God has a divine plan to release his people from the curse of desolation and barrenness. Satan also has a strategy, however, which is to lock us to our past. He uses a threefold cord of the demonic spirits of Jezebel, Athaliah, and Delilah--strongholds that seek to destroy not only us but also generations to follow--to block us from victorious Christian living. But by exposing the plans of the enemy, God's people can be released from barrenness and launched into expansion, growth, and multiplication. Sandie Freed takes readers through a close study of each of these demonic forces in order to prepare them to break the threefold demonic cord. Conducting a biblical exploration of the everyday tactics of each spirit, Freed lays bare their strategies and helps readers defeat them through prayer.

A Three-Fold Cord is the culmination of a decade of study and teaching, in seminar fashion, on the progressive revelation of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. God has planned to save sinners from before the beginning of time, and His redemptive purpose has been faithfully and consistently foretold by prophets and sages across the whole of human history. The Three-Fold message of the Blood, the Water and the Spirit point us to the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Messiah. Salvation is a person, and the gift of eternal life is available to all who believe the Gospel and lay hold on its timeless promises. Believers and unbelievers alike rejoice when they give heed to the expert testimony of the One who cannot lie. Phil's years of training experience have come together with his deep love of the Lord to bring forth a clear and engaging argument- -not for a "punch my ticket" salvation, but for a practical, transformational, and enduring commitment to a victorious walk with Yeshua. Unsure of God's love for you? Read this book and be comforted. Walking with Him? Read and be blessed. Dr. Joel Orr, Futurist, Writer and Speaker, Orr Associates International There is no greater message than the message of the gospel, and there is no greater mandate than sharing it in a way that people can understand and grow to be disciples of Jesus Christ. This book shares the powerful message of the death, burial, and resurrection by demonstrating the undeniable thread that is woven throughout both Testaments of Scripture. Enjoy the message and the experience of the New Birth in Jesus Christ! Pastor Buddy Thompson, Life Church, Richmond, Virginia

At the start of the gay rights movement in 1969, evangelicalism's leading voices cast a vision for gay people who turn to Jesus. It was C.S. Lewis, Billy Graham, Francis Schaeffer and John Stott who were among the most respected leaders within theologically orthodox Protestantism. We see with them a positive pastoral approach toward gay people, an approach that viewed homosexuality as a fallen condition experienced by some Christians who needed care more than cure. With the birth and rise of the ex-gay movement, the focus shifted from care to cure. As a result, there are an estimated 700,000 people alive today who underwent conversion therapy in the United States alone. Many of these patients were treated by faith-based, testimony-driven parachurch ministries centered on the ex-gay script. Despite the best of intentions, the movement ended with very troubling results. Yet the ex-gay movement died not because it had the wrong sex ethic. It died because it was founded on a practice that diminished the beauty of the gospel. Yet even after the closure of the ex-gay umbrella organization Exodus International in 2013, the ex-gay script continues to walk about as the undead among us, pressuring people like me to say, "I used to be gay, but I'm not gay anymore. Now I'm just same-sex attracted." For orthodox Christians, the way forward is a path back to where we were forty years ago. It is time again to focus with our Neo-Evangelical fathers on care--not cure--for our non-straight sisters and brothers who are living lives of costly obedience to Jesus. With warmth and humor as well as original research, Still Time to Care will chart the path forward for our churches and ministries in providing care. It will provide guidance for the gay person who hears the gospel and finds themselves smitten by the life-giving call of Jesus. Woven throughout the book will be Richard Lovelace’s 1978 call for a "double repentance" in which gay Christians repent of their homosexual sins and the church repents of its homophobia--putting on display for all the power of the gospel.

Lessons for the Christian's Daily Walk Devotional and Practical Meditations on the Book of Ecclesiastes George Mylne, 1859 Editor's note: This is the best devotional commentary on the book of Ecclesiastes that we have ever come across! In each verse which he comments on, George Mylne first views the verse just as Solomon intended from the perspective of mere human wisdom. That is, the book of Ecclesiastes is simply God's record of the rational conclusions of the wisest and most experienced man who ever lived. In other words, Solomon seriously thought upon all of life, the world and everything in it and concluded that all are puzzling enigmas, emptiness, vanity, meaningless, purposeless, futile, hopeless, vexatious, unsatisfying, unjust, etc., etc. Secondly, Mylne then views each verse from the Christian perspective that is, through the lens of the cross of Jesus. From this perspective, all the enigmas are solved, all the meaninglessness and futility of life is removed, and all the injustices are rectified. Only through the cross, does life become meaningful, purposeful and satisfying!

This book tables the controversial topic of the biblical view of alcohol. What does the Bible really teach? The Biblical text seems to sometimes approve and sometimes condemn the use of alcohol. God did not intend for us to exist in this chaotic mist! There must be an answer, a solution... we must be able to arrive at the truth as set forth by the Author of the Scriptures. Dr. McDowell's painstaking research deeply probes the Word of God and he buttresses his findings with historical and scientific evidence. This three-fold cord - The Biblical, the Historical and the Scientific - is not quickly broken.

Are you embarrassed by the Bible? The Bible is full of stories that make us uncomfortable: Israelites stoned adulterers, slaves were told to obey masters, Jesus declared that sinners go to hell, and God commanded His people to kill others, both young and the old alike. In response, many of us opt for a feel-good faith by embracing only the socially acceptable verses and passages. In Uncensored, Brian Cosby disrupts this deadly trajectory by explaining why all Scripture is God-breathed, holy, and essential to us as believers. And he invites you to quit hiding behind the fig leaf of half-truth and embrace a healthy, passionate faith.
