DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Mormonism Refuted in the Light of Scripture and History: A Testimony to the Historical Church Hundreds of Mormon missionaries are at this time spread over all the United States. Nor are they without success in gathering recruits. Not only in Utah, but in parts of Idaho, Wyoming and Arizona there is a large Mormon population with preponderant control. At this writing, a polygamous Mormon is endeavoring to gain admittance to Congress. The Mormon question is evidently a living question. Pastors of all denominations are asking how they may meet the arguments which are being pressed upon their parishioners. Many laymen are perplexed over the plausible tenets of the Mormon faith as presented by its ubiquitous missionaries. There is, therefore, an urgent need of a clear presentation of the matter by one who by experience and ability is fitted for the task. Such a man I conceive the author of this volume to be. As the reader is entitled to know something of the man who has penned the following pages, I cheerfully commend him as a gentleman of earnest piety; and the fact of being a communicant member of an orthodox church, rather than a "free lance," will not lessen the weight of his message. That Mormonism, in its conception of God, is essentially pantheistic, will be a revelation to many; and the contrasts drawn between the Mormon and the historical Church gives the reader the best and most helpful point of view. In brief, the book is deserving of its title, "Mormonism Refuted," and it gives me much pleasure to commend it. May God make the publication useful in the promulgation of the truth.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1899 edition. Excerpt: ... Some of the Claims of Mormonism Examined. The Claim that the Historical Church Rejects the Spirit of Prophecy and Miracles. The Christian Church has never taught that there was no more need of prophets; on the contrary, it teaches that the spirit of prophecy is general in proportion as the individual is conscious of God and filled with the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit, knowing all the past and all the future, makes clear to the consciousness of the Church these things, in proportion to the receptibility of the believers. The historical Church, then, is not dependent upon any single man for its prophetic vision. The day of Pentecost passed, the Holy Spirit poured out, every believer is entitled to enjoy the great visions of the future, if he will only live and become absorbed in the idea of the new creation, --live in the dispensation of the Holy Spirit; as the great apostle says: "Desire earnestly spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy" (I Cor. 14: 1). The very fact, as stated by Orson Pratt in " Divine Authority," page 14, that miraculous evidence is not infallible, is the best argument why the Christian Church should not, and can not, rest upon carnal miracles; and that while everything is possible to him who has sufficient faith, the Church must, and can, exist without carnal miracles being an essential part of it. The claim of Mormonism, that the historical Church rejects prophesy and miracles, is a manufactured and-fase accusation. Upon such sweeping, but unproven, statements Mormonism builds a defense that is made to appear plausible to everyone who is not in the closest touch with Christian consciousness in history. Its claim, for instance, that the Christian CLAIMS OF MORMONISM EXAMINED. 23 Church does not believe in...

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWritten by an L. A. County homicide detective and former atheist, Cold-Case Christianity examines the claims of the New Testament using the skills and strategies of a hard-to-convince criminal investigator. Christianity could be defined as a “cold case”: it makes a claim about an event from the distant past for which there is little forensic evidence. In Cold-Case Christianity, J. Warner Wallace uses his nationally recognized skills as a homicide detective to look at the evidence and eyewitnesses behind Christian beliefs. Including gripping stories from his career and the visual techniques he developed in the courtroom, Wallace uses illustration to examine the powerful evidence that validates the claims of Christianity. A unique apologetic that speaks to readers’ intense interest in detective stories, Cold-Case Christianity inspires readers to have confidence in Christ as it prepares them to articulate the case for Christianity.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWinner of a 2004 ECPA Gold Medallion Award! Winner of an Award of Excellence in the 2003 Chicago Book Clinic! What is real? What is truth? What can we know? What should we believe? What should we do and why? Is there a God? Can we know him? Do Christian doctrines make sense? Can we believe in God in the face of evil? These are fundamental questions that any thinking person wants answers to. These are questions that philosophy addresses. And the answers we give to these kinds of questions serve as the the foundation stones for consrtucting any kind of worldview. In Philosophical Foundations for a Christian Worldview J.P. Moreland and William Lane Craig offer a comprehensive introduction to philosophy from a Christian perspective. In their broad sweep they seek to introduce readers to the principal subdisciplines of philosophy, including epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of science, ethics and philosophy of religion. They do so with characteristic clarity and incisiveness. Arguments are clearly outlined, and rival theories are presented with fairness and accuracy. Philosophy, they contend, aids Christians in the tasks of apologetics, polemics and systematic theology. It reflects our having been made in the image of God, helps us to extend biblical teaching into areas not expressly addressed in Scripture, facilitates the spiritual discipline of study, enhances the boldness and self-image of the Christian community, and is requisite to the essential task of integrating faith and learning. Here is a lively and thorough introduction to philosophy for all who want to know reality.
