Does the Bible support the concept of 'once saved, always saved, '
or can a person lose his or her salvation? How do the Scriptures
portray the complex interplay between grace and free will? These
and related questions are explored from different angles in this
thought-provoking Counterpoints volume. The contributors each state
their case for one of four prominent views on eternal security:
classical Calvinist, moderate Calvinist, reformed Arminian, and
Wesleyan Arminian. In keeping with the forum approach of the
Counterpoints series, each view is first presented by its
proponent, then critiqued and defended. This fair and respectful
approach allows you to weigh for yourself the strengths and
weaknesses of the different doctrinal stances. By furnishing you
with scholarly and thoughtful perspectives on the topic of eternal
security, this book helps you sift through opposing views to arrive
at your own informed conclusions. The Counterpoints series provides
a forum for comparison and critique of different views on issues
important to Christians. Counterpoints books address two
categories: Church Life and Bible and Theology. Complete your

Is There a Way to Heaven? The great evangelist John Wesley believed
there is, and he developed his theology to help people make the
journey from sin to salvation. In Wesley's "order of salvation,"
God's grace is the keynote from start to finish. The Way to Heaven
is a twentieth-anniversary revision of John Wesley's Message for
Today. Dr. Steve Harper presents Wesley's writings and the ideas of
Wesley scholars in language that is clear and accessible but never
simplistic. Written in the spirit of Wesley, here are "plain words
for plain people." The heart of this book is a thoughtful and
inspiring look at Wesley's theology of grace and its power to
transform. Included are two new chapters. "Vision and Means"
explores Wesley's mission and methods, and "To Serve the Present
Age" considers the impact and relevance of his message today. In
addition, an updated reading list facilitates further study, and
questions at the end of each chapter stimulate personal reflection
and small group discussion. Ideal as a textbook or for personal
study and reflection, this book will advance your knowledge and
piety as you travel "the way to heaven."
Steve Harper exhorts us not to have just a devotional time, but to
have a devotional life. The seven weekly sessions in this workbook
illustrate how John Wesley's devotional life can be applied to our
own. The devotionals cover scripture, prayer, and fasting, among
other topics.

reminds..."

This volume in the United Methodist Studies series challenges
United Methodists to engage in life-transforming practices. The
author explains a theme and underscores major emphases within the
United Methodist denomination. This adult study is divided into
four sections with suggestions for group discussion, and can be
completed in 4 to 8 sessions. No leader s guide is needed. The
sections are: Living from the Heart - This chapter examines the
essence of prayer and devotional life for United Methodists:
holiness of heart and life. The chapter is divided into two
sections to enable this examination: Communion (heart) and
Compassion (life). Read and Pray Daily - Exploring these two
central disciplines in Christian formation and the Wesleyan
Tradition guides readers into practical expressions of what it
means to read devotionally (lection divina) and pray continually
(the life of prayer). Get Connected! - The idea of
"connectionalism" is a significant part of our tradition. This
chapter examines this idea from two vantage points of classic
formation principles and the concrete structures Wesley used in
early-Methodism, which still contain implications for today. Go On!
- The cultivation of prayer and devotional life in United Methodism
is not about "attainment" but rather about "journey." This chapter
examines the pilgrimage motif through the two lenses of the
biblical doctrine of Christian perfection, and the practical
development of that message through an action/reflection model of
Christian formation. "
Can Skipper the pilot complete the raid and get his crew safely
home? The crew: Eric the nose gunner wants to end the war with a
profit. Norman the flight engineer dreams of using his basic flight
training to fly Lily home on a "wing and a prayer". Joe the radio
operator has been recommended for officer training, and worries
about the youth and inexperience of his fellow crewmen. Arthur is
just out of flight training, and this is his first mission. Taff is
the mid-upper gunner. He may appear to be the clown of the crew,
but there is a bit more to Taff than that. Finally, there is Tony
in the rear turret with his movie-star good looks. Tony has a lot
on his mind, he is in trouble, and he can't even tell his friends
why. So apart from that, the flack and the Luftwaffe, everything
should be "Tickety Boo". Bon Chance Lily.
Ethel and Bill Brown await the arrival of Violet's new young man -
the posh Trevor who works in fine art - and Ethel has made a
splendid tea to impress Trevor. But nothing impresses him so much
as the painting of an old horse which Bill truculently shows him
when Trevor doesn't believe the story behind it. Determined to make
a killing, Trevor introduces the Browns to Mrs Miller and Toby, a
mother and son with definite attitude and a very nasty pair of bolt
cutters. But who's fooling who? A comedy with a twist for three men
and three women.
It's September 1918 on the Western Front, and Sergeant Tommy Atkins
and Coporal Dave Rawlings from the Third Essex Battalion are doing
all they can to stay alive during the final months of the First
World War. They receive an unexpected visit from an officer,
Lieutenant Hargreaves, who announces that Tommy is to be awarded
the Military Medal for his courage in combat. Why, then, are Tommy
and Dave so keen to see the back of him? And who is the strange
Icelandic character that enters the scene, brandishing a sausage?
This is a funny, poignant play about friendship, humanity and
survival.
