A Christian attorney argues that Bonhoeffer was correct when he said we have developed a "Christianity without Christ" and exchanged Jesus' gospel of costly grace for one of "cheap grace." Del Tondo reviews all the major salvation statements and parables by Jesus. He then compares them to the prevalent doctrines of 'faith alone' which Bonhoeffer called 'cheap grace.' Del Tondo demonstrates that Jesus' doctrines on salvation insisted upon repentance from sin and obedience to His principles, thereby falsifying faith alone doctrine.

How could a conservative Christian -- an ordained minister with a beard, no less -- be against not only Christianity, but theology, sacraments, and ethics as well? Yet that is the stance Peter Leithart takes in this provocative "theological bricolage."Seeking to rethink evangelical notions of culture, church, and state, Leithart offers a series of short essays, aphorisms, and parables that challenge the current dichotomies that govern both Christian and non-Christian thinking about church and state, the secular and the religious.But his argument isn't limited to being merely "against."

This book is a restatement of the life & teachings of Jesus as recorded in the New Testament Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke & John. Like an earlier effort by Thomas Jefferson, who produced The Jefferson Bible in the early 1800's, its purpose is to distill from the Scriptures only those verses truly portraying the life & teachings of Jesus. Each major event of his life is treated individually & then arranged in chronological order. Thus, it presents the story of Jesus as it actually took place, from birth through death & resurrection. This format promotes a better understanding of Jesus' real l
