Summary of Christian Doctrine (eBook) by Louis Berkhof
What is religion? It is only by the study of the Word of God that we can learn to know the nature of true religion. The word ‘religion’ is derived from the Latin and not from any word that is found in the original Hebrew or Greek of the Bible. It is found only four times in our translation of the Bible, Gal. 1:18, 14; Jas. 1:26, 27. The Old Testament defines religion as the fear of the Lord. This fear is not a feeling of dread, but of reverent regard for God akin to awe, but coupled with love and confidence. It is the response of the Old Testament believers to the revelation of the law. In the New Testament religion is a response to the gospel rather than to the law, and ass
umes the form of faith and godliness.
Introduction to the New Testament (eBook) by Louis Berkhof
This little work on New Testament Introduction is the result of labor done in and for the classroom, and is primarily intended for my own students. It is not and does not pretend to be a work of original research, but depends in a large measure on the labors of such men as Davidson, Reuss, Weiss, Westcott, Lightfoot, Godet, Holtzmann, Julicher, Zahn, e. a. The indebtedness to these will be evident from its pages.
Why & What: A Brief Intro to Christianity (eBook) by Douglas Jones
Imagine that you are mistaken about everything you hold dear. Suppose you wake up one morning and clearly realize that your long-held, day-to-day views of nature, social values, and self are obviously mistaken
. Common things that you have seen for years take on a whole new light. The world hasn’t changed, but different things stand out in odd ways. Things you once adored are now utterly disgusting. Things you once hated now command your deepest loyalty. You can now see through your motives and rationalizations in a way hidden before. How could you have been so naive?

At the opening of the fifth century, in the person of the British monk, Pelagius. The novelty of the doctrine which he taught is repeatedly asserted by Augustine, and is evident to the historian; but it consisted not in the emphasis that he laid on free will, but rather in the fact that, in emphasizing free will, he denied the ruin of the race and the necessity of grace. This was not only new in Christianity; it was even anti-Christian. Jerome, as well as Augustine, saw this at the time, and speaks of Pelagianism as the ‘heresy of Pythagoras and Zeno’;and modern writers of the various schools have more or less fully recognized it. Thus Dean Milman thinks that ‘the greater part’ of Pelagius’ letter to Demetrias ‘might have been written by an ancient academic’; and Bishop Hefele openly declares that their fundamental doctrine, ‘that man is virtuous entirely of his own merit, not of the gift of grace,’ seems to him ‘to be a rehabilitation of the general heathen view of the world,’ and compares with it Cicero’s words:’For gold, lands, and all the blessings of life, we have to return thanks to the Gods; but no one ever returned thanks to God for virtue.’ The struggle with Pelagianism was thus in reality a struggle for the very foundations of Christianity; and even more dangerously than in the previous theological and Christological controversies, here the practical substance of Christianity was in jeopardy. The real question at issue was whether there was any need for Christianity at all; whether by his own power man might not attain eternal felicity; whether the function of Christianity was to save, or only to render an eternity of happiness more easily attainable by man.

This short, but powerful, website can be helpful for students of logic of every caliber, whether you are learning the art of logic for the first time, or need a reminder of terms to keep your mental sword sharp.
Peter tells us in 1 Peter 3:15, “but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,”. Part of being prepared is knowing how people twist the truth and create arguments against the true Word of God. Believers must be equip to “… destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ,” (1Cor 10:5).
