What Did The Cross Accomplish
$28.00
In this book, readers will enjoy a fascinating and cordial discussion between N. T. Wright and Simon Gathercole on the meaning and nature of the doctrine of atonement. These two highly respected scholars discuss in clear and understandable language the meanings of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. Their discussion explores various theories of atonement and looks closely at the Old Testament to discover Paul’s meaning of his words that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures.
Wright presents his case first, then Gathercole responds with a contrary point of view. Their discussion confronts questions including: What exactly is this “scandal of the cross”? What role does the notion of sacrifice, as understood in its ancient context, play in the atonement of Christ? Is the atonement a “victory”? How so? Was Christ a “substitute,” taking humankind’s place on the cross and suffering the death and judgment that sinners deserve? How does the death of Christ on the cross rescue or liberate sinners from death? Does the cross achieve benefits for only humans, or do those benefits extend to the entirety of creation? This book is a succinct conversation in which all these questions receive attention, with nuanced differences between the two interlocutors. This conversation along with Robert Stewart’s introductory framework make this book an excellent primer to the study of the atonement, and readers will come away with a deeper understanding of the meanings of the cross.

Andrew Murray knew what it meant to be continually in the Father’s presence. Read these thirty-one heart-searching readings and learn how to live daily in closer communion and fellowship with Him. Accept God’s invitation and live in His blessing and glory instead of shuffling your feet at the gate.

Coming Revival : Shaping History For A New Heavenly Reality
$19.997 Steps to Revival. Years ago, the Lord spoke these words to international Bible teacher Derek Prince, author of the acclaimed book Shaping History Through Prayer and Fasting “There shall be a great revival in the United States and Great Britain.” Derek believed God was going to send a tremendous revival, but He wasn’t going to send it to the nations. He was going to send revival to the church in the nations. Then, that revival would impact the world with the gospel of Jesus Christ before His return.
This prophetic word about revival has yet to be fulfilled, which means the years to come hold great excitement for the church. The restoration and renewal God wants to bring to the United States and Great Britain–indeed, to the whole earth–lies just ahead of us.
Each of us has a pivotal role in this upcoming revival. How should we prepare ourselves to be used by the Lord in the revolutionary times to come? The fact is, how soon we see this revival will depend on how soon we are ready. Derek Prince knew there would be many contributing factors to the worldwide revival God intends to bring, and in this riveting book, he focuses on seven elements that are essential to the process. Learn these vital components and how you can prepare yourself to bring about The Coming Revival, ushering in the fullness of the kingdom and the culmination of the age.
