| Does God know the future? Or is the future unknowable even to God? Arguing that God interacts with his creatures spontaneously, the controversial new movement known as "open theism" has called classic church theology up for reexamination. Confronting this view, classic theists maintain that God has complete foreknowledge and that open-theist arguments are unorthodox. Each view has implications for our vision of the future and of God's dealings with humanity. Millard Erickson investigates the claims and counterclaims of both sides of the debate, looking at questions about prayer, the nature of evil, and the free will of human beings. He considers biblical and hermeneutical issues, the historical development of the doctrine of divine foreknowledge, philosophical influences, the doctrinal structure of the debate, and the practical implications for the church and believers today. What Does God Know and When Does He Know It? is a thorough and fair examination of both sides of this debate that arrives at some thought-provoking conclusions. |

| What Does Jesus Say About… categorizes many of the key words, concepts, and phrases of the Lord Jesus Christ from the New Testament on various issues and matters about God, life on earth, death and eternity. Almost every word Jesus spoke is referenced and indexed. Also, since many of Jesus’ statements apply to more than one area of life, they are classified according to the subject matters He addresses. The book is set up in an easy to use A to Z format. Both traditional and contemporary terminologies are utilized in the subject headings. Each entry gives the context or setting and location of the event. Many of the listings provide additional cross-references to similar and related Bible passages. In addition to the A-Z entries of Jesus’ teachings, the book contains appendixes on How to Personally Know Jesus, Resources for Additional Study, and a Map of Major Events in Jesus’ Ministry. |

| Just as plants need certain essentials to grow-light, water, and fertile soil-so do new Christians-babes in the faith. Without these essentials-the basic truths of the faith-they will never establish strong roots or bear fruit. Adrian Rogers has written a book designed to give new believers the nurture and care their faith needs to blossom and grow. What Every Christian Ought to Know seeks to give intellectual truth, and also to provide the "spiritual nutrients" required to produce mature faith. |
