Does God Know The Future
$19.99
Does God know what we will choose to do in the future? If God knows the future, do we have a free will? Does God live outside of time? Is this idea biblical? If God knows who will be saved or lost, does it do any good to preach the gospel? Does God Know the Future? offers answers to these important questions from a radically biblical perspective, with intellectually satisfying arguments and easyto- understand practical application. Divided into biblical, philosophical, and practical sections, Does God Know the Future? addresses all the major elements of the foreknowledge vs. free-will question. Does God Know the Future? is a valuable tool for anyone interested in the “open theism” discussion. ——————————————————————————– Gilbert Bilezikian, Professor Emeritus of Wheaton College, says: “Does God Know the Future? was a necessary book. Before the term ‘open theism’ was ever invented, Michael Saia had already conducted a lifetime of careful research relevant to the current discussion. The results of this pursuit have now been made graciously available in Does God Know the Future? This book constitutes the most thorough presentation available on the subject of the ‘openness of God’ theology. In it, the biblical basis for the openness teaching is clearly described, and the arguments propounded against this teaching are systematically examined and critically evaluated. Because the contents of the book have been targeted to include a general readership and because its tone is irenic, it will benefit a wide public who may be aware of the present debate without knowing where to turn to receive simple answers.”

Render Unto Caesar
$28.99Add to cartThe revered Bible scholar and author of The Historical Jesus explores the Christian culture wars–the debates over church and state–from a biblical perspective, exploring the earliest tensions evident in the New Testament, and offering a way forward for Christians today.
Leading Bible scholar John Dominic Crossan, the author of the pioneering work The Historical Jesus, provides new insight into the Christian culture wars which began in the New Testament and persist strongly today.
For decades, Americans have been divided on how Christians should relate to government and lawmakers, a dispute that has impacted every area of society and grown more rancorous over the past forty years. But as Crossan makes clear, this debate isn’t new; it can be found in the New Testament itself, most notably in the tensions between Luke-Acts and Revelations.
In the texts of Luke-Acts, Rome is considered favorably. In the book of Revelations, Rome is seen as the embodiment of evil in the world. Yet there is an alternative to these two extremes, Crossan explains. The historical Jesus and Paul, the earliest Christian teachers, were both strongly opposed to Rome, yet neither demonized the Empire.
Crossan sees in Jesus and Paul’s approach a model for Christians today that can be used to cut through the acrimony and polarization roiling our society and dividing us.
