In 2204, humanity is expanding into the wider galaxy in leaps and bounds. Cutting-edge technology of linked jump gates has rendered most forms of transportation - including starships - virtually obsolete.

For years, Robert A. Peterson taught about the assurance of salvation in seminary and Sunday school classrooms.

Michael Morales examines the key elements of three major redemption movements in Scripture: the exodus out of Egypt, the second exodus foretold by the prophets, and the new exodus accomplished by Jesus Christ.

Have you ever wondered about the personal testimony of some who profess Christianity and Jesus Christ, and wonder know if they are truly saved or just possess a religion?

You see professing Christians with the conduct of life that would make someone wonder, are they really saved, or does the grace of God allow us to live any way we want without boundaries or responsibilities? Our Lord Jesus Christ told us that we would know them by their fruit. If we are to know them by their fruit, then there must be a ...

The doctrine of reprobation—that is, the eternal, unconditional decree of God for the non-elect—is frequently misconstrued in both pastoral and theological literature.

With Romans 9 as a guiding text, Sammons presents a thoroughly researched defense of reprobation as an essential part in a Reformed theology that magnifies God and encourages believers to trust in him.
