A Must read for all proclaiming Christians.
Fox's Book of Martyr's is as precise an account of the tribulation period as there is to be read. Yes, that tribulation period, the one most think is ahead of us in time and will be a mere 7 years. I realize I am one of a very few who believe these are the Martyr's ...

Great Book

The Civil War as a Theological Crisis
Mark A. Noll
The University of North Carolina Press
, 2006
"an unbridgeable chasm of opinion"
This is the book that every Protestant evangelical who invokes "the sole authority of Scripture," and who insists upon the "simplicity," "plain meaning," and "clarity" of its message, should read. I wish a similar monograph had existed when I was in seminary, and that ...

Roman Catholic Controversy, The

I highly recommend this book, and have given copies to both Protestants and Roman Catholics. White superbly demonstrates the difference between the true biblical gospel of grace and the false "gospel" of Rome.
