Book Description
Many people today would list many different things as being man’s dilemma—such things as health problems, unemployment, poverty, crime, war, and so on. Each, of course, is a problem found in every society, excluding none. One could say man’s dilemma is universal and they would be correct. However, each of the things listed above are actually the result of man’s dilemma, not the cause. The cause is found in man’s depravity. In that depravity, every un-regenerated human being sets his own standard as to his or her conduct of life. Man has rejected the absolute standard of his creator and as a result is alienated toward not only God, but from one another. Man has no solution for this and therein lays the dilemma. God, on the other hand, has the solution; it is found in His provision, the Lord Jesus Christ. In the pages of this work the author considers man’s dilemma God’s solution from eleven different perspectives. Each chapter is a study in itself, but fits nicely as one completed work.

Book Description
Most people go through life with questions unanswered. With so many religions and opinions floating around it is no wonder than people are confused and do not know what to believe. The vast majority adhere to their present belief as they were brought up with that particular faith but this can never guarantee that it is, in fact, the correct one. After all they cannot all differ and still be correct. The situation is crucial as if God does exist then He has the answers and if He does not our beliefs are in vain. Yet with eventual death waiting on the side lines of the playing out of our lives then obviously the wise thing would be to get to know the truth, if that is possible to do. Blind hope and blind faith in a person, or system, is like burying our heads in the sand and waiting to see if we, by pure luck, end up in a happy life after death. But what if we are wrong? What if the answer was there all along but was missed it due to ego, pride, stubbornness, procrastination, earthly ambition, laziness or any other thing that kept us from really examining the evidence for a loving, caring and solution giving God. If God is for real then, as our Creator, then is logical for Him to communicate with us, His creation, and supply us with the facts we need to know. Does He exist? Does he care about us? Is there anything He requires from us to fulfill our purpose? Will we continue in some form of life after death, and if so, are there opinions as to how we will fare in it. William Killen Wright has confronted these issues in his new book Man's Dilemma - God's Solution. He methodically leads his readers through various stages of inquiry. He begins by showing the logic and need of God, that there is a source of absolute truth as revealed by God in His written, the needed starting point of a spiritual birth provided through the sacrificial death of God's only Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, help to start living the new life, how to get to know our new Father better and how to prepare to finely meet God. It is hoped that this book will supply sought-after answers that many seek and be a blessing to all who read it.

Book Description
Over 400,000 Sold For over fifty years The God Who Is There has been a landmark work that has changed the way the church sees the world. Francis Schaeffer's first book presents a wide-ranging analysis of the intellectual and cultural climate of the second half of the twentieth century, from philosophy to art to liberal theology. Arguing that Christians must constantly engage the questions being asked by their own—and the next—generation, he envisions an apologetics and spirituality both grounded in absolute truth and engaging the whole of reality. "If we are unexcited Christians, we should go back and see what is wrong," Schaeffer writes. "We are surrounded by a generation that can find 'no one home' in the universe. . . . In contrast to this, as a Christian I know who I am; and I know the personal God who is there." In every age, this God continues to provide the anchor of truth and the power of love to meet the world's deepest problems. Named by Christianity Today as one of the "Top 50 Books That Have Shaped Evangelicals" (October 2006), this redesigned classic is now available as part of the IVP Signature Collection.

Book Description
The greatest threats to Christianity are those that are most unknown to the average Christian. The most difficult threats to discern are those that are blended into our very worldview - the ones that we think are true. The Scripture warns, "If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!" (Mt. 6:23), i.e., the worst kind of darkness is the darkness we think is light. One of the most neglected but pervasive threats to the Christian world and life view is that of neoplatonism. This leftover of ancient Greek philosophy is grounded upon a dual aspect to reality: It views that which is form or spirit (such as mind) as good an that which is physical (flesh) as evil. Neoplatonism is a "dialectical" philosophy that tries to reconcile two basically hostile concepts and retain both within its system. Neoplatonism presents man's dilemma as a metaphysical one, whereas Scripture presents it as a moral problem. Basing Christianity on this false neoplatonic idea will always shirt the faith away from the Biblical perspective. Modern ideas of spirituality have developed into a form of over against the Biblical model where the Spirit of God is active in the world and in the person to work out the will of God. Too many Christians believe they can escape sin if they can escape the material world. But Scripture says all of man fell into sin, not just his flesh. Flight From Humanity is a revealing look into the nature and effect of neoplatonism on contemporary Christian thought, and it offers sound Biblical solutions for the believer who desires to fully serve God.

Book Description
Most Christians take an honest look at themselves and conclude that their limited talents, energy, and knowledge mean that they don't amount to much. Francis A. Schaeffer says that the biblical emphasis is quite different. With God there are no little people! This book contains sixteen sermons that explore the weakness and significance of humanity in relationship to the infinite and personal God. Each was preached by Schaeffer at L'Abri Fellowship in Switzerland to the community that gathered there to work, learn, and worship together. The focus of this collection is the lasting truth of the Bible, the faithfulness of God, the sufficiency of the work of Christ, and the reality of God's Spirit in history. The sermons represent a variety of styles-some are topical, some expound Old Testament passages, and still others delve into New Testament texts. No Little People includes theological sermons and messages that focus specifically on daily life and Christian practice. Each sermon is a single unit, and all are valuable for family devotions or other group study and worship. Readers will be encouraged by the value that God places on each person made in His image.
