What is Calvinism and why should it make any difference to the way we live the Christian life? Albert N. Martin s answer is that true Calvinism involves a sight of the majesty of God . The Practical Implications of Calvinism is much more than an appeal for Calvinism; in effect it is an impassioned plea for authentic Christianity.

Bad Record and a Bad Heart

Good pastors pray for the Holy Spirit's help in preparing biblical sermons that will adequately feed God s sheep. They also hope for the Spirit s work in the hearts of the hearers so that they effectively receive the preached Word. But are these the only ways that preachers must depend on the Spirit in their preaching? In this book, Albert N. Martin reminds gospel ministers of their need to rely on the Holy Spirit as they proclaim God s Word. He explains the necessity of the agency and operations of the Holy Spirit, describes its specific manifestations, and discusses ways it is restrained or diminished. Here is a prophetic call to reliance on God in the very act of proclaiming His Word.

The fear of God is an important theme in the Bible, yet many Christians today overlook it or treat it carelessly. Fearing God is the soul of godliness, and those who claim to love God should desire to understand what it means to fear Him. The Forgotten Fear revisits this important topic. Author Al Martin first establishes the theme of the fear of God in both the Old and New Testaments, and then he defines what fearing God means. Finally, he addresses the practical implications of fearing God, showing its expression in the lives of Abraham and Joseph and providing instruction for believers today to maintain their fear of God and even increase it.
 Table of Contents: 1. Predominance of the Fear of God in Biblical Thought 2. Definition of the Fear of God 3. Ingredients of the Fear of God 4. Source of the Fear of God 5. Relationship of the Fear of God to Our Conduct 6. How to Maintain and Increase the Fear of God 7. A Final Word to the Reader

The Forgotten Fear: Where Have All the God Fearers Gone?

El propósito de esta publicación es enfocar nuestro pensamiento en asuntos que conciernan particularmente a la esposa del pastor. Estos tres mensajes fueron pronunciados originalmente en la Conferencia para Esposas de Pastores en la iglesia Providence Baptist Church, Lecanto (Florida), en enero de 2010. Palabras de aliento para esposas de pastores consiste en exhortaciones oportunas y animadas dirigidas a esposas que frecuentemente experimentan más presiones y tensión en sus vidas cotidianas que la mayoría de las mujeres cristianas. Con su acreditado estilo, Al Martin le dice a los lectores: «Es la Palabra de Dios la que señala el sendero en que la esposa del pastor debe estar y cómo ha de cumplir los roles y responsabilidades dados por Dios». Estas percepciones están fundamentadas en la Biblia y ciertamente sorprenderán y alentarán a la esposa del pastor en su singular sendero: con su esposo y con su Dios.

Este libro es bíblico. Puede ser que te sorprendas al descubrir cuántos textos de la Escritura hablan sobre el tema. El pastor Martin ha recopilado estos pasajes dispersos y los ha organizado en una teología del cuerpo muy completa. También es un libro práctico que contiene numerosas instrucciones concretas para ayudar a los lectores en su vida diaria. Estas no se expresan de una forma general ni ambigua que podría dejarnos confusos sobre el verdadero significado de lo que el pastor Martin quiere decir. No, más bien son instrucciones detalladas, específicas y que representan un reto; no nos permiten albergar ninguna incertidumbre sobre lo que Dios exige de nosotros.

Cómo glorificar a Dios en tu cuerpo | Glorifying God in Your Body

From 1978 to 1998, Pastor A.N. Martin taught Pastoral Theology in the Trinity Ministerial Academy, a church-based ministerial training institution. Every Friday throughout the academic year, all the students would gather for two hours of teaching presented in a four-year cycle. Subsequently various series of the audiotapes were widely circulated. Many expressed their desire to see these lectures printed. As an intermediate step in responding to that desire, the Trinity Baptist Church eldership decided to encourage Pastor Martin to rework the original lectures and deliver them one ﬁnal time, while professionally recording them. This project was begun in 2007 and completed in 2012 with Pastor Martin teaching his entire Pastoral Theology course "one more time" to 25 to 30 men. The transcriptions of these DVD lectures constituted the basis for the ﬁrst draft of these edited lectures. Within these lectures there are very few issues faced by the ordinary pastor that are not addressed in one way or another. It is the author's prayer that when all the volumes are nestled on the bookshelf of any pastor, that whatever his concern may be in conjunction with his pastoral labors, that he can expect that most likely, there is something in these volumes that would be of help to him. It is also the author's prayer that even the most experienced pastor will ﬁnd in these pages much that will provoke him to pursue greater personal godliness, increased preaching effectiveness, and expanded pastoral usefulness. This is Volume 1 of what is projected to be three volumes totaling more than 2000 pages. Every effort is being made to bring the subsequent volumes into print in a timely fashion.

The Man of God: His Calling and Godly Life: Volume 1 of Pastoral Theology

Trinity Pulpit Press

The Man of God: His Preaching and Teaching Labors. Among the manifold responsibilities and privileges of being a scripturally-recognized elder in Christ's church who is set apart to "labor in preaching and teaching"(1 Tim. 5:17), no function in that office is of greater importance than that of the preaching and teaching labors of the man of God. This book begins with the articulation of seven basic axioms that apply to every species of biblical preaching and teaching, and moves forward to identify the three basic categories of legitimate sermons. Then a working framework for the actual construction of sermons, including introductions and conclusions, is set before us. The concluding section focuses on the "Act of Preaching" itself. In these chapters, such things as the place of emotions, physical action, the use of vocal powers, and the benefits and liabilities of a sermon manuscript are thoroughly discussed. The author sets a treatment of these various subjects that is drawn primarily from the contents of the Bible, the insights of general revelation, and the confirming voice of proven guides from past generations.
