The Center and Heart of the Scriptures

Daily Prayer and Praise:
The Books of Psalms Arranged for Private and Family Use
by Henry Law

Daily Prayer and Praise The Psalms are not only to be used in church but at home. They were individual songs before they became a means of congregational prayer and praise. Will not their sincere and regular use by individuals and families contribute to greater awe and joy in the church's worship of the Triune God?

In these volumes, Henry Law divides the Psalter into easily managed portions for each day. Every verse of every psalm is discussed and plainly expounded to aid the family leader in his work of teaching his family the Bible and the Gospel of Christ. This is not a scholarly work meant to display brilliance, but a practical work to point it readers and hearers to Christ. Law explains the goal of his work in this way:

Christian households will surely be assembled on each day for domestic worship. Piety cannot allow the morning to open and the evening to close without united prayer for common blessings and united praise for common mercies. Religion will cease to be the pervading element in the house in which the inmates fail thus to present themselves together at the throne of grace... It is presumed, too, that a portion of Scripture will have a place in these exercises, and that familiar comments will enforce God's Word. The Book of Psalms will doubtless not be excluded. Its central position as the heart of Scripture—its devotional character as part of the Jewish liturgy—its adaptation to every circumstance of life, rather entitle it to especial consideration... All attempts to elucidate by critical acumen is utterly eschewed. If it had been possible for the writer to introduce conclusions of learning, they would have been rejected as adverse to the plan... It is the reader's profit to find identity in his individual experience. He will often be constrained to feel that He who indited these words knew accurately the secrets of each heart, and presents a mirror thoroughly divine (from the Preface).

About the author: Henry Law was Dean of Gloucester in the eighteenth century and an influential figure in the evangelical party of the Church of England. These volumes were originally published in 1878.

The Greatest Hoax on Earth?
Refuting Dawkins on Evolution
by Jonathan Sarfati

The Greatest Hoax on Earth? Dr. Jonathan Sarfati, author of the world's best-selling creation book, takes outspoken atheist Dr. Richard Dawkins on head to head in the book The Greatest Hoax on Earth? Refuting Dawkins on Evolution. Dawkins' most recent book, The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution has provided yet another opportunity for Sarfati to show that biblical Christianity best explains the natural biological world, not atheistic evolution. Sarfati thoroughly exposes the bankruptcy of Dawkins’ arguments and methods, highlighting tactics which he deems are unreasonable and illogical—such as Dawkins frequently resorting to straw-man arguments.

The Greatest Hoax on Earth? Refuting Dawkins on Evolution provides a penetrating examination of Dawkins’ anti-creationist magnum opus. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of biology, geology, fossils, radiometric dating and more, Sarfati thoroughly exposes the bankruptcy of Dawkins’ arguments. Thousands of years ago, King Solomon wrote, "The first to plead his case seems right, until another comes and examines him." Sarfati maintains that arguments for evolution and against creation sound convincing only when they are unexamined.

Richard Dawkins is known for his strident atheism, for which he needs evolution. Jonathan Sarfati is known for declaring that the biblical account of origins has abundant evidential support and has withstood the test of time. And unlike some writers, he is able to make the science accessible to the lay reader, making it an informative and educational read that is also an intellectual feast for the scientifically trained. The Greatest Hoax on Earth? pulls together the most up-to-date arguments against evolution and in defense of the biblical account of origins and may very well prove to be Sarfati's second bestseller.

"In my opinion Sarfati's book beats Dawkins' book, point by point, on all issues."

Morning Thoughts
by Octavius Winslow

Morning Thoughts With great pleasure, we offer this edited, large-type reprint of Octavius Winslow's morning devotions, titled Morning Thoughts. These thoughts were selected by Winslow himself from his writings. Unlike other daily devotionals, these daily portions elucidate only one or two thoughts from the day's text rather than providing a comprehensive view. The advantage of this approach is that the selections are deep, heart-warming, and inspirational—just what is needed to offer a Christ-centered beginning to each day.

As is true of all of Winslow's writings, this volume is a gem. Representing devotional writing at its finest, it is replete with memorable statements for spiritual edification. Use this book to treasure those sacred truths of Scripture that will mold your thoughts, words, and actions of Christian living. Also see
Evening Thoughts, Winslow's companion book of 365 "end-of-the-day" devotionals.

About the author: Octavius Winslow was born in London in 1808, and raised in New York. He was ordained as a pastor in 1833 and held pastorates in New York, Leamington Spa, Bath, and Brighton. A prolific author, his devotional writings exhibit his Reformed, experiential convictions and distinctive, warm, ardent style.

Sample excerpts from Morning Thoughts:

"The man who lives with God in little matters, who walks with God in the details of his life, is the man who becomes the best acquainted with God—with His character, His faithfulness, His love."

"Believing prayer is prevailing, successful prayer. It assails the kingdom of heaven with holy violence, and carries it as by storm. It believes that God has both the heart and the arm, both the love that moves Him and the power that enables Him, to do all and to grant all that His pleading child requests of Him."

Studies in the Sermon on the Mount
by D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones

Studies in the Sermon on the Mount A spiritual classic, this detailed and comprehensive study by one of the greatest expository preachers of our time explains Christ's teaching in the Sermon on the Mount and incisively applies it to the Christian life. Originally a two-volume set containing 30 sermons each, this new edition combines all 60 sermons into one unabridged volume of nearly 700 pages.

With characteristic vigor and emotional vitality, Dr. Lloyd-Jones presents a brilliant and detailed exposition of one of the best known but most frequently misunderstood passages of Scripture. Here is a comprehensive and exhaustive study of our Lord’s words as recorded in Matthew, chapters 5-7. This beautiful portion of Scripture is carefully analysed, its contents outlined and thoughtfully arranged, and vastly rich and abundant truths are gleaned for the reader’s spiritual nurture.

The author brought a wealth of devoted study as well as a profound spiritual appreciation to the work of interpreting this greatest address of our delightful experience in meditation. It presents depth of thought in simple language and beauty of style and contains a veritable thesaurus of spiritual truths drawn from the entire Bible.

"Books on the Sermon on the Mount are legion, but Lloyd-Jones’ penetrating work deserves to be classed among the very best of them... These messages deal seriously with the meaning of the biblical text, probe deeply into the human heart, and come to grips with humanity’s profoundest needs." —Southwestern Journal of Theology
