Biblical history comes to life! This book is a fascinating blend of historical fact and narrative fiction that weaves a rich tapestry of the life and times of the biblical prophet Isaiah. It begins during the reign of King Uzziah who plays a major part in determining the parents of Isaiah. The mother rejects her baby who is then raised by his father, a court reporter in the palace.Isaiah was an unwanted child, a reluctant prophet, who worked during the reigns of four kings. He overcame his hesitation and served for 60 years as a messenger for God, preparing the people of Judah first to survive the invasion of Assyria, then later to prepare for the more serious captivity under Babylon. He wrote many of the beautiful promises we memorize today that continue to comfort God's people as we prepare for the Second Coming.The book has it all-drama, jealousy, narrow escapes, pagan worship of idols, wars and enslavement, deception, leprosy, royalty, intrigue, an earthquake, kidnapping, child sacrifice, romance, miracles, the rise and fall of kingdoms-set against a historical backdrop rich in details with unparalleled scope. These details of life and everyday conversation paint a realistic picture of Isaiah's life from childhood to youth and on to adulthood. No spoiler alerts here. You have to read the book!"You will never think about Isaiah in the same way after reading Dr. Virginia Smith's book on his life and ministry. Be prepared for a creative and enlightening read that brings the ancient prophet vividly to life." ~ George R. Knight, Professor Emeritus of Church History, Andrews University "I was able to relate to parts of the book, and it expanded my imagination, so I want to study more in the Bible. This is a must-read book about Isaiah."~ Michaela Yonathan, 12-years old "This book took me to new heights of my love for prophetic books-a perfect book for teens and young adults." ~ Dr. Kham Khan Khai, Lecturer, Asia-Pacific International University

Scott Burgess's entirely new commentary on the book of Revelation inspires courage and faithfulness in the reader as it reveals, page after page, how the end-time judgment is the most joyous event in history: Jesus' marriage to His bride. Readers will treasure The Wedding: Jesus Stands for His Bride in the Book of Revelation for both its educational and devotional value.The author upholds the traditional Adventist methodology of allowing Scripture to interpret itself, and looking to history to confirm fulfilled prophecy. With that said, he also introduces a number of fresh insights. He highlights fascinating linguistic and conceptual connections with other portions of Scripture that many of us have not identified before. Those who pore over this tome will find a number of areas they readily agree with, and other areas that will require prayer and reflection before forming a decision, but nearly all will acknowledge Burgess' skillful manner of provoking prayerful thought and contemplation.What makes this book truly worthwhile is the presence of Christ. Burgess stresses the ubiquity of His manifestation throughout the book-as the One who stands seven times on behalf of His bride, empowering her to withstand the fiercest opposition for the sake of faithfulness to Him and His commandments. For those of us who are living in the judgment hour, Jesus offers us the enormous privilege of issuing the final wedding invitation to the world, sitting with Him upon His throne, and living with Him for eternity.

God is not the author of war or calamity but He uses these disasters to the only source of help. He has implanted deeply in every heart a consciousness of Himself to which we instinctively turn in moments of sorrow or danger.The world situation demands a deeper consecration on the part of God's people. The work that must be done can never be accomplished by merely using better plans or new devices. It will not be finished by might or by power but by the Spirit of God. It will be finished by earnest prayer and deeper consecration; by men and women who know their God and who go forward by faith in Him.

Alonzo Trévier Jones (1859-1923) spoke before a United States Congressional subcommittee in 1889, to oppose the Breckinridge Bill,which sought to compel Sunday observance in the District of Columbia. He soon became a world-famous writer and speaker for religious liberty. He served as co-editor of The American Sentinel, a public magazine defending the principles of freedom in the United States.His desire was to awaken more interest in the study of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, which would clarify the understanding of men's liberty of conscience. This book will help each reader to see the relation that should exist between civil government and religion, according to the words of Christ and the American Constitution.

For the last several decades the human nature of Christ has been the subject of intense study in some scholarly Seventh-day Adventist circles. The publication of "Questions on Doctrine" (1957) set the stage for almost three decades of as yet unresolved debate, witnessed most recently in the two opposing views published side by side in the June 1985 issue of Ministry magazine.Dr. Ralph S. Larson, for several years Coordinator of the Church and ministry department of the Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary, Far east, enters the debate with The Word Was Made Flesh, with a limited, rather specialized objective. Dr. Larson does not deal directly with the whole issue of Christ's human nature. He traces the understanding of this aspect of Christology within the Seventh-day Adventist Church from 1852 until 1952.Dr Larson provides here a fairly comprehensive survey of the historical evidence, and his contribution to the study of this important topic is extremely valuable. Whether we agree or not with his conclusions, we are all indebted to him for the painstaking work of assembling this extensive compilation of statements made in writing by Seventh-day Adventists for one hundred years.For some readers, careful reading of "The Word Was Made Flesh" may not provide all the definitive answers sought, However, it will surely prove to be for all a most enriching and stimulating experience.

Clever book titles abound, often obscuring the real message of the author. Not this one. This book discusses exactly what its title announces: the reality of the spiritual warfare daily facing God's people and the certainty of victory!Few Christians grasp the vast implications of this awesome and wonderful truth.

The material contained in this book is Biblical and solidly supported from the voluminous supplemental inspiration graciously given our people in the Spirit of Prophecy --Dr. George H. Akers
