The willingness to believe in some kind of payback or karma remains nearly universal. Retribution awaits those who commit bad deeds; rewards await those who do good. Johnson explores how this belief has developed over time, and how it has shaped the course of human evolution.
The School of Nisibis was the main intellectual center of the Church of the East in the sixth and early seventh centuries C.E. and an institution of learning unprecedented in antiquity. Fear of God and the Beginning of Wisdom provides a history both of the School and of the scholastic culture of the Church of the East more generally in the late antique and early Islamic periods. Adam H. Becker examines the ideological and intellectual backgrounds of the school movement and reassesses the evidence for the supposed predecessor of the School of Nisibis, the famed School of the Persians of Edessa. Furthermore, he argues that the East-Syrian ("Nestorian") school movement is better understood as a...
The Surprising Good News of the Fear of the Lord "Let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, bringing holiness to completion in the fear of God." — 2 Corinthians 7:1 We all have experienced fear at some point. And if we are honest, we don't usually think of fear as a good thing. So why does the Bible call us to fear the Lord? In this book, Michael Reeves explains that the fear of God is not a gloomy fear marked by anxiety but a heartfelt and happy enjoyment of God as Creator and Redeemer. As we learn more about the surprising good news of the fear of the Lord, we will discover the vital role we play in displaying to the world the awesomeness of our God.
Dr. Randy Stinson and Dr. Timothy Paul Jones have been the primary architects of the theological foundations for whathas become known as “family-equipping ministry”—a recognition that the generations need one another and that parents have an inherent responsibility for the discipleship of their children.
John Bunyan's A Treatise of the Fear of God (1679) presents the benefits of fearing God Almighty. Bunyan argues that if the fear of God takes root in the heart of believers, they will remedy their ways and come to the path of righteousness. He states that only a humble mind and heart will be the abode of God's fear. Those who deem themselves lofty will never be able to benefit from it.
The loss of the fear of God has been the greatest devastation to our nation and to the body of Christ. It is the sign of the end times, the mark of falling away from the Lord. O how we need to recapture the fear of God in this day so that we all might be found prepared for the Lord's return. We are living in the very days before the Lord's return when the prophecies of scripture are being fulfilled all around us. Yet few are being prepared for his return with the holiness that He will demand. We must follow after “holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord” (Heb 12:14). Such holiness cannot be obtained without the fear of the Lord being brought back into the church and especially into its leadership. This book shows how the fear of God has been forsaken, and it exposes the heart of compromise that is the spirit of our age. Ask yourself, how are you being prepared by the preaching of the fear of the Lord so that your life meets Christ's holy eyes?

These days the terms good and God seem synonymous. We believe what’s generally accepted as good must be in line with God’s will. Generosity, humility, justice—good. Selfishness, arrogance, cruelty—evil. The distinction seems pretty straightforward. But is that all there is to it? If good is so obvious, why does the Bible say that we need discernment to recognize it? Good or God? isn’t another self-help message. This book will do more than ask you to change your behavior. It will empower you to engage with God on a level that will change every aspect of your life.
