The Power of Love: by Elder Sam Bryant There is no more powerful force than true, unfeigned love. It breaks down barriers; it blows away the enemy—and does him no harm. It lays the only sure foundation for peace. $3.00
Predestination, Providence, Preservation, and Perseverance: by Elder Ronald Lawrence Much of the confusion in religion comes from mixing those subjects all together like Mulligan’s Stew as if they were the same thing. Elder Lawrence does a masterful job of showing how they are related, and how they differ. $3.00
Ministerial Support: by Elder J. H. Purifoy Elder Purifoy shows the importance of the minister taking care of his ministry, and his congregation taking care of him. Not every minister can give his full time to the ministry, and not every congregation can provide for his entire livelihood, but Elder Purifoy shows the importance of preacher and congregation giving priority to the work.
Time Salvation: by Elder T. S. Dalton There are no conditions in our salvation for eternal heaven. It is made sure by the completed work of Jesus Christ. Nothing can deprive any child of God of what God has prepared for him in eternal heaven. But there are conditions involved in our enjoying the benefits of that salvation while we live in this world. God will never allow one of his own to slide off into eternal damnation, but he will lay on the lash in this world, if we disobey his commands. $3.00
The Final Judgment and a Burning Hell: by Elder Harold Hunt An examination of Matt. 25:31-46. The distinctive lesson of this passage is that not one person set on the left has the slightest trace of compassion for his fellow man, while every person on the right does manifest that genuine love. It show that this is a description of those who will spend eternity with God and those who will suffer eternally. 30 ppg. $3.00
The Sin Unto Death: by Elder Harold Hunt If one has been born again, he is heaven-bought, heaven-born, and heaven-bound. Nothing can deprive him of that eternal home God has prepared for him. But it is possible to so persist in disobedience that he is cut off from all the benefits of that salvation in this life. And sometimes the loss of every timely benefit is total, permanent, and irreversible. It can truly be a sin unto death. 29 ppg $3.00
The Law of Moses: by Elder Harold Hunt The Law of Moses was never intended to gain anybody a home in eternal heaven. It rather provided a system of worship, a system of government, a judicial system, and an entire social order for the Jewish people during the time it was in force, and as such it was the best system of law and justice ever enjoyed by any people at any time. It could not have been anything but the best, since God was its author. 21 ppg $3.00
Pray Without Ceasing: by Elder Harold Hunt God did not intend for us to go around all daying with our eyes cast heavenward, and mumbling a prayer under our breath. But it is possible to go through the day, with consciously feeling our dependence on the Lord, and pleading with him for strength for the moment. If a person does not know of anything he needs to pray about, he needs to pray first about his insensitivity to his own need. 24ppg $3.00
The Everlasting Covenant: by Elder Harold Hunt The covenant of grace, or the everlasting covenant is the driving force behind salvation by grace. Trying to understand salvation by grace, without knowing something about the covenant of grace is like trying to figure out the mysteries of an automobile without first discovering there is an engine under the hood that makes it go. 32 ppg. $3.00
Which System is Unfair: by Elder Harold Hunt If hearing and believing the preached gospel is the condition to escaping eternal damnation, how it that fair to the person who has never heard the gospel? How is it fair that a person who never heard the gospel is going to burn, while a miserly Christian who would not give to spread the gospel is going to live in heaven? 27 ppg $3.00
Predestinated Unto the Adoption: by Elder Harold Hunt If a person is born into the family of God, why is it necessary for him to be adopted. The booklet show that adoption is the huge framework in which every other part of our salvation fits. The new birth is a part of the adoption process. 16 ppg $3.00
The Sixteen Ancestors of all Mankind: by Elder Harold Hunt After the Genesis Flood, the three sons of Noah, and his sixteen grandsons spread out into the vast open places, and repopulated the earth. The names of those sixteen grandsons of Noah are so firmly fixed in the names of the various races, rivers, countries, and pagan gods of the ancient world, that no power is able to erase them. Those names persist to this very day, and bear record to the identity of those sixteen men. 27 ppg. $3.00
What God Hath Joined Together: by Elder Harold Hunt Marriage is God's institution. In the very morning of time he provided marriage, the family, and the home as a benefit to all mankind. It is God who established it and he has the right to provides the guidelines that govern it. It is the neglect of those God-given rules that is devastating society today. 25 ppg $3.00
Melchizedek, King of Salem: by Elder Harold Hunt Shem, the second son of Noah, was several times in the Bible referred to as Melchizadek. He was the similitude of one "without father, without mother, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life, but made like unto the Son of God. In that character he was the clearest of all types of the Lord Jesus Christ. 17 ppg. $3.00
Love Your Enemies: by Elder Harold Hunt If the thought of loving your enemies sounds like an impossible task, we should realize that the despair and desperation we sometimes feel at the hands of our enemies can drive us to more wholly trust in the Lord, and gain a closer walk with him, and if a closer walk with God is the one thing we desire more than anything else why should we feel mean at our enemy for sending us there? 26 ppg. $3.00
Not by Works of Righteousness: by Elder Harold Hunt If we take a good long look at the Bible record of its noblest of saints, we discover that not one of them could expect to gain heaven, if he was judged on his own track record. The last thing the Bible tells about Noah finds him passed out, stark naked drunk. Moses was a murderer; Abraham placed his wife’s virtue at risk to save his own life. Jacob was a liar and a thief; David was an adulterer; and so the record goes. If salvation is not wholly and solely by grace, we are every one lost world without end. 35 ppg $3.00
Which System Makes Sense: by Elder Harold Hunt Most religious people believe every religion, even their own, is a mass of contractions. But that is not true; true religion , based on Bible truth, is clear and logical and consistent. It makes sense; it does not contradict itself. 18 ppg. $3.00
They Shall Never Perish: by Elder Harold Hunt There is a saying that we "should never say never; never is a mighty long time. But when God says never, he means never, and when he says his sheep shall never perish, you can be sure his children are safe and secure in him. 17 ppg, $3.00
Jacob the Supplanter: by Elder Harold Hunt The first thing the Bible records of Jacob is that, as soon as he was born—to the best of his ability—he attacked his brother Esau, and he was forever cheating him and lying to him. Whether we want to believe it or not, Jacob is a figure of what every child of God is by nature, and what God has made him by his grace. 17 ppg $3.00
Adam’s Transgression: by Elder Harold Hunt Every living creature inherits the nature of its parents. Dogs give birth to dogs; cats give birth to cats; and sinners give birth to sinners. When Adam transgressed God’s law his nature became sinful, wicked, and depraved, and he passed that sinful nature on to every child descended from him. The sinner’s only hope is that he will be born anew with a new nature. 25 ppg, $3.00
The English Baptists and Their Confessions of Faith: by Elder Harold Hunt Baptists have never been fond of creeds, declarations of synods, and confessions of faith. They have always believed, The Bible is the Word of God, and the only rule of faith and practice. And yet in England, in the 1600's, the issued a spate of confessions of faith. How did those confessions come about, and what was their purpose? 22 ppg $3.00
The Lord is in his Holy Temple: by Elder Harold Hunt The glory of the Old Testament Tabernacle was not in all the gold, and silver, and fine twined linen. Its greatest glory was that God promised to meet his people there. The most humble little meeting house has a beauty that surpasses every other structure—if the Lord meets with us there. 28 ppg, $3.00
Even Christ Our Passover: by Elder Harold Hunt It has been said the New Testament is concealed in the Old Testament, and the Old Testament is revealed in the New Testament. The Law of Moses provided Israel with a system of sacrifices, feasts, and special days, pointing forward to the work Christ would do on behalf of his people. None of those figures was more clear and instructive that the feast of the Passover. 21 ppg, $3.00
Aaron’s Priestly Garments: by Elder Harold Hunt When Aaron was performing his priestly duties, he wore an ephod of "gold, and blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen, and it was adorned with gold rings and chains, and precious jewels. Every one of those symbolized the beauty of Christ’s work on behalf of his people. 15 ppg $3.00
Water Baptism: by Elder Harold Hunt Baptism is a symbol of our death, burial, and resurrection with Christ. The subject closes his eyes, quits breathing, is lowered under the water and raised up again. Then he usually shakes his head, opens his eyes, and begins to breathe again. It is impossible for human ingenuity to devise a more graphic symbol. 25 ppg, $3.00
Abraham and Isaac on Mount Moriah: by Elder Harold Hunt It is amazing how clear and instructive some of the figures of the Old Testament are. Abraham was a symbol of God the Father; Isaac was a symbol of God’s Son. The load of wood Isaac carries was a symbol of our sins laid on our Lord. The sacrificial blade and the fire symbolized the righteous demands of the law, and so on. 23 ppg, $3.00
Husbands, Love Your Wives: by Elder Harold Hunt The union between a devoted husband and wife is a symbol of the union between Christ and his bride the church. The more any husband and wife take the example of Christ’s unconditional love for his bride as their example, the more happy that marriage will be. 27 ppg, $3.00
The Mother of Our Lord: by Elder Harold Hunt Our Catholic friends are wrong when they refer to Mary as the Mother of God. Mary was not the mother of his God nature, but she was very clearly the mother of his human nature. And in that relationship she enjoyed a closeness with him that no other person has ever experienced. The Lord does not need any of us, but when he was a child—in that human nature—he needed Mary. She nursed him, and cared for him, as no other person ever did. 22 ppg, $3.00
I Have Set Before Thee Life and Death: by Elder Harold Hunt God did not offer to make that generation of Israelites to be the offspring of Abraham; they were already that. And he did not offer them eternal heaven; some of them will never be there. But he did promise them long life in the land of Canaan—if they obeyed—or unspeakable misery if they disobeyed. As a nation, they rebelled, and suffered the consequence. 30 ppg, $3.00
Dinosaurs: An Eyewitness Account: by Elder Harold Hunt Our evolutionist friends dig up their little piles of bones and tell us fantastic stories about the dinosaurs which once roamed the earth. They tell us those huge lizards all died out 65 million years ago. And yet, Job gives his eyewitness account of two species of dinosaurs (leviathan and behemoth) which were still around in his day. 19 ppg, $3.00
In the Beginning, God: by Elder Harold Hunt Man is not eternal; the universe is not eternal, in spite of what our evolutionists may think to the contrary. But God is eternal. Before there was man; before there was the sun, moon, and stars, before there was anything else, there was God. By the word of his power, he created everything there is. 17 ppg, $3.00
The High Price of Abortion: by Elder Harold Hunt Most of our social problems stem from the fact that for 34 years Americans have been killing our unborn children. How can Social Security survive, if we kill those who would have earned wages and paid into the system? How can we keep out illegal aliens, if we kill off those who would have filled the jobs the illegals come looking for? Who will fight our wars, if we kill off the soldiers before they are born? And so it goes. We will never build fences high enough, nor raise taxes high enough to do the job. The solution is to realize that when God said, "Thou shalt not kill," he meant what he said. 17 ppg. $3.00
Vanity of Vanities: by Elder Harold Hunt If ever anybody had everything he could wish for, it was King Solomon. He was the wisest of all men. He made silver and gold like cobblestones in Jerusalem. But he forgot God, and he was the most miserable of people. Before he died, he finally realized that the conclusion of the matter is "to fear God, and to keep his commandments." That is the only path to happiness. Aside from that, it does not make a lot of difference how much or how little we may have. 21 ppg, $3.00
Believing in Christ: by Elder Harold Hunt There is a world of difference between believing in Christ, and believing the preacher, when he talks about Christ. Like the unborn child in the womb of its mother, Christ dwells in the heart of every heaven born soul. And because Christ dwells in his heart, and bears witness in his heart, every born again person believes in Christ. It is the job of the preacher to teach his head to understand what his heart already knows. 26 ppg, $3.00
Absolutism: What Does it Really Teach? By Elder Harold Hunt For all their confident boasting about magnifying God, the absoluter really diminishes him. He is sure God could not know the future, if he had not already greased the tracks, and set every act and reaction in motion. He is sure that since God could stop any sinful act if he chose to, it must mean God wants that sinful act to happen. But the fact he can come up with clever little riddles does not mean that we have to agree with him that God is the cause of everything—however good or evil it may be. It is much better to admit that there are some things we cannot entirely understand or explain. 24 ppg, $3.00
What Did God Determine Before to be Done: by Elder Harold Hunt God determined that his Son would go to Calvary and give his life on behalf of his people. The wicked soldiers also determined that he should die at Calvary, but it was their intention to take his life. They would do God’s work for him; but they were not able to take his life. Had he not laid his life down, they could not take it. God determined he would do the work; they determined they would do it. There is a difference. 31 ppg, $3.00
From Judaism to Calvinism: by Elder Harold Hunt John Calvin gets credit for originating the system that bears his name, but the roots of that system are clearly traceable through Augustine of Hippo, through the Academy at Alexandria, and finally to the Pharisaism and Judaism of the first century. 42 ppg, $3.00
When God Thunders in the Heavens: by Elder Harold Hunt Most of religion gives its credit to the thundering voice of the preacher. The Bible gives more credit to the thundering voice of God. When God thunders in the heavens things happen. When the flood covered the face of the earth in Noah’s day, God thundered in the heavens, dropped the bottom of the oceans, and founded a place for the waters of the flood. When he gave the Law to Israel, he thundered in the heavens, and his voice shook the earth. When he died on the cross, the Lord thundered, and shook the earth. One day he will thunder in the heavens, and call the dead out of their graves. 28 ppg, $3.00
Castaway: by Elder Harold Hunt Paul expressed concern that after he had preached to others, he might himself be castaway. He had no doubt that every heaven-born soul is sure of eternal heaven. So what was he afraid of? He was afraid that—in this life—he might so transgress that he would lose everything worth having this side of the grave. $3.00
