Jesus Christ: The Real Story
This booklet seeks to address and answer the major questions that people naturally ask in trying to understand Jesus Christ-the real story.

The Church Jesus Built
In this booklet, we examine the fruits Jesus and His apostles said would identify His Church. We look at the contrasting fruits that identify those who are influenced by a different spirit and preach a different gospel. We will learn, not from human tradition or opinion but directly from God's Word, how we can distinguish "the church of the living God" (1 Timothy 3:15) from those who follow "false prophets" in sheep's clothing.

The Ten Commandments
Many religious people embrace the idea of loving others as themselves but remain blissfully unaware of how the Bible defines love. As a result, they do not understand the necessity of putting into practice the biblical principles that determine the success or failure of their relationships.

The New Covenant: Does It Abolish God's Law?
Does the New Covenant negate God's law and do away with any need to obey the Ten Commandments and other laws of God?
