Scoffers: Responding to Those Who Deliberately Overlook Creation and the Flood offers a strong defense for biblical authority equipping believers to stand firm, preach the truth, and make disciples.

The scoffers of Peter's day were very much like modern-day skeptics in that they deliberately overlook the facts of biblical history. The cost of their unbelief is catastrophic even within the Christian church. Author Simon Turpin, the executive director of Answers in Genesis in the U.K., prepares us to confidently counter the philosophical bias of scoffers by:

Revealing how the Gospel of salvation can only be understood in light of the Genesis account of a six-day creation and the global Flood.

People assume Christians have all the answers---yet, in the face of tragedy, death or suffering, everyone struggles to find just the right words to bring comfort or closure to those in need.

Sometimes just hearing "It is God's will" isn't enough. Sometimes just saying "God will turn this to good" seems so meaningless when despair is so profound. Often the pain goes too deep, the questions won't go away, and even the assurance of faith doesn't help. How could God let this happen? How can God love us, yet allow us to suffer in this way? What is the point of this---what is the purpose?

In How Could a Loving God...?, Ken Ham makes clear the answers found in the pages of Scripture---powerful, definitive, and in a way that helps your heart to go beyond mere acceptance. When you grasp the reality of original sin---and all that it means---it creates a vital foundation for your heart to finally understand what follows.

• What are the most common mistakes people make in trying to understand Genesis?
• What are the necessary rules of biblical interpretation, and what is the proper role of science in understanding the Bible?
• How does one identify the various types of biblical literature, and how do the rules of interpretation handle each type - poetic, prophetic, historical, etc.?

Is there one correct interpretation of the Bible, or are there many? Discover why the young earth creationist position holds alternative positions to be rationally impossible.

Inheriting and expanding a magnificent kingdom from his father, King David, Solomon attained both spiritual and material wealth, confounding his enemies and thrilling his own people. The Bible claims there will never be another like Him. His legacy includes three canonical works that flowed from God to his pen - Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Song Of Solomon. Strangely, these three books are rarely examined by modern scholars, but longtime author and defender of the faith Henry Morris has now provided an invaluable commentary. His examination of Solomon's life, and the insights into the writings themselves, give the Bible student a worthy tour through the life of a most remarkable man.
