Here’s your list of rare… little known…

"Highly Recommended, Very Hard To Discover, Dirt-Cheap (Mostly) Reformed Calvinist Protestant Christian Books That... IF Read... Are Guaranteed To Prove Themselves To Be A Great Blessing: To You... Your Family... Your Country... and Just About Everyone Else You Know." (Including... by His grace... many of the people whom our Triune JEHOVAH sovereignly... providentially... places you in contact with!)

Now, unless you have already been judicially blinded by God (a really scary thought, but thankfully not likely since you are reading this page), these books are guaranteed to both expand your intellect and strengthen your mind.

They will also help you to begin a new... fascinating... lifelong journey of replacing mind-blighting liberal poison with supernaturally revealed Biblical doctrine - your ONLY path to sanity... and eternal life in Heaven.

In other words, you will no longer be one of the blind being led by the blind (see Matthew 15:13-14).

No. Instead, by JEHOVAH's sovereign grace and predestinating election... which God actually chose you to receive before the world was made or time began (see Deuteronomy 7: 7-8 & Ephesians 1: 4-6)... you will begin to depart... and escape from... the soul-damning delusions of Satan's world kingdom (see Colossians 1:12-14 & 2nd Thessalonians 2:9-12).

Moreover, these books will also enhance and increase your... Wisdom Quotient (W.Q.), which, by the way, is something even more valuable (far more) than having a high I.Q.

"The FEAR of the LORD is the BEGINNING of KNOWLEDGE: but FOOLS despise wisdom and instruction."

Proverbs 1: 7

For example, read any one of these books... get a good handle on what it is teaching you... and NO college professor... "priest"... "rabbi" "imam"... shrink... totalitarian statist pagan philosopher (such as Socrates or Aristotle)... touchy-feely liberal "Protestant" she-minister... or JEHOVAH-hating Marxist-Socialist-Pied-Piper (of Hell) -politician... will be able to pull the wool over your eyes... indoctrinate or influence your mind with worthless, soul-damning liberal trash... or win you over to how the Devil himself wants you to think... (as Satan fattens you up with ignorance and lust and sin for The Big Kill down in Hell.)

Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to them, We are not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God. Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me; for I proceed and came forth from God; neither came I of myself, but He sent me... Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. HE WAS A MURDERER FROM THE BEGINNING, and abode not in truth, BECAUSE THERE IS NO TRUTH IN HIM. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own; FOR HE IS A LIAR, and the father of it."

John 8: 41-44


And no, you won't find these gold nuggets and precious gems of Wisdom, Knowledge and Truth listed in any of the liberal arts curriculum at previously Protestant Christian Harvard... Yale... Princeton... Dartmouth... Oxford... Cambridge... or 99.97% of today's other "elite" institutions of so-called "higher learning" -- colleges and universities that have been flat-out ruined by the plagues and curse of anti-Christian liberalism and secular humanism.

(And please don't ever forget one of the central themes of this site - namely, that, from Genesis to Revelation, THE WHOLE BIBLE IS CHRISTIANITY! Salvation (from sin and eternity in Hell) has ever and ONLY been possible through faith in the BLOOD ATONEMENT and IMPUTED RIGHTEOUSNESS of Israel's Messiah, the Lord Jesus Christ. You ignore that supernaturally revealed fact at your peril.)

WARNING: Take heed, my friend. If you have any doubts about what I just said... or that maybe I'm a candidate for the nuthouse... you'd better take a minute and take a long hard look at the passages from JEHOVAH's pure, Holy Spirit-inspired Word, above and to your right. And remember, it's YOUR immortal soul that's at stake.

Once you've done that... check out some of the rock-solid book recommendations below.

Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary, the devil, like a roaring lion walketh about, seeking whom he may devour."

1st Peter 5:8

Dear Intrepid Truth Seeker, 

I realize I’ve made some fairly bold claims regarding the ability of the content of these books to have a profound impact on your way of thinking and life. (Notice: The thinking precedes living the life.) 

But please hear me out, for I stand by what I said. Let me explain. 

You see, most of these books were written by men whose life’s work was plumbing the depths of Holy Writ. Men whose theology was accurate and sound because it was founded on the collective, unified teachings and doctrinal truths set forth in the Westminster Confession of Faith… the Heidelberg Catechism… the Canons of Dort… the Belgic Confession… or other rock-solid, classic Protestant creeds of the Christian faith. In other words… men who were Calvinists to the core!

(Not all of them, for there will be listed certain secular history books written from a Christian’s perspective. I have no way of knowing whether the writers were dyed-in-the-wool Calvinists or not.) 

In most instances, the comments on my recommendations will be brief. What I will do is include excerpts or quotes from the books themselves. That way you can get a taste of the writer’s style.

I mentioned in the above headline that most of these books can be gotten for ‘dirt cheap’. When I say dirt cheap, I mean like less than the price of a cup of coffee at Starbucks.    

Take, for example, Calvin’s classic Institutes of the Christian Religion. There has probably never been a better expositor of God’s pure Word than the great John Calvin. 

As an aside, I have actually met people from Switzerland who have never even heard of John Calvin – this, the man one German historian said became one of the  major architects of Western Civilization and the virtual founder of America”. These people were sad, even tragic, examples of the products of “Western Civilization’s” anti-Christian, secular humanist government school systems. 

Which is just one of many reasons why all state-run government school systems must be eliminated and replaced by private Protestant schools founded upon rock-solid Calvinist creeds. 

The government school buildings can be sold off to private developers or turned into homeless shelters. With the national debt approaching TWENTY-FOUR TRILLION — the satanic fruit of liberalism and the product of anti-Christian, modern American-style Marxist Socialism — countless numbers of government “educated” children are likely soon going to need them. (PROGRAMMED is probably a better word than educated for understanding what is happening to young people today in America’s government schools.)

And the sooner the better. The future survival of America as a Free Republic actually depends upon this. As a first step, the U.S. Department of Education… an annual FIFTY BILLION DOLLAR LIBERAL BOONDOGGLE… needs to be shut down. Individual sovereign States need to become Protestant Christian Republics by re-asserting their 10th Amendment rights and by rejecting Satanic, soul-damning anti-Christian secular humanism (i.e., America’s new religion of LIBERALISM).  

The typically Marxist Socialist teachers’ unions’ members won’t like this one bit (in fact, they’ll all likely scream bloody murder, which is typical of most Christ-hating secular humanists), but the eternal destiny of your children’s souls should be worth a LOT more to you than their government-financed earthly comforts, right? Well, I would hope so.

In a Calvinist Protestant private school, JEHOVAH’s Ten Commandments (which were WRITTEN BY THE FINGER OF GOD and contained in the Ark of the Covenant – see Exodus 31:18 & 1st Kings 8:9) would be prominently displayed. The Westminster and Heidelberg Catechisms would be routinely studied. 

Thankfully, many God-fearing Bible-believing Protestant Christian parents have taken it upon themselves to home school their children. 

By the way, if you are, in fact, a parent, make sure you are routinely teaching your children the Heidelberg and Westminster Catechisms each and every Sunday Lord’s Day Sabbath. For if you fail to teach them the truths of God’s pure Word the Bible — King James Version best — then Satan and his armies of Christ-hating secular humanist minions, will. Hell will likely then become their eternal destiny. Their blood, in part, will be on your hands. Yes, there really is that much at stake. 

My friend, you had better wake up to this simple life truth. If you think that I am overstating the seriousness of the case that I’m trying to make to you for regular parental catechismal training, please read Paul’s words in Acts 20: 24-28. For if your children do not grow up to become genuine… blood-bought… born again justified-by-faith-alone-Bible-believing-Christians — remember, THE WHOLE BIBLE IS CHRISTIANITY — then… ultimately… their lives will turn out to be a BIG WASTE… no matter how great their worldly accomplishments may have been. 

In God’s sight, their ONLY legacy will be a MOUNTAIN OF SIN that was never BLOTTED OUT… and PUT AWAY… by THE BLOOD ATONEMENT of Israel’s Messiah… the Lord Jesus Christ. 

Never forget: The old tried and true Westminster Catechism summarized for us the ultimate meaning of life a long time ago. 

Question 1. What is man’s chief end? 

Answer: Man’s chief end is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever. 

Now back to what I was saying…

In hard book format, Calvin’s Institutes might run close to 500 pages. And it could run you as high as $50, depending on the quality of the book and binding. But, in Amazon’s Kindle format, you can get this theological masterpiece for a pittance99 cents!

Read Calvin’s Institutes and you’ll know more about the personality and attributes of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit — the eternal I AM and Ruler of our universe and Judge of all mankind — than probably 99% of all college professors. (You will also know more — MUCH MORE! — than America’s typical, deficit-spending Marxist-socialist politicians. Today, most of America’s politicians are under the spell… influence and control… of TWO “gods”: first, the mind-blinding “god” of this world, Satan himself; second, the false, socialist, totalitarian “god” of Big Government.  Both “gods” are false. And believing and trusting in them, rather than in our great… almighty… Triune JEHOVAH – FATHER, SON, HOLY SPIRIT – will… in the process of time… only damn your soul and lead you down to the dark, lonely, eternal pits of Hell.)

My friend, if you are unfamiliar with these Calvinist Protestant Christian classics, you are about to embark upon the most exciting, soul-stirring and mind-expanding journey you have ever begun. In fact, if you are a genuine Truth Seeker, I can almost guarantee it: Your discoveries will be both endless and breathtaking!

Your friend, 

Chris

P.S. #1: This page was only added to the site sometime during the first week of 2020. So the list, as of now, is scant. However, I’ll try to add a couple (or more) of Calvinist Protestant Christian classics each month. 

P.S. #2. Right off the bat, here is a priceless gem of an audio book by the late great Charles Spurgeon – the man I think of as being the Shakespeare of Protestantism. (Start studying his sermons and you’ll know what I mean. True, he was wrong on infant baptism. But, this does not diminish the fact that Charles Spurgeon was a SPIRITUAL GIANT.) This audio book is a simple and loving exposition of the Love and Grace that JEHOVAH offers to all fallen sinners (that’s you and me), which is only made possible through faith in the BLOOD ATONEMENT of the Father’s only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. It’s called All of Grace.

P.S. #3: One final word. If God the Holy Spirit has graciously begun to bring you under the conviction and realization that you are indeed a lost and condemned sinner in desperate need of THE ATONING BLOOD of the Savior, the first thing I would recommend (after, that is, believing in, and placing your faith and trust in Christ the Messiah as He is revealed in the 66 books of the Scriptures) is that you start keeping the Sunday Christian Sabbath holy (JEHOVAH’s 4th Commandment). STOP watching football games and golf tournaments and whatnot. Instead, seek out and unite yourself and your family with a faithful, evangelical Calvinist Protestant church — preferably one that Holds to the Westminster Confession of Faith or the Heidelberg Catechism. Since such Calvinist churches (especially ones that engage in local evangelism to lost, Hell-bound sinners) are now as rare as hen’s teeth, your best bet then is to start one of your own. And if you do, just make darn sure that it holds to exclusive Psalmody… and that no poisonous Popish “holidays” (un-Biblical, pagan “holy days” such as “Christmas”… “Easter”… and “Lent”) are allowed to infiltrate the congregation. 

P.S. #4: One more final, final word. As magnificent and enlightening as these books are, keep in mind that there is NO SUBSTITUTE FOR DAILY BIBLE READING. Go online and get yourself a GIANT PRINT (with tabs) King James Bible, and then… if necessary… force yourself to read 3 chapters daily. (You should probably start with the Gospel of John.) In time, as you put into practice this discipline, you won’t want to start another day without first having done so. Also, because most Americans today are the products of the Christ-hating government schools… they are… therefore… spiritually speaking… as blind as bats and as deaf as adders. That might be you. Listen: the Bible can often be a very hard book to understand. Therefore, you will need to put in place a rock-solid theological foundation to accompany your daily Bible reading. Once that is in place, only then will you begin to understand the breathtaking magnificence of JEHOVAH’s Holy Spirit-inspired revelations, found ONLY in Holy Writ. (But please don’t wait to start your program of daily Scripture reading. Start right away.) So… to put that foundation in place… what you FIRST need to do is gain a good understanding of The Westminster Confession of Faith, Protestantism’s greatest and most comprehensive creed, which has clear and concise summaries of the most important doctrines of the Bible. So here’s how you can begin to put in place that rock solid foundation you’ll need for better understanding the truths of God’s Word the Bible (just click the links):

Westminster Confession of Faith Resource #1. First, scroll down to Collection 10… and then… separately download each one of the FREE audio chapters of Dr. Gordon Clark’s 12-hour exposition of the Westminster Confession of Faith. And by the way… just so you know… the late great Dr. Gordon was a THEOLOGICAL GENIUS. In fact, the late great Dr. John Robbins once wrote that he considered Gordon Clark to be Western Civilization’s greatest Christian intellect and mind since John Calvin, which is saying a LOT. Somewhere in the future, I’d like to do a book review of one of Dr. Clark’s signature books, Predestination, which PROVES that, in God’s universe, there is no such thing as luck, chance, or free will. Yes, that every event in time and space has been (and is now) predetermined and being controlled by the invisible, omnipotent, sovereign hand of JEHOVAH – God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit. 

Westminster Confession of Faith Resource #2. This is the great G.I. Williamson’s magnificent commentary on the Westminster Confession of Faith. G.I. Williamson was a Presbyterian minister who faithfully held to JEHOVAH’s Regulative Principle of Worship, meaning, in part, that only JEHOVAH’s Psalter was used to sing songs of praise during Sunday Sabbath worship services, which is exactly how it should be. 

The Heidelberg Catechism – Calvinist Reformed Resource #3. This is the great G.I. Williamson’s magnificent commentary on the Heidelberg Catechism, which, while not quite as thorough and comprehensive as the WCF, nonetheless has been treasured for hundreds of years for its straightforward simplicity and soul-stirring sublimity. A must-have in any family’s household Christian library! (Suggestion: At dinnertime, while at the dinner table, thoughtfully and seriously read and answer one or two questions each night to your children. Eventually… they should be able to recite the answers verbatim. Before you know it, you’ll be making major progress, while helping to protect them from Satan and sin and the evil influences of pagan children.) Listen: G.I’s exposition of Catechism questions and answers No. 31 & 32 are so insightful and revealing, just reading that alone easily makes this book worth one hundred times whatever it is you have to pay. (I don’t think it is available in Kindle.) Let the late great G.I. Williamson help you to properly educate yourself and your children in the one, true, ONLY soul-saving religion, revealed in the 66 Books of JEHOVAH’s Holy Spirit-inspired Word (King James Version best), the Bible.  

A Timely Sermon For All of Fallen, Sin-Cursed Mankind...

The following sermon is an exposition of questions 1 & 2 of the famous Reformed Heidelberg Catechism, first published in 1563. 

So… just what is your only comfort in life and death? If you’re a thinking man, this is… absolutely… THE most important question you will ever ask yourself. The Catechism forces you to ask this question. It pries open the gateway to your mind so that the Light of God’s pure Truth might come in. 

And this is a question you can’t afford to get wrong. The give-me-life-or-death answer may be found to your right, as well as in the contents of this superb, doctrinally solid, EYE-OPENING sermon. 

This sermon was delivered on Sunday Sabbath Lord’s Day July 31st, 2011, and preached by Pastor Joel Beeke, President of Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The sermon is entitled Our Only Life and Death Comfort. After giving this sermon a good hearing, why not text out the sermon’s link to friends and loved-ones alike? You too need to become an evangelist for God’s Gospel of Grace to fallen, sin-cursed, Hell-bound sinners (sinners like you and me).

Question 1. What is your only comfort in life and death?

Answer: That I, with body and soul, both in life and death, am not my own, but belong unto my faithful Savior Jesus Christ; who with His precious blood hath fully satisfied for all my sins, and delivered me from the power of the devil; and so preserves me that without the will of my heavenly father not a hair can fall from my head; yea, that all things must be subservient to my salvation, wherefore by His Holy Spirit He also assures me of eternal life, and makes me heartily willing and ready, henceforth, to live unto Him.

Book Recommendation #1: Calvin's Institutes.

This comprehensive Protestant Christian classic is available for the grand sum of 99 cents at Amazon Kindle. Think of the contents of this book as being a ten-thousand-ton wrecking ball whistling through the skies at 500 M.P.H. and bearing down on every philosophy, psychology and humanities department on almost every college campus in the United States and abroad. Question: Why would you want to blow four or five thousand bucks (meaning, your parent’s hard-earned money) on a philosophy or psychology course at some fancy Ivy League college or university when you can discover, and get, all the philosophy and psychology you will ever need by reading this book? Calvin’s Institutes will give you extraordinary insights into mankind’s fallen condition and what you must do to become right with the Creator of the universe (the Lord Jesus Christ) and the Great Judge of your immortal soul. Remember: Either Heaven or Hell MUST be your ultimate eternal destiny. (There is no such thing as “annihilation” or  “reincarnation” and absolutely NO SUCH PLACE AS PURGATORY – which is one of but DOZENS of SHAMEFUL, LETHAL LIES peddled by the “Pope” and Roman Catholicism.)

Recommendation #2: The Gospel of John, By A.W. Pink.

This book is a MUST for any man or woman who wants to lay claim to a title to which few people today ever attain: Genuine Lifelong Truth Seeker.  But, it’s a title to which you should want to aspire, for the consequences of not seeking out and laying hold of (and also putting into effect) the supernaturally revealed Truths of Holy Writ will be grievous in this life… and terrifying in the life to come.  Let us note the words spoken by the Lord Jesus Himself to the Nicodemus, the Pharisee who came to visit Christ at night.  “And THIS IS THE CONDEMNATION, that LIGHT has come into the world, AND MEN LOVED DARKNESS rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone that doeth evil hateth the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.” John 3: 19-21 (Emphasis added.) My friend, you are only a Truth Seeker to the extent you both want, and are willing, to “doeth” the Truth.

     One of the great central truths of God’s Word the Bible is that no man can enter into Heaven apart from faith in the deity and BLOOD ATONEMENT of the Lord Jesus Christ. (Such FAITH must be founded upon KNOWLEDGE.) It is the Gospel of John, perhaps more than any other book of the Bible (with the possible exception of Hebrews), that most clearly sets forth the Biblical doctrine that Jesus Christ is the Great I AM – the eternally begotten God the Son. And this, the deity of the Messiah Jesus Christ, is the central expository theme of A.W. Pink’s book, The Gospel of John. Read this book and you will be amazed at the astounding insights gleaned by this renown, lifelong expositor of Scripture. Plus, the price is better than good: 99 cents! 

For what you’re going to get, this book is more than a steal — it is a priceless, precious gift to your mind and soul. (According to the late great Dr. Gordon Clark, they are one and the same.) And this book just might help you to forge, within the confines of your own mind, the Keys of Knowledge and Faith that will unlock Heaven’s Gate for you… and maybe even members of your family, too! That’s a pretty big possibility for 99 cents, don’t you think? Happy Sunday Sabbath reading!

Recommendation #3: The Institutes of Biblical Law. Rousas John Rushdoony.

Let’s face it. The world we now live in is going to Hell in a hand basket. Actually, when you think about it, forget about the hand basket. The world is just plain going to Hell. Not only in Europe, where the JEHOVAH-hating Mohammedans are starting to take over, but right here in America, too, where crime is ever increasingly on the rise… where women are raped with impunity (rather than being shot or hung)… where infanticide (the brutal murder of babies in the womb) is now thought by the wicked, degenerate legal eagle “geniuses” on the country’s so-called U.S. “Supreme” Court to be a “choice”… and where poor… deluded… Hell-bound homosexuals now have a constitutional “right” to get “married”, in clear and perilous defiance of JEHOVAH’s Word. Is it any wonder WHY America is now under the wrath and curse of God? 

(By the way, if you do know someone who is a homosexual, you’d better have the GUTS to tell him… straight up… and… of course, in a kind and loving manner… that if he doesn’t BELIEVE IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST… and then… by God’s grace… REPENT of ALL his sins… then Hell MUST become his ETERNAL DESTINY. And listen: when it comes to the eternal destiny of your friend’s soul, don’t even think about being “politically correct.” For if you really care about him, you had better tell him the truth. JEHOVAH’s Gospel of Grace is for all men… and… if simply received and simply believed… will save even THE WORST of sinners. Sinners like you… and sinners like me.) 

America has also become the land where convicted murderers are typically given jail time, rather than being executed (quickly), as God’s Word — the 66 books of the Bible — demands and commands. Such are the times in which we in so-called Western “Civilization” now live.  Times in which the fallen, thoroughly corrupt High Priests of the religion of secular humanism rule — men and women who foolishly… stupidly… INSANELY… think they’re smarter… and wiser… than the One, True, Triune JEHOVAH — the Creator of our world and His vast Universe containing BILLIONS of galaxies and TRILLIONS of stars, all made within the span of SIX, LITERAL, 24-HOUR DAYS, as God’s pure, Holy Spirit-inspired Word (King James Version best) informs us.   

Click this image to get this theological masterpiece that will teach you the real meanings and implications of each one of JEHOVAH's Ten Commandments.

Now, about this book. First of all, it’s beefy. In hardcover format, it runs to over 800 pages. And what you’re going to get are amazing, in-depth insights into each one of JEHOVAH’s Ten Commandments, written from a Calvinist Protestant Christian perspective (mostly), with plenty of additional commentary from other writers, both Jew and Gentile alike. I can’t say that I entirely agree with everything Mr. Rushdoony writes. For example, I find it a little annoying that he refers to the Holy Spirit-inspired Apostles Peter and Paul and John as “St. Peter”, “St. Paul”, and “St. John”. Scripture clearly teaches that all believers in Jesus Christ the Messiah become saints because of grace. That means the thief on the cross was, and is, a saint, in the same way that God’s mighty Apostle Paul was a saint. And… in the same way that Noah and Abraham and Moses and Joshua and Gideon and David and Elijah and Daniel… and Sarah and Hannah and Rahab and Naomi and Ruth and Abigail and Esther… and millions of other, innumerable, faithful covenant-keeping Jews were saints in Old Testament times. A saint becomes a saint on the basis of JEHOVAH’s ELECTION and GRACE and JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH IN THE BLOOD SACRIFICE AND ATONEMENT OF CHRIST ALONE — and NOT because of what a particular “saint” may go on to do — no matter how prolific his work for God’s Kingdom might be. SALVATION (from sin and eternal damnation in Hell) IS ALL OF GRACE!

(We would all do well to memorize… and brand it upon our brains… the answer to Westminster Shorter Catechism Question no. 33: What is justification? Answer: Justification is an act of God’s free grace, wherein he pardoneth all our sins, and accepteth us as righteous in his sight, only for the righteousness of Christ imputed to us, and received by faith alone.) 

 

 

The rationale of idolatry is quite logical. As one writer has pointed out, with reference to Hindu idols, the purpose of the idols is to convey abstract concepts to the simple mind. The god depicted with many hands symbolizes thereby the omnipotence of the supreme being, and the many-eyed god sets forth omniscience, and so on. This is an intelligent and logical thesis, but it is also totally wrong. It is forbidden by God and therefore dishonors Him and thus receives no blessing. It has also been productive of social decadence and personal depravity. Wherever man begins by establishing his own approach to God, he ends up by establishing his own will, his own lusts, and finally himself as God. But the initiative belongs entirely to God, and therefore the only lawful approach to God is on His terms entirely and by His grace.

- Rousas John Rushdoony

Another thing that bothers me is that Mr. Rushdoony occasionally cites Roman Catholics to bolster some point or argument he is trying to make.  Personally, knowing what I do about Roman Catholicism (and how its teachings radically clash with the 66 Holy Spirit-inspired books of Scripture – King James Version best), the last thing we should want to do is give credit to Roman Catholic theologians — the poor, deluded ministers of Anti-Christ — for anything.

That great modern-day Calvinist preacher (the snarling, brawling, explosive punching “Jack Dempsey” of today’s Calvinist Protestant preachers… he strikes me as being a kind of modern-day Elijah), Brian Schwertley, says that Mr. Rushdoony’s exegesis of the 4th Commandment is dead wrong. And if what Mr. Rushdoony writes about the Christian Sabbath clashes with the clear teachings of the Westminster Confession of Faith (to get, and download, Dr. Gordon Clark’s FREE 12-hr. MP3 audio book exposition of Protestantism’s greatest and most comprehensive creed,  just click the link and scroll down to Collection 10) … then yes, Pastor Brian is undoubtedly right. 

 

In brief, religion, true religion, is not a matter of voluntary choice which is without repercussions. It is required by God, and failure to meet His requirements leads to His judgment. To assume that men are free to worship or not to worship without radical consequence for society is to negate the meaning of biblical faith. THE LIFE OF A SOCIETY IS ITS RELIGION, AND IF THAT RELIGION BE FALSE, THEN THE SOCIETY IS HEADED FOR DEATH.

- Rousas John Rushdoony, from his book, The Institutes of Biblical Law.

 

But, these things having been said, Rousas John Rushdoony’s book is an absolute masterpiece. There is no good reason to throw out the baby with the bathwater. In fact, it would be a serious mistake to do so. 

If you happen to be a young person who is trying to figure out for himself (or herself) how our Triune JEHOVAH views His world… and the high standards to which we should all aspire to think and live (including civil magistrates of every stripe), then THIS is a book you will want to carefully read and study. 

In fact, I would venture to say that, should you be thinking about going to college, there’s really no need to. Not, at least, if your purpose of going there would be to obtain a degree in psychology or philosophy or in “the humanities”. Neither Socrates, nor Plato, nor Aristotle, nor Sigmund Freud and Maslow… put together… can collectively hold a candle to R.J. Rushdoony.

This Kindle book will set you back ten bucks. But listen. You’ll probably get ten thousand times more value from this book than you would from getting a degree in philosophy or psychology from any of today’s Academic Temples of Secular Humanism… which… if you “buy into” the liberalism they’re selling, will only have turned out to have been forgers of lies and temples of doom for your own immortal soul. 

Happy Sunday Sabbath reading!  

BONUS: Here’s an insightful lecture by Mr. Rushdoony on The Role of Parents in Their Children’s Education. In this free lecture (the sixth one down, by one of America’s most brilliant minds of the last one hundred years), Rushdoony identifies some of the most important keys for successfully educating young people. 

 

Fourth, it is obvious that the sacrifices, as distinct from the offerings, typified Christ, the sinless and perfect man, who, in perfect devotion to God, kept the law fully. Christ, as the sinless man, was the acceptable sacrifice in atonement for the sins of His elect, who are redeemed by His atoning blood. Hence, to represent Christ, the offered animal had to be without blemish. Fifth, the sacrifices were required of all believers as their bond of peace and unity with God. THOSE NOT COVERED BY THE SACRIFICE OF CHRIST ARE UNDER THE SENTENCE OF DEATH.

- Rousas John Rushdoony, from his book, The Institutes of Biblical Law.

Recommendation #4: Auricular Confessions and Popish Nunneries, by William Hogan

This is truly a shocking book. Within its pages, the author, William Hogan, a former Roman “priest” himself who went on to become a staunch American patriot and Protestant Christian, chronicles a number of horrid incidents he either witnessed himself or cites from reliable historical sources.  I’ve used the phrase horrid to describe some of the incidents revealed in this book, but other synonyms come to mind: satanic… demonic… devilish… monstrous… sinister… diabolical… depraved… twisted… murderous. 

     And no wonder! God’s Words foretold the coming of the “Pope”, the Anti-Christ, in 1st Timothy 4: 1-3. Now, pay careful attention to what the Holy Spirit-inspired Apostle Paul wrote: “Now the Spirit speaketh expressly that, in the latter times, some shall depart from the faith, GIVING HEED TO SEDUCING SPIRITS, AND DOCTRINES OF DEMONS, Speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their conscious seared with a hot iron, FORBIDDING TO MARRY, and COMMANDING TO ABSTAIN FROM MEATS, which God hath created to to be received with thanksgiving by them who believe and know the truth.”

Click this image to get your book.

    Perhaps you’re wondering, what is the point of including this book among your recommended books list? Well, I will tell you. For one thing, it is important for people to know — especially our beloved Jewish friends (whom we are seeking to win over to Christ by every reasonable argument we can muster) — that Roman Catholicism is NOT Christianity. In fact, that it never has been, nor ever could be.  And if that means that we must shine the light of historical facts and truth upon the wicked, devilish misdeeds of much of the Popish clergy, then so be it. (Believe me, this book will do exactly that.) 

     But there are other good reasons as well. For example, If you who are reading this are yourself a Roman Catholic, then I must warn you: YOU ARE IN A VERY BAD PLACE. For if you continue on in your Roman Catholic idolatry… and in holding onto a myriad number of dangerous beliefs that absolutely contradict Scripture — DOCTRINES OF DEMONS — then you will one day discover, to your horror, that there is no such place as “Purgatory” — that you have been lied to all your life

(But at that point, it’ll be too late. Listen: If you believe and adhere to doctrines of demons, doesn’t it only stand to reason that you will end up where Satan and his demons are going to go on Judgment Day?)  

     But even if you are not a Roman Catholic, you would be well-served to plunk down the $4 it’ll cost you to get this book. For one thing, it will provide you with some insights as to why America… and Europe too… have now become sinking ships. One of the main reasons WHY we are in the midst of the collapse of Western Civilization is simple: Popery and Rampant Roman Catholicism! 

     You see, America and most of Europe used to be mainly Protestant, but no more. And now, with the illegal invasion of millions of Roman Catholics from South America… and with most of them on the fast track for obtaining voting rights (can you believe it?)… America is now destined to become a Godless… secular humanist totalitarian socialist nation. (We’re likely only a couple of election cycles away from a complete national collapse.) True God-fearing salt-of-the-earth Protestants are now but a tiny minority among America’s previously Protestant but now almost completely secularized population.

     This downward trend of the debilitating influence of Popery has already occurred in most of Europe, and it is now only a matter of time before the JEHOVAH-hating Mohammedans dominate what were previously Protestant nations.  Maybe you think that what I am saying is a bit of a stretch. But it is not. Roman Catholicism eventually destroys nearly everything it touches, including:  individuals… families… whole nations. Read this book and decide for yourself whether what I am saying is true or false. 

     One thing is for certain. You will never come across a book like this in the curriculum of any of today’s much vaunted, secular humanist temples of “higher education”. 

     Finally, I would urge you to read the excerpt below for a quick insight into the “behind-the-scenes” horror show that has always characterized Satan’s masterpiece of deception… his FATAL DEATHTRAP for the lost souls of countless millions of deluded people who fail to look to Christ ALONE for the salvation of their souls (don’t you be one of them)… Roman Catholicism.

And what is the object of those hospitals? It is chiefly to provide for the illicit offspring of priests and nuns, and such other unmarried females as the priests can seduce through the confessional. But it will be said, there are no hospitals attached to nunneries in this country. True, there are not; but I say, of my own knowledge and my own experience through the confessional, that it would be well if there were; there would be fewer abortions, THERE WOULD BE FEWER INFANTS STRANGLED AND MURDERED. It is not generally known to Americans, that the crime of procuring abortion -- a crime which our laws pronounce to be a felony -- is a common every day crime in Popish nunneries. It is not known to Americans -- but let it henceforward be known to them -- that strangling and putting to death, is common in nunneries throughout this country."

William Hogan. Auricular Confession and Popish Nunneries. First Published in 1854

Recommendation #5: Popery, by William Hogan, Esq.

The Kindle version of this insightful book is available for FREE. Worth every penny… and every minute of your time reading. It’s also invaluable for gaining an understanding as to why… and how… America is being destroyed from within. Though this book was first published in 1854, the insights from this book are as relevant today as then. Basically, the main theme of this book is to show how, once it lays down roots, the spreading cancer of Roman Catholicism blights and undermines individuals… families… and ultimately whole nations. It’s FREE, so why not get it now? Just click the image to your right. 

Note: here is a valuable little gem of Wisdom, Knowledge and Truth worth knowing about: My friend, I must be honest with you.  In truth, I don’t much understand JEHOVAH’s Holy Spirit-inspired Book of Revelation, the LAST BOOK of God’s revelation to fallen, sin-cursed mankind, and penned by the fisherman, the Apostle John. The genius John Calvin, for example, didn’t want to attempt a commentary upon it. However, I just recently stumbled upon a blog, by Scott Yonker, which provides some truly amazing insights into how the “Church” of Rome perfectly fits God’s description of her. Most notable is Mr. Yonker’s use of horrific, damning historical proof to further nail down his case that the Pope of Rome… and the institution he represents… is indeed MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH – as revealed in Revelation 17:5 – which is only what faithful Protestants have long claimed. (Probably no book provides better historical proof of the crimes of Rome than J.A. Wylie’s History of Protestantism, simply MUST reading for anyone who fancies himself an historian. A book, by the way, you won’t find listed as part of the required reading list in the curriculum of the History Department at any of the Ivy League schools.) 

Also worth reading is Scott’s About Page. Scott is living proof that you don’t need some fancy college degree to become a highly educated person (educated, that in, about the most important things in life). No. Instead, what you need, first of all, is a good grounding in JEHOVAH’s pure Word, the 66 books of the Bible (King James Version best), best understood and appreciated through the accurate lenses of such monumental Calvinistic Protestant creeds as The Westminster Confession of Faith (1647)… The Second Helvetic Confession (1566)… The Belgic Confession (1561)… The Canons of Dort (1619)… and The Heidelberg Catechism (1563). In other words, let JEHOVAH Himself become your lifelong teacher. Then, once you have discovered your God-given talent, cultivate it. And while you’re inside and out and about cultivating it… working hard at it… use it to glorify God and to diligently make your living by the sweat of your brow. If possible, NEVER accept handouts from America’s new “god” — the false “god” of Big Government. If you’re living your life God’s Way, you won’t have to. My friend, don’t waste precious time. And don’t waste and destroy your life and single God-given talent by getting drunk, frying your brain with Satan’s favorite plant (marijuana), taking ANY kind of mind-altering drugs, or going to parties. (These things can sometimes actually kill you, and definitely help to eternally damn your soul to the dark, lonely pits of Hell.) So go ahead and get to work!

Recommendation #6: The Papacy, by J.A. Wylie

No commentary of mine could begin to do justice to this theological masterpiece… because… what this book actually does is… examine and expose the masterful genius of the theology of Satan.) The Kindle version of this insightful book fully uncovers, explains, and reveals the Satanic, diabolical nature of Roman Catholicism and it’s blighting effect on individuals… families… societies… and… ultimately… entire nations. This book is an absolute MUST read for anyone who has even the slightest interest in European history, and for genuine Truth Seekers who want to understand why Western Civilization is now in its final death throes. Previously Protestant nations are now rotting away from within… to a large extent… because of the spreading, inoperable cancers and debilitating influences of Roman Catholicism. (Today, Roman Catholicism has morphed into becoming a Marxist socialist “gospel” that, if “bought into”… and… believed… will only land you down in Hell. Remember my friend: there is NO SUCH PLACE as “Purgatory”. This world is a stage… you are playing this game of life for keeps… and… the future destiny of YOUR immortal soul does hang in the balance.) The Kindle version of this book will set you back 99 cents, the price of a can of beans at the Dollar Tree. 

     So why not get it now? It is but a small price to pay for a strong dose of accurate, radical, biblical and historical Truth — Truth… penned by a master Presbyterian Calvinist Christian historian and scholar… Truth that’ll help to set you free: FREE from the darkness and ignorance and influence of one of mankind’s greatest murderer of souls (Islam, Communism, Socialism and Secular Humanism are all soul-damning religions that have probably helped to kill more people… and destroyed more souls… than even Roman Catholicism.)  Read this book and you’ll understand why you and your family must avoid Roman Catholicism like the mind-blighting, soul-damning plague it actually is… 

     Well, what do you think? Can you handle it? You can, my friend. Believe me you can. And once you’ve given this book a careful going over, you will know more than any Ivy League student or pipe-smoking college philosophy professor as to why our world has, at least in part, become as wicked and foul as it has. It might also help you to understand the greatness and glory of America’s colonial heritage, which was actually Calvinist Protestant Christian at its core… 

(Little kids in those days all learned their grammar… their world-view… their morality… and their rock-solid Calvinist Protestant Christian theology from:  The New England Primer, which had the mighty Westminster Shorter Catechism anchored within its pages. Today, America’s “conservatives” foolishly worship at the shrine of the U.S. Constitution, woefully ignorant of the fact that America’s charter of liberty and political freedom sprang from the Calvinist Protestant Christian’s world view, with The New England Primer as one of the primary sources for our great Founding Father’s theology. In other words, from the truths and principles derived and deduced from JEHOVAH’s pure, Holy Spirit-inspired Word, the Bible. It is NOT a stretch to say that the U.S. Constitution was the political fruit born from the lessons taught within the pages of The New England Primer. And there is ANOTHER important lesson to be learned and one which America’s secular humanist political “leaders” have seemingly never learned… a lesson that has needlessly cost American families the lives of tens of thousands of its native sons in foolish, wasteful, needless wars. And that is that THE TREE OF LIBERTY ONLY GROWS AND THRIVES ON PROTESTANT CHRISTIAN SOIL.)  

… and there will be other benefits besides, too numerous, I think, to mention. Benefits to you I can’t even think of. 

     Enough. 

   Please just get the book and find out for yourself. And then… after you’ve turned the last page… after you’ve very logically (and sanely) repented of any ideas of constructing a “works” righteousness of your own… take some time to thank our Triune JEHOVAH and King for His amazing grace to fallen, sin-cursed mankind. In other words, GRACE for the likes of you and me!

Recommendation #7: Refuting Rabbinic Objections To Christianity & Messianic Prophecies. By Eitan Bar.

No review of mine can begin to do justice to this book. Listen. This book proves, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that Jesus Christ is Israel’s long-awaited Messiah. And… as you will soon see for yourself… the evidence that Eitan Bar uses to nail down his case is both devastating and irrefutable. 

     This book is MUST reading for every man who thinks of himself as being a Christ-the-Messiah denying Jew. Or… for ANY Jew (or Jewess) who has the courage and determination to question long-held beliefs. Beliefs which, as you will soon find out, are both false and deadly. Look, I used to be in the same boat as you too. An even worse boat. The sinking, stinking ship of Roman Catholicism, which was founded upon, and wrecked (which happened over 1500 years ago), by the rocky shoals of corrupt human traditions, and by ecclesiastical politicians. So don’t get mad. Instead, get smart. And wise up. Both for yourself and your loved ones. Because… if you think you can earn your way into Heaven by being “good”, you are headed down the wrong path. A dangerous path. A soul-damning path. And the reason for this is simple. You see, as God’s pure Word clearly teaches, there will be… and can be… NO FORGIVENESS of your multitudinous sins apart from the BLOOD ATONEMENT of Israel’s PROVEN,  peerless Messiah… the Glory of Israel… the God-Man… the Lord Jesus Christ! My friend, don’t let ANYONE pull the wool over your eyes! Not your rabbi… not your friends and relatives… not your father and mother… not Satan himself. NO ONE! Please listen: The eternal destiny of YOUR immortal soul depends upon whether or not your receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, as well as believing that He is the eternally begotten I AM of both the Old and New Testaments. Read Eitan Bar’s book… and you will have every good and logical reason for doing so! 

And… while you’re at it.. I would like to suggest that you take time to listen to these sermons by Calvinist Protestant minister Brian Schwertley (the “Jack Dempsey” of today’s Reformed/Calvinst preachers):

Recommendation #8: Charlie Coulson The Drummer Boy. By Dr. Max L. Rossvalley

This is the soul-stirring story of the journey of an American patriot, Dr. Max Rossvally, from being an orthodox Jew to coming to saving faith in Israel’s Messiah, the Lord Jesus Christ. (Actually… in truth… to have been an orthodox Jew in Old Testament times meant that you were already, in fact, a Messianic Jew. Something worth thinking about.) This is a free PDF published by Chapel Library. This true short story is as interesting and fun to read as anything by the great American writer, Heratio Alger. Worth downloading and sending out to friends and loved ones alike. (Especially if you are Jewish!) Just click the book cover to your right and either download the PDF… or order hard copies for friends and loved ones. Also, you’ll want to explore Chapel Library’s website, since it is the world’s biggest publisher of faithful Protestant Reformed Calvinist literature.

Attention all Jews who want to understand THE REAL MEANING of Moses' Holy Spirit-inspired Book of Leviticus...

Must Read Recommendation #9: Leviticus - A Commentary, by Scottish Presbyterian Andrew Bonar (1810-1892)

Once upon a time… maybe 30 years ago… I came across a hard cover copy of this book in a used book store. Not long after, I considered it one of the prized possessions of my then growing library. 

But, what happened was, I once met a Jewish man who was in the same field of business as I, and I wound up gifting it to him. 

Because the book was so insightful… and so rich with God’s truth… over the years, I sometimes regretted having giving this rare and precious gem of a book away. 

But, my feeling then was (and still is), that if this beloved Jewish gentleman would only read it, he would no doubt come to saving faith in his Messiah (the Savior of every man, woman and child the world over), the Lord Jesus Christ. 

And what I thought about the prospects of that man coming to believing in Christ by reading this book applies equally to you my friend.

You see, what this book does is greatly magnify the intricate symbolic meanings of each one of the types of BLOOD SACRIFICES that our great Triune JEHOVAH instituted and commanded through Moses God’s earthly mediator soon after He delivered His chosen people the Jews from slavery in Egypt. 

And what this book will ultimately do is show you the critical life or death importance of making sure that ALL his sins have been put away by the blood atonement of Messiah Jesus Christ. 

O.K., enough from me. What I’m now going to do is present to you just a few slivers and choice selections from the book. 

Oh, and by the way, this THEOLOGICAL MASTERPIECE is available for the grand sum of 99 cents. (But, if you can swing it, you might want to pick up a hard cover copy for Sunday Sabbath and nighttime reading.) 

And one more thing: Theologically speaking, reading this book will place you LIGHT YEARS ahead of your local “Temple” rabbi… and even most of today’s evangelical pastors (meaning, the ones who refuse to sing God’s praise with His Holy Spirit-inspired Psalter, and who rarely, if ever, preach sermons from the Old Testament).    

Now, that alone ought to be worth ninety-nine cents, don’t you think? 


This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

- 1st John 1: 5-10

Recommendation #10: Fox's Book of Martyrs Or A History of the Lives, Sufferings and Triumphant Deaths of the Primitive Protestant Martyrs. By John Foxe, first published in 1563.

Introduction To The Book Regarding The International Scourge & Curse of Popery

The object of this work, is to give a brief history of persecution since the first introduction of Christianity, till the present time. In doing this, we have commenced with the martyrdom of Stephen, and following the course of events, have brought the history of persecution down to the year 1830. In all ages, we find that a disposition to persecute for opinion’s sake, has been manifested by wicked men, whatever may have been their opinions or sentiments on religious subjects. The intolerant Jew, and the bigoted pagan, have exhibited no more of a persecuting spirit, than the nominal professor of Christianity, and the infidel and the avowed atheist. It is only when the heart has been renewed and sanctified by divine grace, that men have rightly understood and practiced the true principles of toleration. We do not say that none but real Christians have adopted correct views respecting civil and religious liberty — but we affirm that these views owe their origin entirely to Christianity and its genuine disciples. 

     Though nearly all sects have persecuted their opponents, during a brief season, when men’s passions were highly excited, and true religion had mournfully declined, yet no denomination except the papal hierarchy has adopted as an article of religious belief, and a principle of practical observance, the right to destroy heretics for opinion’s sake. The decrees of councils, and the bulls of popes, issued in conformity with those decrees, place this matter beyond a doubt. Persecution, therefore, and Popery, are inseparably connected; because claiming infallibility, what she has done is right for her to do again; yea, must be done under similar circumstances, or the claims of infallibility given up. There is no escaping this conclusion. It is right, therefore, to charge upon popery, all the persecutions and horrid cruelties which have stained the annals of the papal church during her long and bloody career of darkness and crime. 

Reading Fox's Book of Martyrs will give you insights into not only the depths of wickedness and cruelty endemic to the hearts of all the fallen sons and daughters of Adam, but also the unflinching courage and resolve of untold numbers of Protestant men and women who refused to deny the name of their Lord and Savior and One True Ruler and King -- Messiah Jesus Christ.

Excerpts of Incidents of Martyrdom From the Early Christian Church

Sibinus, bishop of Assisium, refusing to sacrifice to Jupiter, and pushing the idol from him, had his hand cut off by order of the governor of Tuscany. While in prison, he converted the governor and his family, all of whom suffered martydom for the faith. Soon after their execution, Sibinus himself was scourged to death, December A.D. 304.

     Among the many martyred by the order of Galerius, we shall enumerate the most eminent. 

     Amphianus was a gentleman of eminence in Lucia, and a scholar of Eusebius; Julitta, a Lycaonian of royal descent, but more celebrated for her virtues than noble blood. While on the rack, her child was killed before her face. Julitta, of Cappadocia, was a lady of distinguished capacity, great virtue, and uncommon courage. To complete the execution,  Julitta had boiling pitch poured on her feet, her sides torn with hooks,  and received the conclusion of her martyrdom, by being beheaded, April 16, A.D. 305.

     Eustratius, secretary to the governor of Armenia, was thrown into a fiery furnace, for exhorting some Christians who had been apprehended, to persevere in their faith. 

     Nicander and Marcian, two eminent Roman military officers, were apprehended on account of their faith. As they were both men of great abilities in their profession, the utmost means were used to induce them to renounce Christianity: but these endeavors being found ineffectual, they were beheaded. 

In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain? For, lo, the wicked bend their bow, they make ready their arrow upon the string, that they may privily shoot at the upright in heart. If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do? The Lord is in his holy temple, the Lord's throne is in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men. The Lord trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth. Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and a horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup. For the righteous Lord loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright."

Psalm 11
