Letters From Jesus (Audio CD)
$29.99
“In Revelation 2:2, Jesus tells the church in Ephesus something intimate-Google Street View intimate. He says, ‘I know your works’ (Oida ta erga sou). Four words don’t seem like much, but in the Greek, it packs a punch…. Jesus chooses the Greek word oida, which expresses total, comprehensive knowledge. It is intimate knowledge that comes from being up close and personal. This knowledge isn’t hazy on the details. It doesn’t struggle to remember. It preserves the particulars. In the mind’s eye, everything is sharp and clear, like a well-taken photograph.” -Chris Palmer
Letters from Jesus: Studies from the Seven Churches of Revelation explores Christ’s warnings to the seven most prominent churches in Asia Minor in the book of Revelation. These letters date back to 95 A.D., but they help us make a fascinating discovery about civilization: life hasn’t changed that much over the last two millennia.
Author Chris Palmer illustrates the truths contained in the Letters from Jesus using modern, everyday examples. The host of the popular podcast Greek for the Week, he unpacks Greek words and phrases in these verses from Revelation with humor, joy, and biblical scholarship.
Why study Greek, even just a little bit? As Chris explains, looking at the New Testament in the original language in which it was written can offer us some beautiful insights into God’s Word. “It’s like reading the Bible in high definition,” he says. Also, “studying God’s Word in the original language forces us to approach it with reverence and awe, humbling ourselves to obey what it says, whether it’s something we want to hear or not.”

Asking Better Questions Of The Bible
$16.99Too often when we come to the Bible, we settle for easy answers. We move quickly toward the allure of resolution. But when we ask the questions the Bible is asking, we will do these things instead:
*understand the Eastern perspective of words, numbers, and core principles like eternal life, truth, sin, and faith
recognize the literary devices and the reclamation of stories used in the Torah
read the historical books both as inspiration and as cautionary tales
interpret the distinct genres in Wisdom Literature, such as psalms and proverbs
*decipher the unique elements of prophetic literature
*perceive the often tongue-in-cheek nature of the Gospel accounts
*view the New Testament letters as inspired, authoritative interpretation of the story of God

Analytical Red Letter Chronology Of The Life Of Christ
$19.95This study is for the student who wishes an uncluttered reference source, one free of distracting and often erroneous remarks, comments, personal judgments, etc.; one in which the footnotes lack faith ravaging references to supposed “scribal errors”, “emendations”, “restorations”, “corrections”, etc., in the Text or a supposed Synoptic problem (see Appendix A).
Toward that end, a “standard” harmony of the Gospels has been constructed which will address this subject in a Scriptural and scholarly, yet easy to understand, manner. To obtain optimal direct comparison capability, the computer word processor has been fully utilized so that key words in a given Gospel narrative may be placed alongside the same wording in the other Gospel accounts (a feature which was impractical heretofore). The computer also facilitated the inclusion of red lettering for the words of Christ. For these reasons, this “analytical” harmony will prove advantageous as a study aid over previous works such as Kerr’s (1903) and Robertson’s (1922), long held as standard references in the field.

Time Of The Signs
$16.99“What will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?” –Matthew 24:3
The disciples could not wait. Christ had said He would bring an end to human rule and establish His kingdom. But when? Eager to learn how the future would unfold, they asked Him about the signs of His coming and the end times. What should they expect to take place?
In The Time of the Signs, pastor Barry Stagner explores the events that will precede Christ’s return. As he describes Earth’s final days, he answers the many questions people ask, including:
*Why is the rebirth of Israel the most significant sign that the end times are near?
*What other important clues, evident today, reveal the closeness of the tribulation and Christ’s return?
*Where does the rapture fit in the chronology of all that will occur in the last days?
*After Christ returns, what is next?
As you study the signs Jesus foretold, you’ll see amazing evidence that we are living in the very time of these signs–and gain a clear understanding of what will happen, and when.
