The Secrets of Christianity is a short, to-the-point elucidation of what Christianity has ignored over the last two millennia. This takes all of twenty-five pages and includes subjects such as our relationship with Creation. It is followed up by "To the Christians", an epistle for the last days of Christianity. Then an exegesis of Hebrews and an exegesis of James, looking at what the writers actually said. The last section is an exploration of Paul's Mystery, linking it to Jesus' words, John's Revelation, and our actions.This book is designed to provide the reader with the requisite tools for determining what is relevant in the doctrine handed down by the church, what to do about it, and how to anticipate what is coming next. The Secrets of Christianity is a 'farewell' to the last two millennia, and a 'welcome' to those who will soon be stepping into the position of companions of the Christ.

Genesis Unfolded is a new and unique translation of Genesis using the actual Hebrew morphology rather than simply appealing to lexicons and previous translations. With over one thousand footnotes as well as the meaning of every single person or place's name, it is based on the idea that every letter in Hebrew has a unique meaning. When this fact is explored, the rich and subtle depths woven into the text unfold; the veil of the unknown is lifted by thorough research into the letters themselves and the hints embedded within their arrangements. Furthermore, the poetic forms of the unique Hebrew syntax are preserved rather than anglicised. Genesis Unfolded thus becomes an ideal primer for the Student of Hebrew who wishes to encounter, in English, the intricate poetic devices that Hebrew employs; not devices controlled by an outside set of grammatical rules, but what proceeds from the language and form of the text itself. Genesis Unfolded presents the Scripture in its full archetypal depth and raw beauty.

"e;Humility is confidence."e; So begins one of 33 subjects, each handled with the refreshing simplicity and depth of a genre tragically sparse since John began his epistle so long ago. "e;That which was from the beginning..."e; has tantalized theologians and philosophers for 2000+ years. No author can hold a candle to John but we can, however, learn the lesson that John gave us and dive unflinchingly into the issues that affect every single one of us with plain explanations instead of theological platitudes. Humans are sensitive and vulnerable: we require simple truth expressed in a straightforward, uncomplicated, and uncompromising manner. "e;A believer is someone who believes God."e; "e;Forgiving is giving of ourselves."e; Each subject is given four paragraphs headed by the same theme sentence. Each paragraph states its point plainly then shuts up. The 33 subjects cover issues ranging from peace and faith to time and space. Neither more words nor less than required have been given to each subject. Here is an introduction to clarity of thinking without the baggage of philosophy, theology, or filibuster. Deeper issues are left deep. Simple issues are stated simply. Ice Cream Melts is a work for those who enjoy straight truth with simplicity and sincerity.

To read this novel is to see the depth of your own mirror.

The New Darby Version combines one of the best translations made in the English language (1884) with the ease of modern speaking. The distinctions made between using you (plural) and thou (singular) are still there; the pronouns are marked for you. In fact, nothing has been changed except vocabulary words; the New Darby Version is as precisely like his original as possible. It is available for reproduction in large parts as only the copyright for the publication of the whole is retained. John Nelson Darbys translation combines a breathtakingly accurate rendition combined with easy readability and beauty; it is a copy that you will find yourself reaching for again and again. Suitable for study, leisure reading, or public forums, this edition is neither a scan nor a copy; it is a word-for-word transcription and the result of years of work. The purist who loves JNDs archaic version can flip to the Appendix and find a list of every single word that has been changed. The only thing this edition lacks (stay tuned though) is Darbys footnotes; however it does have the most complete collection of his Bible introductions ever published in English. To present as comfortable a read as possible in one volume, the Old Testament is in nicely sized 9-point, and the New Testament has a generous 10-point type. Darbys translated directly from the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek without depending on a critical text (a particular work presenting the best possible combination of variant readings) in a day when this demanded actually going and visiting each manuscript where it was being held. His Greek prowess was legendary, and there are many passages in the New Testament where the sense given in his translation is still head and shoulders above the rest . . . after 130 years. Reluctant to displace the King James Version in his day, he held back from publishing the Bible in English until near the end of his life; his German and French translations are landmarks. This translation comes very highly recommended by those who read as a daily habit and require a translation that both conveys the beauty of scripture and the precision of meaning.
