Five Forgotten Truths

Five Forgotten Truths will call America’s Christians back to the truths that have been, literally, forgotten. If you’ve ever sat in church and thought, there must be more to it than this, then you need to read this book. It will lead you to a deeper walk with Christ and to a much better understanding of God and His great plan of redemption. What about salvation? Who is saved and how are we saved? Does God really expect us to be holy in our everyday lives? How do we achieve that? And what about stewardship? Do I have to attend church every Sunday to be a Christian? Five Forgotten Truths answers these deeply practical questions but also reveals the big picture answers behind them. Who is God and why did He create us? What is His plan for the world? For me? There really is more to it than this, and this is the book to help you find the answers you’ve always asked for but have never received.

This classic companion to The World's Religions articulates the remarkable unity that underlies the world's religious traditions

Forgotten Truths is a Christian classic by Sir Robert Anderson, where he discusses a number of Bible lessons he believed forgotten or misrepresented in the modern day. Lamenting what he viewed as a lapse in Christian consciousness towards some of the Bible's most important principles, the author embarks on an investigation which takes him across the Biblical New Testament. Much of the work concentrates upon the person of Jesus Christ, and the words and lessons dispensed by Christ during his lifetime. Other topics include the nature of God's plan for humanity, and the impending second coming of Jesus to the Earth. The perceived delay in Jesus' arrival is also addressed, with the Gospels consistently cited in support of Anderson's arguments. In all, the author sets out a vision of Christianity as he feels it should be, supported by the words of the Holy Bible. Sir Robert Anderson was one of England's most senior police commissioners who worked in London's Scotland Yard. The meticulousness of his profession is evident in his writing; readers can expect thoughtful and close readings of the Bible, as well as sophisticated and sometimes profound conclusions upon their truest meaning. This edition includes all five appendices, which explain the meaning behind specific phenomena in the Bible, together with passages Anderson found particularly important to the subject. Today, Sir Robert Anderson's numerous writings are underappreciated classics of Christian thought, sure to encourage contemplation in all who read them.

X-Men meets Spy Kids in this instant New York Times bestseller! Here’s the first book in a new middle-grade fantasy/adventure series from the author of The Unwanteds. Fifteen years ago, eight supernatural criminals fled Estero City to make a new life in an isolated tropical hideout. Over time, seven of them disappeared without a trace, presumed captured or killed. And now, the remaining one has died. Left behind to fend for themselves are the criminals’ five children, each with superpowers of their own: Birdie can communicate with animals. Brix has athletic abilities and can heal quickly. Tenner can swim like a fish and can see in the dark and hear from a distance. Seven’s skin camouflages to match whatever is around him. Cabot hasn’t shown signs of any unusual power—yet. Then one day Birdie finds a map among her father’s things that leads to a secret stash. There is also a note: Go to Estero, find your mother, and give her the map. The five have lived their entire lives in isolation. What would it mean to follow the map to a strange world full of things they’ve only heard about, like cell phones, cars, and electricity? A world where, thanks to their parents, being supernatural is a crime?
