Ecclesia at Ephesus
Mutter, Ryan | Published in 2013 | Paperback, 258 Pages
Ephesus was one of the most advanced cities in the Roman Empire. Believers living there faced many of the same issues that confront followers of the Lord Jesus Christ today. The Bible captures more than four decades of the ecclesia’ history through the Acts and the numerous New Testament writings penned by or to believers in Ephesus. The lessons the Bible provides about the causes and consequences of events in the ecclesia remain relevant in today’s every changing times.
Pictures of Redemption
Booker, George | Published in 2012 | Paperback (192 pages)
After the First Principles have been mastered (as they must be), we must face the fact that there is something beyond. As we live out our lives day by day, the important issue is not so much how redemption has been achieved, but rather what redemption means, morally and spiritually – what it means, every day, to belong to God. We might like to explain the atonement in simple terms, but the Bible doesn’t present it that way. This book explores parables, analogies and figures of speech used in the Scriptures to illustrate the many facets of redemption.
The Creation Text – Studies in Early Genesis
Levin, David | Published in 2011 | Paperback (364 pages), eBook
This book offers fresh insights into Genesis 1 to 5 by examining the text and structure. It addresses a wide range of questions, including: Are Genesis 1 and 2 two different creation accounts? Was the serpent given the power of speech to tempt Eve? Why was Cain’s offering rejected? It also explores how early Genesis echoes throughout the Bible. For example: How the layout of the garden models the tabernacle. How Abel and Cain foreshadow Jesus and the Pharisees. How Jesus’ prayer in John 17 relates to Adam and Eve.
The Whole Armor of God
Mutter, Ryan | Published in 2011 | Paperback (110 pages)
Malchiah is a young teenager in the reign of King Jotham. He faces challenges that test his resolve to stick to the principles of truth he has learned. Even though he is only a poor, young shepherd, the decisions he makes have consequences that impact his entire community. His choices matter. This story takes place nearly three thousand years ago, but Malchiah’s spiritual challenges are familiar to today’s young people. His saga is an example of how practical guidance can come from the Word of God and how spiritual insight can be gained through the daily challenges of life.
My Journey in Faith
Hicks, Ron | Published in 2010 | Paperback (372 pages)
Ron Hicks takes you on his life journey, from his early days in a very large, established ecclesia, to his later years, including his final career posting in a country where there had been no Christadelphians at all. Through his travels he has discovered the many faces of Christadelphia around the world – and the joy of mission work in developing countries with diverse cultures and challenging social conditions. This is the story of a life guided by faith in Christ, written by a brother who has much experience and spiritual insight to share.
Miracles
Bilello, John | Published in 2003 | Paperback (113 pages), eBook
Do we believe in miracles? Any sincere believer in the word of God should be able to answer this question in the affirmative. Nevertheless, if an unbeliever asked us if we ever actually had witnessed a miracle, what would we answer?
Unto Us a Child is Born
Booker, George | August, 1984 | Paperback (115 Pages), Kindle
We cannot really know what first-century life was like in the little village of Nazareth. Archaeologists, historians, and other scholars can help us with some background, but we are still left to our imaginations to fill in some details. I must confess that I cannot guarantee that it all happened in this way. I can only suggest, in a spirit of reverence, that it might have happened this way.
