(The security of the Christian is complete and entire, wan...)
The security of the Christian is complete and entire, wanting nothing. There are, however, some pervasive—and dangerous—notions as the nature of Christian security. A false security, reasons the author, is worse than none at all, for it can breed carelessness and unfounded confidence. In this classic study, W. T. Purkiser presents a well articulated discussion of the great biblical promises that will safeguard our souls and keep us from presumptuous sin. Purkiser’s purpose is that we comprehend—and experience—the true security promised to all of Gods children. Paper.

(Prayer is a school from which we never graduate. Nothing ...)
Prayer is a school from which we never graduate. Nothing can take the place of prayer in the Christian life. The highest instruction of all is that expressed in the request of Christ’s disciples, ’Lord , teach us to pray’ (Luke 11:1). Because prayer is so central in the Christian faith, this book teaches what prayer is, the purpose of prayer, and how one should pray. Paper.

No podemos negar que entre las diferentes iglesias evangélicas existen conflictos doctrinales. En algunos casos los conflictos son obvios, mientras que en otros, se trata de malentendidos de interpretación. Este libro presenta la posición arminiana-wesleyana,comparándola con otras corrientes doctrinales presentes y haciendo énfasis en la base bÃblica sobre la que cada una de ellas está fundada.En su discusión honesta, exploratoria, y aun conciliadora,el Dr. Purkiser considera las siguientes preguntas básicas: • ¿Es la santidad imputada o impartida? • ¿Es la santidad progresiva o instantánea? • ¿Cuál es la naturaleza del pecado en la vida del ser humano? • ¿Cuál es la evidencia o señal de que el EspÃritu Santo está presente en la persona? • ¿Cuáles son las bases para la seguridad cristiana? 126pp.
