As sparks flew upward, Christian prophets like Tozer, Lewis, Phillips and others, were flung as burning embers across the theological landscape of the last century. They smoldered, then ignited, with the flame of their torches feeding on the unseen, setting the very air on fire, lighting the way, seeking to astonish and awaken God's church through their prophetic pens. Like the prophets of old, these refugees from yesterday wore a halo of sanctity, had long memories and a fierce loyalty to Truth; qualities that linger, indelibly stamped on our memories and imaginations. They stood in a howling theological wilderness like solitary prophets, weeping over a world becoming more and more empty of God. And, standing in the midst? The author of this Classic book - Arthur W. Pink. God was not and is not willing to allow the reality of Who He is or how He is to be experienced to be obscured by either nature, the heathen, the pagan or the fool. Through His revelation, He has made Himself known. Through God's revelation we understand that He is sovereign. This Classic book - The Doctrine Of Election -- introduces and orients the reader to critical biblical/theological thinking about God -- with a clarity that fosters biblical thought and facilitates Bible comprehension. You won't be disappointed.

Richard Sibbes (1577-1635), one of the most influential figures in the Puritan movement during the earlier years of the seventeenth century, was renowned for the rich quality of his ministry. The Bruised Reed is a book by Richard Sibbes that comforts the despondent and fearful Christian using the words of Matthew 12:20 (which quotes Isaiah), A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out. Many Christians have found this book to be remedy to doubt and burden.
This exposition breaks down into three basic parts: (1) Christ will not break the bruised reed; (2) Christ will not quench the smoking flax; (3) Christ will not do either of these things until he has sent forth judgment into victory. Sibbes explains the main text under these three headings and then intersperses searching application throughout the book. In this book powerfully written book the Puritan preacher provides a tenderhearted, Christ-exalting exposition and application of Isaiah 42:1-3. Since its initial publication in 1630, The Bruised Reed has been a source of encouragement to people at every stage of their spiritual journey alike; regardless if you are searching for God, just starting a relationship with Him, striving in your relationship with God or surrendered to God and His will; this book can be helpful for you.

.The Children's Bread and the Debate of Whether a Christian Can Have a Demon 2nd Edition
There is a debate going on here in North American Christianity.
One side, the side that doesn't practice deliverance, is saying: A Christian can't have demons-he just needs to go to church more and read his Bible more.
The other side, the ministries of deliverance, are saying: We don't have time to debate with you. We are too busy ministering deliverance to Christians.
The Children's Bread thoroughly examines this debate through the lens of Scripture as well as practical evidence. Mark Chase finds:
- The Bible does not teach that all demons leave at conversion.
- There is no Scripture that says that Christians cannot have demons.
- The Biblical concept of man's tripartite nature shows how born-again individuals can simultaneously have the indwelling Holy Spirit and a demon.
- The Bible teaches the overriding principle that:
God delivers those who belong to Him.
- Most Christians cannot find help in their churches. As a result, they have to go to deliverance ministries to receive the healing and deliverance that God promises.
- The only ones who say that Christians cannot have demons are precisely the ones who do not sit with others to conduct deliverance in the first place.
MARK CHASE is a deliverance minister who heads up Invicta Ministries of Deliverance and Inner Healing in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Since 2012, he has been sitting with both born-again Christians and nonbelievers to minister the deliverance and healing of Christ. Chase also leads Invicta Academy, the teaching and certification arm of Invicta Ministries.

Think of it God's revelation, the Bible, records that the magnificent, omnipotent, eternally self-existent One, Who was before there was a beginning, or time, or space, or anything, has chosen to make Himself known. This God, Who fills all things, yet is contained by none, Who exists within eternity, yet is greater than eternity, has stepped from eternity into time. His intention? To reveal, not just His characteristics, qualities or attributes, but His identity -- Who He is -- and how we can relate to Him. His revelation? The astounding reality that He is One, a Singular Being, yet a union of three persons -- Father, Son and Holy Spirit -- and that He, as Father, invites His children, the Son's disciples, through the intimate presence of the Holy Spirit in their lives, to share in and experience the profound intimacy of Their union. Why is did God - what is it that necessitated His stepping from eternity into time? One of the primary answers to that question is found in the title of this book: The Total Depravity Of Man. Powerfully Written An Excellent, Exciting Exposition of the Word of God Pink explores and explains this little-understood, oft confused, yet intriguing biblical truth: For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

When facing the challenges that life throws at us we sometimes get overwhelmed with what to do. God's wisdom is the answer to all decisions that have to be made but wisdom has to be understood or it can't be processed into action. This book is written to help us understand what God is saying concerning anything that we are facing.
Jesus was taught wisdom when He was growing up and we need to know what source was used to teach Him that wisdom. All Jewish families used the book of Proverbs to instill boundaries, priorities, dangers, values, and responsibilities into the mind of the child as he studied the other scriptures of the Bible. God has blessed us with the same source to establish these things in our minds.
This book is to help us to understand the wisdom of God as we walk out our lives before Him in His wisdom.

Published in 1875, Rent Veil was written by Scottish theologian and poet Horatius Bonar. Bonar's Rent Veil treats a variety of topics, most directly the atonement.
The title refers to Christ and Christ's body. Bonar claims that without the broken (rent) body of Christ, there would still be a barrier (veil) between us and God. With Christ's death, there is the possibility of the forgiveness of sins.
In Bonar's interesting treatment of the atonement, he also makes some intriguing points regarding the relationship of the Old Testament to the New Testament. Throughout, Bonar supports his points with liberal quotations from Scripture. The final third of his book provides an instructive call for believers. In it, Bonar extols believers to, and describes for them, the kinds of people God desires--worshipers, temples, priests, and kings.
Despite being published over a hundred years ago, Bonar's prose is surprisingly up-to-date and easy to follow. For an interesting treatment of the atonement, one can do no better than Bonar's Rent Veil.
Horatius Bonar was born at Old Broughton, Edinburgh, Scotland, whose brother was Andrew Bonar. Following his education at the University of Edinburgh, he maintained an active and powerful ministry for more than half a century pastoring churches in that area until his death. Throughout his life Bonar avoided all sensationalism and was calm, patient, sincere, solemn and a steady writer. His tracts and books are well-received and well-read in all Christian circles. He wrote well over 600 hymns of which more than 100 are still in use. Bonar has been described as the prince of Scottish hymn-writers.
John Bunyan Known throughout Christendom his classic work Pilgrim's Progress -- which is the most popular and influential book in the history of the church (aside from the Bible). Unfortunately, a sad consequence of this is that Bunyan's other works have been greatly eclipsed by the popularity that Pilgrim's Progress has enjoyed over the centuries. Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners (Bunyan's spiritual autobiography) is one such work.
Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners -- Here is powerful, penetrating insight into a life abandoned to the saving, sanctifying grace of God. How gracious is God's grace and how relentless is He in the pursuit His children. Bunyan's autobiography does what should be natural for every child of God. He gratefully magnifies the grace of God -- John 3:30, He must increase, but I must decrease.
Bunyan will illuminate your understanding and show you that, with Christ the Conqueror on your side, you have nothing to fear
One of the Finest Powerfully-Written Profound
Ending the Glorious Race is the autobiography of Richard Cortez. He was born in 1927, in San Antonio, Texas.
When Richard grew up, Spanish was treated like curse words. He reflects on the racial struggles of the 1940s. Richard then joined the U.S. Navy in 1946.
After sailing around the world, he decided to go to college and study music. After graduation he met his beautiful wife, then became a Band Director. He taught music in Texas, Hawaii and California.
His marriage was mostly happy, with a few rocky points that shook the foundation of their vow before God. The Lord had mercy on him, and saved him at 72. A few years after his conversion, the Lord put Richard through the toughest trial of his life, his wife being diagnosed with Alzheimers.
Outwardly he appeared to be a good citizen, but inwardly he knew he was a sinner and in need of Savior. At the age of 72, the Lord had mercy on Richard and rescued him.
After becoming a Christian, the Lord would put Richard through one of the most painful trials of his life. Lupita, his wife, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. As she slipped into senility, Richard struggled to show the love of Christ to his dying wife.
The interesting part of this work by Bonaventure is that for us it is a return to mysticism for a Church which has been embattled by the sophistication of the rational to a point that the only mystic experience we are permitted to tolerate these days is that of sci-fi films, paranormal documentaries, or popular film culture which insists we believe in something out there without ever daring to suggest that God may be out there. Enter, Bonaventure, from the 13th century who suggests to us 800 years later, that knowing God is not some philosophic jeu des enfants but something more akin to love.
God is majestic, holy, high and lifted up - yet he is also near and most apparent in the simple things of life. That is the message of this 18th-century inspirational classic by Jean-Pierre de Caussade. Its encouragement to live in the present moment, accepting everyday obstacles with faith, humility and love, has guided generations of believers to holiness and spiritual peace.
This famous spiritual treatise also includes the many insightful letters written by de Caussade on the practice of self-abandonment. These numerous letters provide a great additional source of wisdom and practical guidance for how to grow in abandonment and to deepen our union with God in our daily lives.
De Caussade shows that this practice of self-abandonment to God's will is the key to attaining true peace and virtue, and that it is readily available to all people - from beginners to those well advanced in the spiritual life. He also shows how to determine what God's will is for us. He reveals that it is not extraordinary feats that God expects for our growth in holiness, but rather heroic attention to every detail in our lives and humble acceptance of our daily lot in life as coming from His hand.
The rich spiritual lessons in this book have stood the test of time, offering real and practical assistance to all people because its message is simple and clear, one that the reader will find to be a rare treasure of inspiration and direction to be referred to again and again.
Since its first publication, The Kneeling Christian has helped hundreds of thousands of believers discover the key to God's treasure house of blessing.
This classic book on prayer, written by An Unknown Author sometime before the 1930's, answers the most basic and often-asked questions Christians have about prayer:
How shall I pray? What is prayer? Must I agonize? Does God always answer prayer? Who may pray?
Prayer, though an essential part of Christian experience, remains mysterious to many believers. The author set about to familiarize Christians with the source of power available to them through prayer.
According to The Kneeling Christian, All real growth in the spiritual life--all victory over temptation, all confidence and peace in the presence of difficulties and dangers, all repose of spirit in times of great disappointment or loss, all habitual communion with God--depends on the practice of secret prayer.
This powerful, time-tested book points the way toward communion with God and all the life-changing benefits that derive from it.
Praise God It has taken me great courage to write this book. Like some of us, it is hard to admit that there is or was an Addiction in our lives. I cried out to God to Save Me and Stop Me from destroying myself with Food
We live in a world that puts demands on us to Pleasure Yourself in many ways. What do you mean, you may ask, Pleasure Yourself? Many of us struggle with ADDICTIONS secretly, whether we want to admit it or not. We look to whatever we can use to comfort us or ease the pain of life.
My calling and purpose for writing this book is to help the body of Christ who deal with Food Addiction, and to discover there is a way of escape from over eating, through Tithing Your Food to God.

Love is the fountain of life, and the soul which does not drink from it cannot be called alive. These are the ancient words of Bernard of Clairvaux (1090 - 1153), a great lover of God and considered the last of the Church Fathers.
Bernard was Cistercian monk and followed very strict disciplines. He chose to live in a primitive hut in a marshy valley rather than a wealthy Benedictine monastery nearby. Why? He said, I was conscious my weak character needed a strong medicine. Later he founded 70 monasteries and was the leader of the monastery at Clairvaux, France. He taught that to know God we need to be devoted to him in poverty, simplicity, and solitude. His writings had a profound influence on Martin Luther, who called him the best monk that ever lived, and John Calvin.
