Christians owe a debt to the Jew. Through the Jews came the Scriptures, the Messiah--the Lord Jesus--and the Church. This being true, it would make sense for Christians to gain an understanding of the Jewish roots of their faith. "He Made the Stars Also" addresses the Jewish Roots of Christianity covering various theological themes. This compilation of articles has circulated throughout the country with Dr. Johnson's Research Review and teaching letters. Pastors, Bible teachers, Jewish people and Christians in general have benefited from these sound bytes of pertinent information regarding Israel, prophecy and the Jewish roots of Christianity.

First Words: Genesis 1-2:7 is a verse-by-verse study of Genesis 1-2:7, highlighting the historical context, Rabbinical and Evangelical interpretations of the text, while unlocking the meaning of certain Hebrew words.

The debate over the timing of the Rapture has not waned. Will the faithful Church be taken up before the Tribulation, somewhere in the middle of it, or at the very end? In this work, I show an incredible Biblical pattern that clearly indicates a Pre-Tribulation Rapture. Along the way, further proof that there will be 7,000 years of human history corresponding to the seven days of Creation is offered. The last thousand years will be a sabbath millennium of rest instituted at the Second Coming of Jesus, and we are living in the brief window of time when the Rapture and Tribulation that proceeds this Millennial Reign of Christ must occur! The third section of the book answers some of the scientific objections to the Rapture, the 7,000 years, and some of the other literal history and prophecies of the Bible. It's time to wake up, because we are approaching the End of Days!

In this provocative book two authors--one a scientist, the other a biblical scholar and pastor--recount the pilgrimages of understanding that have led them from the young-earth, "scientific creationist" position they were taught in their youths to new perspectives on what it can mean to believe in God as Creator.

A repackaged edition of the revered author’s moving theological work in which he considers the most poetic portions from Scripture and what they tell us about God, the Bible, and faith. In this wise and enlightening book, C. S. Lewis—the great British writer, scholar, lay theologian, broadcaster, Christian apologist, and bestselling author of Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce, The Chronicles of Narnia, and many other beloved classics—examines the Psalms. As Lewis divines the meaning behind these timeless poetic verses, he makes clear their significance in our daily lives, and reminds us of their power to illuminate moments of grace.

Was there a star announcing the coming of the Jewish Messiah at the end of the first millennium BC? Did "wise men" come from the east seeking the newly born king of the Jews? How can one be sure? MUL.BABBAR: The Messiah’s Star approaches the “Star of Bethlehem” from a Jewish and Babylonian perspective. Babylonian astronomy and royal symbolism seem to give clues about the star. However, the royal celestial signs related to the coming of the Messiah are also connected directly to Judaism and the Bible. The Messiah's star announced the coming of a great king, The Greatest of Kings, destined to rule the world. This book is an updated, improved, and expanded version of The Lion Led the Way by the same author.

In "The Star of Redemption", written at the end and after World War I and published in 1921, Franz Rosenzweig presented an epoch-making Jewish-inspired philosophy of religion. In three steps, each with three chapters or "books," Rosenzweig unfolds in it his view of God, the world, and man, their interrelationship, and their contribution and role in the redemption of the world. In this introduction, young and old Rosenzweig scholars take readers by the hand chapter by chapter, book by book. They lead safely through Rosenzweig's argumentation, making sometimes difficult lines of thought comprehensible and plausible. The chapter introductions open up reliable access for interested readers and new perspectives for connoisseurs.
