Septuagint : Clouding Gods Word
$12.98Add to cartMost of academia does not consider the Jewish Scriptures and the Old Testament portion of the Christian Bible to be one and the same. According to them, the original text of this part of God’s Word has been lost and is in need of “recovery.” To restore the original text, they maintain that the Hebrew Masoretic Text, the Samaritan Pentateuch, and the Septuagint must be compared.
The Septuagint (LXX) is an ancient translation of the Old Testament from Hebrew to Hellenistic Greek. This is almost the only hard fact concerning this translation that is truly verifiable. As the LXX is supposedly over 1,100 years older than the most ancient surviving Hebrew manuscripts, and as it often reads differently from them, text critics presume that the LXX was translated from an older, thus more reliable, Hebrew text.
Believing the LXX contains readings that have been lost or corrupted in the Hebrew Scriptures, critics hold that the Septuagint may be used in determined places to “correct and restore” these adulterated readings. Such is the status that the LXX holds in Old Testament text critical circles.
Indeed, one constantly reads that the Septuagint was “the” Bible of the early Christians. But-we wonder-is such veneration by academia justified? Does the New Testament frequently quote from the LXX instead of the Hebrew?
Rather than offering fanciful theories, this fresh critical analysis examines the above questions by presenting numerous side-by-side comparisons of the LXX Greek and Hebrew Masoretic text, as well as significant mathematical contrasts. This approach allows readers to discover the truth for themselves. The result will be surprising.

Galatians Verse By Verse
$22.99Add to cartAfter the Apostle Paul returned from his first missionary journey, he heard that a certain group of legalistic Jewish Christians had infiltrated the churches he had established. These false teachers were teaching that new Christians had to be circumcised and follow the Old Testament law in order to be truly saved. Paul, realizing the gospel was at stake, wrote this letter in response.
In Galatians Verse by Verse, experienced New Testament scholar sets forth Paul’s laser-focused argument: Jesus is not only the Messiah; he came to inaugurate a new era in salvation history. In this new era, Christians are not made right with God by obeying the law; justification is by faith alone. This frees believers to live their lives not trying to earn salvation, but instead joyfully keeping in step with the Spirit. Pastors, Bible study leaders, and invested laypeople will all benefit from Osborne’s careful reading of the text and commitment to making sense of the New Testament without scholarly jargon.
The Osborne New Testament Commentary Series is a set of commentaries on every New Testament book. In each volume, Grant R. Osborne seeks to carefully exposit the text in plain language, bringing out the treasures in each book and making them accessible for today’s readers.

Final Word: Perfection Is Eternal – Sin Is NotAdditional Info
How am I meant to feel as a Christian?You can go to an evangelical church on a Sunday and be told: “Christian, you are loved by God, no matter what you’ve done. God could not love you more than he does.” You can go to another evangelical church and be told: “You’re a wretched sinner”. The emphasis can feel very different, and yet both churches are teaching truth.
Holding both truths together in balance can be tricky but it’s essential for healthy Christian living. Overemphasizing one at the expense of the other causes all sorts of problems.
Perfect Sinners will help us keep the balance, as we distinguish between our “status” before God and our “walk” with him.

How Catholicism countered with its own reformation that included a revival of mysticism, a new army of spiritual soldiers, and the discovery of the New World. How restorationist movements countered the intellectual revolutions of their day with revivals of faith in the supernatural. How a decade-long prayer meeting shaped the future of revivalism affecting both England’s Wesleyan Revival and America’s First Great Awakening. How the French Revolution replaced Christianity with liberalism as the world’s dominant ideology. How many Americans countered this new revolution with a Second Great Awakening. How Phoebe Palmer began the modern Holiness movement and Jeremiah Lanphier launched a worldwide Laymen’s Prayer Revival. How many Americans reunited after the Civil War with a series of Holiness Camp Meetings, followed by a similar “Higher Life” movement in Britain, and later, a new stream of American healing ministries.

And together we have the capacity to impact the nation for God’s good, the good of our neighbours, and the good of ourselves. Will we?
