"It belongs to the truth of our Lord's humanity," wrote B.B. Warfield, "that he was subject to all sinless human emotions." In this short volume, Warfield focusses on Christ's compassion, anger, and sorrow. Warfield (1851-1921), the last of the great Princeton theologians, was professor of theology at Princeton from 1887 until his death.

What happens when the king’s most obedient soldier is issued a wicked command? Benaiah is valiant against men and beasts. He is known for three heroic deeds that lead to his appointment in the elite force of David’s Mighty Men: aggressively going down into a pit on a snowy day to kill a lion; fighting two Moabite ariels; and challenging a giant Egyptian the size of David’s Goliath, armed with only a staff, and killing him with the man’s own spear. When David is crowned king, Benaiah is made his chief bodyguard and eventually head of the whole army of Israel under King Solomon. Reeling from the tragic cost of disobedience when he was young, Benaiah directs his life toward one chief aim: to be found a faithful, loyal, valiant and obedient soldier, servant of the King and follower of Yahweh. But when “just following orders” leads to his part in adultery, murder and death, he questions his life’s direction. If both obedience and disobedience cause death, how can he ever find redemption?

With Dr. Mears as teacher and mentor, readers will study the four accounts of Jesus Christ’s life and ministry: the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. They will gain a big-picture understanding of key events—Jesus’ miraculous birth, His ministry, His teachings, and His crucifixion and resurrection—yet also see how each Gospel evangelist chose to emphasize particular themes for his reading audience. Twelve sessions of study give readers an opportunity to examine Jesus’ life in depth, whether on their own or with a group, and discussion/reflection questions invite groups or individuals to go even deeper.

When Jesus died on the cross, it seemed that all had been lost. Death had won. But after three days in a rich man's tomb, Jesus appeared . . . alive! The news was so shocking that his followers refused to believe it until they saw him with their own eyes. Then Jesus made some amazing promises. His resurrection would change every aspect of their lives and their futures. In this fascinating look at the claims of the Gospel writers and two thousand years of believing Christians, bestselling author Josh McDowell and his son Sean McDowell examine the compelling evidence and present the facts about the resurrection and what it means for readers today.
