Can you believe the Bible? What is this book,
really? Is it only a collection of ancient legends and literature,
as many believe? What about scientific discoveries that "disprove"
the Bible? What about historical and archaeological finds—do
they contradict the Bible, or confirm it?
These are crucial questions. Humanity faces challenges that
threaten our very existence, yet all too often we ignore the
one source that actually has the answers. Shouldn't we, then,
check to see if this source really is true?
You can discover the truth for yourself in Is
the Bible True? This eye-opening, full-color booklet
discusses these vital questions and helps you find the answers.

myth being foisted off on us? Why aren't you being told the eye-opening
other side of the story?

of Associates for Biblical Research, on the historical accuracy of the
Bible, his research on Jericho, and scholarly bias against the biblical

A World Without the United States
Is it unthinkable to imagine a world without the United States? The Sept. 11
attacks, and assaults on the American government, showed that the nation
isn't invincible. What would the world be like without its only superpower?
Are You Putting Off Your Salvation?
Many people have an understanding of the truth of God but put off
acting on it for reasons that aren't biblically justified. What do the Bible's
examples show us of people who were confronted with their need to change?
Are We Missing the Message of God?
Almost 2,000 years ago a humble teacher from Galilee was forsaken by His
friends, abandoned by His followers and unjustly tried and executed as
a criminal-for you. How much has this lesson in love sunk into your thinking?

Seven Reasons Why Jesus Was Born
The Gospels tell us that Jesus of Nazareth died in the spring of the year,
at the time of the Passover. But why did He have to die? We need to
understand why it was Jesus' destiny to be born into our sin-sick world.
Who Was Jesus Christ?
Jesus of Nazareth made many astounding claims-not the least of which
