Christianity & Critical Thinking
Mere Christianity Gift Edition by C. S. Lewis
"C.S. Lewis is the ideal persuader for the half-convinced, for the good man who would like to be a Christian but finds his intellect getting in the way." -- Anthony Burgess, New York Times Book Review Our moral consciousness and moral judgements are proof to the human race that a moral being exists--God. Mere Christianity explores the core beliefs of Christianity by providing an unequaled opportunity for believers and nonbelievers alike to hear a powerful, rational case for the Christian faith. A brilliant collection, Mere Christianity remains strikingly fresh for the modern reader and at the same time confirms C. S. Lewis's reputation as one of the leading writer and thinkers of our age. The book brings together Lewis' legendary broadcast talks during World War II. Lewis discusses that everyone is curious about: right and wrong, human nature, morality, marriage, sins, forgiveness, faith, hope, generosity, and kindness.

How do we know the Bible is God's Word? What is sin and where did it come from? How is Jesus fully God and fully man? What are spiritual gifts? When and how will Christ return?

Abridged from Wayne Grudem's award-winning Systematic Theology, Bible Doctrine covers the same essentials of the faith, giving you a firm grasp on seven key topics: The Doctrine of the Word of God The Doctrine of God The Doctrine of Man The Doctrine of Christ The Doctrine of the Application of Redemption The Doctrine of the Church The Doctrine of the Future Like Systematic Theology, this book is marked by its clarity, its strong scriptural emphasis, its thoroughness in scope and detail, and its treatment of such timely topics as spiritual warfare and the gifts of the Spirit. But you don't need to have had several years of Bible school to reap the full benefits of Bible Doctrine. It's easy to understand--and it's packed with solid, biblical answers to your most important questions.

Doctrina Biblica by Wayne A. Grudem
¿Cómo sabemos que la Biblia es la Palabra de Dios? ¿Qué es el pecado y de dónde vino? ¿Cómo es que Jesús es completamente Dios y completamente hombre? ¿Qué son los dones espirituales? ¿Cuándo y cómo volverá Cristo? Si se hace preguntas de este tipo, teología sistemática no es un término abstracto, solo es una forma de acercarse a encontrar las respuestas que todo cristiano debe saber. Este libro es un compendio de la sumamente recomendada Teología Sistemática de Grudem, el cual abarca las mismas cuestiones esenciales de la fe, dándole una firme comprensión sobre siete tópicos clave: La doctrina de la Palabra de Dios La doctrina de Dios La doctrina del hombre Las doctrinas de Cristo y del Espíritu Santo La doctrina de la aplicación de la redención La doctrina de la iglesia La doctrina del futuro Al igual que Teología Sistemática, este libro se caracteriza por su claridad, su fuerte énfasis espiritual, su minuciosidad en cada detalle y su referencia a temas actuales como la guerra espiritual y los dones del Espíritu. Sin embargo, usted no necesita tener varios años de estudio bíblico para obtener el beneficio total que brinda Doctrina Bíblica, ya que es fácil de comprender y cuenta con sólidas respuestas bíblicas a sus preguntas más importantes.
