Christians often struggle to understand the role of God's law in their lives. They may distort the law, turning it into a checklist to try to earn God's favor, or they may live as though the law doesn't apply to them. In this booklet, Dr. R.C. Sproul explains the purpose of the moral law and how it applies to Christians today. As he walks through each of the Ten Commandments, we see that the law doesn't merely expose our sin; it also reveals the character of a holy and gracious God and shows us how to live lives that are pleasing to Him. The Crucial Questions booklet series by Dr. R.C. Sproul offers succinct answers to important questions often asked by Christians and thoughtful inquirers.

More than four decades ago, Virginia O'Hare had a miraculous visitation from God. He said, "Virginia, in you, I am well pleased. I have chosen you to be my last day prophet. Through you, 10 million souls will be saved." Virginia thought, "Only 10,000,000 souls?" God answered, "10 x 10 million souls will be saved through you. Everyone in the world will know who you are." Virginia, then a 42-year-old single mother, raising three children, and working in her successful real estate business, ignored this calling from God. Years later, after the passing of her husband of 45 years, and her two daughters, she wrote her first book, Virginia O'Hare's Trials, Triumphs, and Vision from God. Two years after its publication, tragedy struck her life again. She witnessed her only son, Robert Anthony, being brutally assaulted by three Sheriff's Deputies in her own home. They had forced their way into the house, without a search warrant, and ignored her son's civil, and Constitutional rights. The nightmare of seeing her son bloody, bruised and in shock, terrified her. Fighting for her son's life and seeking justice, became her quest, which led to the birth of this book. She vividly details the horrible acts of corruptness, bias, and politics, in the Lake County Judicial System in Tavares, Florida. At age 80, God again revealed Himself to Virginia. He told her to remind the world that His Ten Commandments are forever, and the End of Days are here. Our Founding Fathers birthed Man's Laws in the U.S. Constitution, based on the Bible and God's Ten Commandments. Since then, man has failed to create, amend, and enforce laws that conform to God's laws. The Holy Spirit inspired Virginia's writing of this biblical journey. From God's Creation of the world 6000 years ago to the End of Days and beyond, Holy Scriptures document the prophetic message that Jesus Christ is mandatory for mankind's salvation, and He is coming very soon!

Building on the foundation of Kingdom through Covenant (Crossway, 2012), Stephen J. Wellum and Brent E. Parker have assembled a team of scholars who offer a fresh perspective regarding the interrelationship between the biblical covenants. Each chapter seeks to demonstrate how the covenants serve as the backbone to the grand narrative of Scripture. For example, New Testament scholar Thomas Schreiner writes on the Sabbath command from the Old Testament and thinks through its applications to new covenant believers. Christopher Cowan wrestles with the warning passages of Scripture, texts which are often viewed by covenant theologians as evidence for a "mixed" view of the church. Jason DeRouchie provides a biblical theology of “seed” and demonstrates that the covenantal view is incorrect in some of its conclusions. Jason Meyer thinks through the role of law in both the old and new covenants. John Meade unpacks circumcision in the OT and how it is applied in the NT, providing further warrant to reject covenant theology's link of circumcision with (infant) baptism. Oren Martin tackles the issue of Israel and land over against a dispensational reading, and Richard Lucas offers an exegetical analysis of Romans 9-11, arguing that it does not require a dispensational understanding. From issues of ecclesiology to the warning passages in Hebrews, this book carefully navigates a mediating path between the dominant theological systems of covenant theology and dispensationalism to offer the reader a better way to understand God’s one plan of redemption.

What Does God Think about Technology? From smartphones to self-driving cars to space travel, new technologies can inspire us. But the breakneck pace of change can also frighten us. So how do Christians walk by faith through the innovations of Silicon Valley? And how does God relate to our most powerful innovators? To build a biblical theology of technology, journalist and tech optimist Tony Reinke examines nine key texts from Scripture to show how the world's discoveries are divinely orchestrated. Ultimately, what we believe about God determines how we respond to human invention. With the help of several theologians and inventors throughout history, Reinke dispels twelve common myths in the church and offers fourteen ethical convictions to help Christians live by faith in the age of big tech. Biblical, Informed Look at Technology: Written by the author of 12 Ways Your Phone Is Changing You and Competing Spectacles: Treasuring Christ in the Media Age Gathers Ideas from Industry Experts and Theologians: Interacts with Christian and non-Christian sources on technology and theology including John Calvin, Herman Bavinck, Wendell Berry, and Elon Musk Educational: Discusses the history and philosophy behind major technological innovations
