Paperback. Condizione: Fair. On F. B. Meyer's death in 1929 The Daily Telegraph called him 'The Archbishop of the Free Churches'. The New York Observer noted that 'He has an international fame and his services are constantly sought by churches over the wide and increasing empire of Christendom.' To the secular press of his time he was a key player on the world scene - yet this is the first chronological account of Meyer's life. Meyer was the minister one of Britain's first 'megachurches'. He was friends with D. L. Moody and ministered on both sides of the Atlantic, mirroring in America what D. L. Moody was able to undertake in the U.K. He came from a conventional, middle class Victorian background and experienced no dramatic conversion. He was not a distinguished scholar or dramatic orator. His slight figure and retiring manner meant that he did not stand out in a crowd. Yet he drew crowds by the thousands, wrote books, which sold by the millions, and attracted working class people.The range of Meyer's activities is astonishing: preacher, pastor, writer, social activist, free church leader, Baptist president, advocate for missionary work and more. In his last years, he declared, 'If I had a hundred lives, they should be at Christ's disposal.' At times, it seemed as though he was living a hundred lives.…

Paperback. Condizione: Good. Within evangelicalism today it can sometimes seem there are two competing versions of the gospel. There is the gospel of the kingdom with its focus on God's plan to restore the world. And there is the gospel of the cross with its focus on the offer of forgiveness. These two emphases create contrasting models of discipleship and mission.In Crown of Thorns Tim Chester shows how these two gospels are really one gospel - the message of the King who establishes justice in a surprising way.…

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. When Jesus said to Nicodemus, ?You must be born again?, the devout and learned religious leader was unsure what Jesus meant. It would seem nothing has changed. Today ?born again Christians? fill churches that are seen as ineffectual at best, and even characterised by the ?mosaic? generation as ?unchristian?   The term ?born again? has been devalued both in society and in the church. Those claiming to be ?born again? live lives that are indistinguishable from those who don?t; they sin the same, embrace injustice the same, covet the same, do almost everything the same.   Being ?born again? is now defined by what people say they believe. The New Testament however defines Christians very differently.   ?When Jesus said to Nicodemus, ?You must be born again? (John 3:7), he was not sharing interesting and unimportant information. He was leading him to eternal life? If he does that for you (or if he already has), then you are (or you will be) truly, invincibly, finally alive.? John Piper.…
