In this classic treatise, first published in 1925, J. Gresham Machen explores biblical answers to this pivotal question.Lamenting the "false and disastrous opposition which has been set up between knowledge and faith" and continuing what was his longrunning polemic against liberalism, Machen speaks out against halfhearted, watered-down attempts at faith that seek to engage the heart and the soul yet disregard the mind. He illuminates the Bible's teaching on the foundational tenets of Christian faith, clearly demonstrating that it is knowledge - the intellectual pursuit and embrace of God the Father and Jesus Christ as revealed in Scripture - that forms the foundation of all true belief.

After three- quarters of a century, Dr. Abraham Kuyper's exhaustive study of the work of the Holy Spirit -- how available for the first time in a paperback edition -- still stands undiminished as a comprehensive Protestant statement about a central but much-misunderstood part of the Christian faith. "I have made an effort," Dr. Kuyper writes in his preface, "to represent the work of the Holy Spirit in its organic relations, so that the reader may survey the entire domain. And in surveying, who is not surprised at the ever-widening dimensions of the work of the Holy Spirit in all the things that pertain to God and man?" The 123 brief sections that make up this work first appeared in the Heraut, a Dutch religious weekly of which Dr. Kuyper served as editor. So it is that this profound exposition is lucidly written in the language of the ordinary people for whose spiritual growth he was deeply concerned.

And though she professes loathing, Olivia is attracted and fascinated by Dan. Fatally.5 women, 4 men

Höhere Analysis klingt zunächst einmal sehr schwierig, und je weiter man in seinem Mathematikstudium fortschreitet, desto anspruchsvoller werden die Themen natürlich. Um die Studierenden beim Verständnis für diesen Stoff zu unterstützen, erscheint nun ein weiterer Band der Tutoriums-Reihe der Autoren Kreh, Goertz und Modler.In dem Buch erläutern die drei Autoren den Stoff der Vorlesungen Analysis 3, Vektoranalysis, Mannigfaltigkeiten und verwandter Vorlesungen. Die Inhalte werden an verständlichen und ausführlichen vorgerechneten Beispielen erklärt. Das Konzept bleibt wieder das bewährte: Jedes Kapitel ist zweigeteilt in einen mathematischen Teil, in dem die Definitionen, Sätze und Beweise stehen, und einen erklärenden Teil, in dem die schwierigen Definitionen und Sätze auf gewohnt lockere und lustige Art und Weise mit mehr als 100 Beispielen und etwa 50 Abbildungen mit Leben gefüllt werden. So erhält der Leser einerseits einen Blick für mathematisch exakteFormulierungen und andererseits Hilfen und Anschauungen, die wichtig sind, um den Stoff zu verstehen.
