeral service of J.N. Darby.

Book of the Week: The Crises of the Christ

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 10:44:00 +0000

by G. Campbell Morgan.

This volume is a series of studies on the person of Christ, written when the author was just forty years of age. Reading it many years later he said "I wouldn't change a word of it." You will gain more insight into the character and work of "the second Man", "the Lord out of heaven," through seven key events in Christ's life, His:

* Birth
* Baptism
* Temptation
* Transfiguration
* Crucifixion
* Resurrection
* Ascension

"These (crises) … contain the whole story of that work by which redemption has been wrought for the race. Each of them ushered in a new order of things in the work of Christ, crowning that of the past, and creating the force for that which was to come. All these lie between two facts, which must be considered. The first is that of the ruin of the race, which created the necessity for the work of the Christ. The second is that of the redemption of the race, which issues from the work of the Christ. A preliminary section of this volume will be devoted to the ruin which called for Christ, and a final section to the statement of that redemption which constitutes His answer to the call. Thus with reverence, and a deep sense of its transcendent wonder, let the great subject be approached." - from the introduction

Morgan's classic work on seven key events in the life of Christ: His birth, baptism, temptation, trasfiguration, crucifixion, resurrection and ascension.

"Whenever you find a book by Morgan, buy it and study it." - Warren W. Wiersbe.

Book of the Week: I Want You To Do Something

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 10:06:00 +0000

the amazing life and great ministry of Dr. Bill Woods.

Our world is in desperate need of authentic and selfless role models. We need genuine and living illustrations in real flesh and blood, men and women of biblical faith and Christ-like service, examples we can follow. Such present day heroes and heroines inspire us to do better in our service for Christ, dig deeper in our study of God's Word, stand taller in our witness for the Saviour and climb higher in the realms of faith.

The biography of Dr. Bill Woods gives us such a role model. Born, reared and educated in Belfast, Bill went to Brazil's Amazon as a missionary, became overwhelmed with the suffering of thousands and dedicated to his life to relieve that suffering. En route to reach his goals Bill also suffered and paid a great price of loneliness which his dedication demanded. His work has been acclaimed by medical and civil authorities both in Latin America and the United Kingdom. This book will touch and inspire you and at times will make you laugh or cry.

Book of the Week: Miracle In The Mine

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Tue, 08 Nov 2011 09:58:00 +0000

On October 13, 2010, millions of television viewers on five continents literally stopped everything to watch the amazing rescue of 33 men trapped underground in the mine of San José de Copiapó in northern Chile. What had seemed at first a hopeless tragedy later became a triumph of human effort, courage, perseverance, and expertise. For 17 excruciating days no one knew whether any of the miners had survived the collapse of the mine shaft, nor were the surviving miners aware of any rescue attempts. They spent a total of 69 days trapped underground. And it was there, in that frightening cavern, that one man took on the responsibility of encouraging the others and use the tragedy as an opportunity to share his faith. Miracle in the Mine is the story of José Henríquez. The testimony of a man who was no stranger to danger even before he found himself trapped 2,300 feet under the earth in the San José mine. A man who has unequivocally demonstrated his integrity, courage, and moral strength both before, during, and after the mining accident, and who is now using this experience to inspire the world.

A Heart for Freedom

The dramatic and fascinating story of Chai Ling, commander-in-chief of the student protesters at Tiananmen Square and witness to the massacre of thousands of Chinese civilians. Risking imprisonment and possible death for her leadership role in the student democracy movement, she was on the run in China for ten months while being hunted by the authorities. She eventually escaped to the U.S., completed her education at Princeton and Harvard, found true love, and became a highly successful entrepreneur. But her desperate quest for freedom, purpose, and peace—which she had sought in turn through academic achievement, romantic love, political activism, and career success—was never satisfied until she had an unexpected encounter with a formerly forbidden faith. Her newfound passion for God led to her life’s greatest mission: Fighting for the lives and rights of young girls in China.

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Mon, 17 Oct 2011 08:39:00 +0000

DANIEL by J. R. Baker. The book of Daniel is unique in giving more detail of the “times of the Gentiles” than any other book in the Old Testament.

MICAH by J. M. Flanigan. In Micah’s prophecy there is much of God’s holiness and His denunciations of sin as well as glimpses of glory.

Book of the Week: Growing Up Amish

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 08:38:00 +0000

Growing Up Amish

One fateful starless night, 17-year-old Ira Wagler got up at 2 AM, left a scribbled note under his pillow, packed all of his earthly belongings into in a little black duffel bag, and walked away from his home in the Amish settlement of Bloomfield, Iowa. Now, in this heartwarming memoir, Ira paints a vivid portrait of Amish life—from his childhood days on the family farm, his Rumspringa rite of passage at age 16, to his ultimate decision to leave the Amish Church for good at age 26. Growing Up Amish is the true story of one man’s quest to discover who he is and where he belongs. Readers will laugh, cry, and be inspired by this charming yet poignant coming of age story set amidst the backdrop of one of the most enigmatic cultures in America today—the Old Order Amish.

Book of the Week: Gunning For God

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 08:50:00 +0000

by John Lennox.

Since the twin towers crashed to the ground on 9/11 there has been no end to claims that religion 'is dangerous', 'kills' , or 'poisons everything'. And if religion is the problem with the world, say the New Atheists, the answer is simple: get rid of it. But are things really so straightforward? Tackling Hawking, Dawkins, Dennett, Hitchens, and a newcomer in the field - the French philosopher Michel Onfray - John Lennox points out some of the fallacies in the New Atheist approach, arguing that their irrational and unscientific methodology leaves them guilty of the very obstinate foolishness they criticise in dogmatic religious folks. Erudite and wide-ranging, Gunning for God packs some debilitating punches. However, it also puts forward new ideas about the nature of God and Christianity that will give Dawkins' best friends and worst enemies alike some stimulating food for thought.

Book of the Week: Bible - The Story of the King James Version

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 08:40:00 +0000

* Marking the 400th anniversary of the King James Version, this accessible yet authoritative history, explains why and how the Authorised Version came into being
* Brings to life the controversies surrounding later revisions, helping the reader to understand why and when new editions were issued
* Investigates the varied reception of the King James Version across the world, particularly looking at its enduring popularity in America
* Lavishly illustrated with reproductions from early editions of the King James Bible and portraits of key players in its history
* Appendices contain short biographies of the translators and a guide to the 74 page preliminaries of the 1611 edition

This is a history of the King James Version of the Bible (known in Britain as the Authorised Version) over the four hundred years from its remote beginnings to the present day. Gordon Campbell, expert in Renaissance literatures, tells the fascinating and complex story of how this translation came to be commissioned, of who the translators were, and of how the translation was accomplished. The story does not end with the printing of that first edition, but introduces the subsequent generations who edited and interacted with the text. The present text of the King James Version differs in thousands of small details from the original edition. Campbell traces the textual history from 1611 to the establishment of the modern text by Oxford University Press in 1769.
Attitudes to the King James Version have shifted through time and territory, ranging from adulation to deprecation and attracting the attention of a wide variety of adherents. It is more widely read in America today than in any other country, and its particular history in there is given due attention. Generously illustrated with reproductions taken from early editions, this volume helps to explain the enduring popularity of the King James Version throughout the world today.

Now that he's back, will they be able to move beyond this estrangement and rekindle the fire of the love they once shared?

A Change of Heart—Leah is a writer in a community that does not encourage such fruitless endeavors. She lacks the skills necessary to be a good Amish fraa—cooking, cleaning, quilting, and gardening. Aaron is aware of Leah's short-comings, but his heart is captured by this spirited young woman. Will Leah's role as an Amish wife and mother force her to set aside her creative life—or will Aaron make an offer she never dreamed was possible?

A Choice to Forgive—Lydia has loved two men in her life. Daniel, who disappeared one Christmas Eve long ago, leaving only a note saying he wanted to live in the Englisch world. And Elam, Daniel's brother, to whom she had been happily married for 15 years. When Elam dies, Lydia gives up on ever loving again. But she is shocked when Daniel wants to return to the Order and her life. Is there enough forgiveness in her heart to overlook the past and move into a future that could fulfill her dreams?

Book of the Week: F F Bruce: A Life

noreply@blogger.com (Ards Evangelical Bookshop) — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 09:30:00 +0000

by Tim Grass.
Evangelicals have often wrestled with two problems: the relation between academic theology and church life, and the quest for recognition of their status as credible interpreters of the Bible. Frederick Fyvie Bruce (1910—1990) was one of the most influential British biblical scholars of the twentieth century, and his career offers valuable insights into these issues, as well as shedding light on the ways in which Evangelicalism was changing from the 1950s onwards.
This biography integrates discussion of his family life, his activity as a member of the Open Brethren, and his academic career. Tim Grass argues that Bruce, like his father, was always something of an evangelist at heart.
