Walter Martin Discovered in my Garage!
Dr. Walter Martin
Ok, I admit that's a bit dramatic but...
Friends who have known me for long know that the late, great, Dr. Walter Martin was a like a mentor to me. Though the original "Bible Answer Man" and prolific author of books such as The Kingdom of the Cults has been in Glory since 1989, his ministry to me and many others still lives on. I am blessed that Dr. Martin's oldest daughter, Jill, and I are not only friends but also now regular co-hosts together on "Understanding the Times Radio with Jan Markell." I've recounted to Jill that I would not be in the ministry I am in today had it not been for Dr. Martin's daily radio ministry and the many resources - that I still refer to often. Today, over 30 years later, his memory lives on and continues to inspire and educate me. Praise the Lord!

Today I opened a box and found 14 absolute jewels - Walter Martin VHS ministry videos! They were sealed copies, each in a case, and had been donated to us by our friend, Ed Decker from Saints Alive in Jesus.

I have twelve VHS copies of Dr. Martin's classic debate with Mormon apologist, Van Hale, including both parts 1 and 2. I also have two VHS copies of the apologetics classic on witnessing to Mormons, "Dialog at the Doorstep" featuring Dr. Martin and our friend, Ed Decker, who is perhaps best known for his book The God Makers. These VHS tapes are a must for every apologetics library and are just as relevant and important as they were when they were recorded back in the 1980's.

To help us meet our end-of-the-year goal (we're still about $3,000 short) would you consider investing a gift of $100 or more to the ministry?

The first 14 folks that do so will receive one of these Walter Martin VHS classics and also our CD album, "The Best of Eric Barger vol. 1" which includes a variety of ten of my full length seminar messages.

To donate and receive this offer please click here then type the word "Martin" in the "purpose" box during the order process. You may use a PayPal account or your debit or credit card to donate.

I really appreciate your consideration of a gift to help us meet our goal. Obviously supply is limited and the link will become inactive when the final Walter Martin VHS tape is gone so please act now.

Thanks for helping me reach all we can with the Gospel in 2014!

New Evangelicalism: The New World Order
by Paul Smith

Like cascading dominoes, the intentional departure from believing the Bible is inerrant has plunged the church of the 21st century down the treacherous slippery slope of accommodation and compromise.


* Why have so many evangelicals identified themselves as new evangelicals?

* What is the relationship between Fuller Seminary, the Purpose Driven Church, and the Emergent Church Movement?

* How is the Emergent Church push for globalization harmonizing with the new world order in these prophetic last days?

 

Addressing these and many more questions with riveting case studies coupled with staggering and sobering documentation, the author unfolds the shocking progression of ideas that were birthed in a nest of aberrant church beliefs.

Living on Borrowed Time
  by Dr. David Reagan
 

 

This book answers many questions concerning the second coming of Jesus including fulfilled prophecy, understanding the season we are in and the signs of the times, and perhaps the most convincing sign of the Lord's soon return.

 

A unique feature of the book is a prophecy forum composed of 22 Bible prophecy experts who reply to 11 questions concerning the biblical signs of the times that are supposed to signal the imminent return of Jesus. Over 300 pages!

The Cross in the Shadow of the Crescent
by Dr. Erwin Lutzer

 

Islam is on the rise all over the West, including America. In this compelling new book, bestselling author Erwin Lutzer urges Christians to see this as both an opportunity to share the gospel and a reason for concern.
 
 We have now reached a tipping point--the spread of Islam is rapidly altering the way we live. These changes are cause for alarm, for they endanger our freedoms of speech and religion.

Contending for the Faith!

Many thanks for the overflow of encouraging letters on my recent article and video clip "Is hyp
er-critical name-calling REALLY Contending for the Faith?"

I am currently working on a follow-up piece that will include more information on the topic and some of the responses I've received concerning the tone of discernment today.

 
By the way, I appreciate all input - even if its cranky (as long as writers are respectful)!

Evolution: True Science Fiction (January 11, 2014)
In the first segment Jan Markell answers her critics. Then Ray Comfort joins Jan and Eric Barger to talk about the ravages of evolution today. Sound bytes of Ray's film, "Evolution vs. God", are played that are stunning. Evolutionists clearly illustrate that they cannot defend their "faith" and prove the theory to be true science fiction. As more people with a Godless agenda try to seize power everywhere, Comfort allows us to see that they are poor apologists and even worse "scientists." Yet this is the new "religion" of secular humanism. If there is no God, then any kind of depraved behavior can be excused as we came from pond scum. Get a view of why society is imploding. Buy the Comfort DVD for as little as $1 at www.livingwaters.com. You can view the DVD there as well.
