But I Say Unto You (John Reisinger)
$9.50$11.95
A study of the Sermon on the Mount which takes Jesus at His word. He is our authority and lawgiver. He is our standard in the Kingdom of God.
Did Jesus change anything from the Law of Moses with His so-called Sermon on the Mount or was He correcting rabbinical errors that had crept in along the way?
This book argues persuasively that Jesus was not simply rubber-stamping the great hero of the Old Covenant, but was actually presenting Himself as the new and superior lawgiver just as He is the new and superior priest to Aaron. Getting this right (or wrong) has significant implications for how one reads the Bible and, perhaps even more importantly, what standard one uses in his or her pursuit of righteousness. Jesus, not Moses, is our Lord. We must listen to Him.

Abraham’s Four Seeds (John Reisinger)
$9.25Abraham’s Four Seeds is a biblical examination of the presuppositions of Covenant Theology and Dispensationalism. Pastor, evangelist, and author John G. Reisinger demonstrates how a correct understanding of Abraham’s seeds is key to harmonizing Scripture. He writes:
The following statement, if correctly understood, will help to clear up a lot of confusion: The nation of Israel was not the ‘Body of Christ,’ even though the Body of Christ is indeed the true ‘Israel of God.’Covenant Theology cannot accept the first part of that statement and Dispensationalism cannot accept the second part. The basic presuppositions of Covenant Theology make it mandatory that Israel be the church and be under the same covenant as the church, and the one thing a Dispensationalist must maintain is the church’s present and future distinction from Israel which makes it mandatory that Israel and the church can never be under the same covenant or inherit the same blessings. What is essential to one system is anathema to the other system.
