REASSESSING PAUL & THE PROTESTANT PARADIGM - A reformation of sorts is occurring in Pauline studies - based in large measure on a more accurate understanding of Second Temple Judaism and a far greater respect for the Hebraic dimensions of Paul's life and thought.  In this three part teaching series Dwight shards some of these important scholarly insights with you.  Realigning our thinking on just a few pivotal concepts in Paul's theological vocabulary can open a window to the fresh air of revelation and a panoramic view of God's purposes at work in Messiah that is truly awe-inspiring.  On 3 CDs.

 

OUT JESUS, CHRISTIANS & THE LAW - This helpful series focuses on the nature, value and relevance of the Torah (Law) for Christians today.  Is Jesus the "end" of the Law?  Is the Law still applicable to believers in Jesus, and if so, how?  Dwight carefully addresses these controversial issues and clarifies other often-asked questions regarding the Christian attitude toward the Law and our obligations toward it under the new covenant.  On 2 CDs.

 

"ON THIS ROCK..." - Dwight helps us to understand and apply the principles that guided the first church in its organization and function.  The five-fold ministry, plurality of pastors, spiritual gifts, church government and spiritual authority, the relationship of church and synagogue - these are but a few of the controversial issues addressed in this unique study.  On 4 CDs.

THE HIGHEST FORM OF WORSHIP - Too often Christians have the attitude that prayer and worship are "spiritual" activities but study is not.  Dwight exposes this sentiment as unbiblical and impoverishing.  He summons the Church back to the biblical mandate of study which leads to obedience - the highest form of worship in Jesus' day.  On 3 CDs.

 

BEHOLD THE MAN - DVD seminar and study textbook - The restoration of the Jewish homeland, Israel, and the reconnection of the Church to its Jewish roots are not unrelated phenomena.  Indeed, there is scarcely a single NT subject that cannot be amplified, deepened, or balanced by a Hebraic perspective.  At the root of this renewal of the Church stands a Jewish man, Jesus of Nazareth - Yeshua Mi-Natzeret.  It is imperative that we understand Yeshua - His person and His work, His mission and His message - in the full frame of His original Jewish matrix.  Join Dwight for twelve stimulating Bible study sessions, each forty minutes in length, designed to create a discipleship dynamic ideal for any educational setting.  On 6 DVD's and a book.

BLOW THE TRUMPET IN ZION - This book tells the dramatic story of God's Covenant plan for Israel as it is recorded in the Bible and revealed in history.  It includes a fascinating survey of the entire history of the Jewish people including their past glory and suffering, present crisis and future hope.

 

OUT JESUS IN THE FEASTS OF ISRAEL - Christ is revealed in the Old Testament through God's carefully ordered system of ceremonial worship.  He revealed Himself most clearly to the nation of Israel.  This is especially evident in the seven "feasts of the Lord" as detailed in Leviticus 23: Passover, Unleavened Bread, First Fruits, Pentecost, Trumpets, Atonement, and Tabernacles.  These feasts represent seven phases of spiritual growth.  Jesus in the feasts of Israel presents these festivals as Jehovah's foreshadowings of the New Testament Christ and His various works of grace in the lives of all believers.  The author clearly depicts the unity found in God's unfolding purposes for His people - from the new birth found in Passover and the Crucifixion, all the way to entering God's rest found in the Feast of Tabernacles and the Second Coming.  Richard Booker carefully explains how Christ fulfills each revelation and how all Christians can apply to their lives the individual spiritual insights each feast offers.  The study is straightforward and easy to follow, offering rich and intriguing insights into this area of bible history.  Discussion questions are included after each chapter.

 

THE MIRACLE OF THE SCARLET THREAD - THE STORY OF GOD'S BLOOD COVENANT WITH MAN - The scarlet thread is woven through every book of the Bible.  The fabric it forms is God's blood covenant provided for man, a subject few in the West understand.  The Miracle of the Scarlet Thread provides a new way to unravel the complexities of the Bible by explaining this subject.  It reveals God's order, sheds light on the Old Testament and demonstrates in clear language how the Old Testament and New Testament fit together to tell one complete story.

 

NO LONGER STRANGERS - Rediscovering the chosen people and the Jewish roots of Christianity - People all over the world are searching for their roots.  Likewise, Christians are searching for their spiritual roots.  Believers around the world are discovering there was a vital connection between Christianity and Judaism that was severed centuries ago.  Once that severing took place, biblical Judaism and biblical Christianity, which God intended to be one, went their separate ways.  This is a new spiritual season when the Lord is calling both Christians and Jews back to their biblical roots.  The biblical root of Christianity is Jewish.  This root grew from an everlasting covenant God made with Abraham.  Christians became part of that root through their acceptance of Jesus as Messiah and Lord.  Believers who are discovering their roots are experiencing profound changes in their lives.  Their understanding of the bible becomes richer, deeper, and clearer with new and powerful insights.  Their walk with God is energized and their love relationship with Jesus is rekindled.  If you desire these wonderful benefits in your life, you must read No Longer Strangers.

 

CHRISTIAN ZIONISTS, JEWS AND ISRAEL -  Can a Christian be a Zionist?  The word "Zion" comes from the Bible.  It is mentioned 159 times.  It basically refers to the Land of Israel and Jerusalem as the political and spiritual home of the Jewish people.  Although the word "Zion" has traditionally been understood, as it applies to the Jewish people, this word is now being associated with Christians.  Christian Zionists give millions of dollars every year to help tens of thousands of Jews make aliyah from the former Soviet Union.  They feed thousands of the poor every month in Israel.  They sponsor tours of thousands of pilgrims each year to Israel.  They stand in solidarity with the people of Israel and speak out against anti-Semitism.  They are even represented in the Knesset in Israel.  But who or what is a Christian Zionist?  In this publication, Dr Richard Booker explains the following in clear easy-to-understand language: what is a Christian Zionist?; how can a Christian be a Zionist?; What do Christian Zionists believe?; what is the work of Christian Zionists?; leading Christian Zionist organizations; Christian Zionists and the Jewish people; Christian Zionists and Israel; a new era in Jewish and Christian relations.

 

OUT TORAH: LAW OR GRACE? - Are you under Law or Grace?  Torah: Law or Grace? could be one of the most eye-opening books you will ever read.  In these brief pages, you will discover how Western Christianity misinterpreted a most fundamental teaching in the Bible.  This is the teaching on law and grace.  This book explains how these powerful words have been misunderstood, the prophetic restoration of their true meaning, and the significance this has for your life.  In this revolutionary book, Dr. Richard Booker clarifies the meaning of law and grace, how they relate to the Messiah and the practical application for our lives today.

 

OUT SHABBAT SHALOM - A guide for Christians to understand the Sabbath - Shabbat Shalom!  For centuries the Jewish people have greeted each other with this wonderful phrase on their special day of rest - the Sabbath.  While the Sabbath is central in Jewish life, many Christians are being called by God to discover the Jewish roots of their faith.  The result is that a growing number of believers around the world are wanting to learn about the Sabbath.  In this publication, Richard Booker tells us what the Bible says about the Sabbath and how Christians can celebrate the Sabbath from a Christian perspective in their own home.  Richard explains: the Sabbath in the First Testament; the Sabbath between the Testaments; Jesus and the Sabbath; Paul and the Sabbath; the Church and the Sabbath; celebrating the Sabbath in the Christian home.

 

OUT HERE COMES THE BRIDE - One of the most beautiful pictures of God's love is the ancient Jewish wedding.  God has called both Jews and Gentiles to a marriage relationship with Him through our Heavenly Bridegroom, the Messiah.  God has only one bride, and He has sent the matchmaker from Heaven to make us one with Him.  Here Comes the Bride will warm your heart and give you hope for the future.  In this publication, Richard Booker helps you understand God's love and calling to His bride from a Hebraic perspective.  He explains: the biblical concept of marriage as a covenant between God and His people; ancient Jewish wedding customs and how they point to the Messiah; how God is calling both Jews and Gentiles from around the world to Himself; what we can do to prepare ourselves for the greatest even of the ages - the wedding of the bride.

 

ANCIENT JEWISH PRAYERS AND THE MESSIAH - The prayers of Jesus are one of the most important Biblical Hebraic roots of Christianity.  Unfortunately, His prayers have been misunderstood because they have been read through western eyes.  In the New Testament period, there were prescribed prayers written centuries earlier that Jesus would have prayed.  Christianity inherited these prayers.  In fact, the most famous Jewish prayer in Christendom is the "Lord's Prayer" which was a summary of the heart and soul of true prayer that has come to us through the Jewish people.  In order to pray Biblically, Christians can learn much from ancient Jewish prayers, their place in the New Testament, the way Jews pray today, and the connection of Jewish prayers to Christian prayers.  In this profound book that will revolutionize your prayer life, Dr. Richard Booker helps you discover: the Jewish background to Christian prayers including the Shema, the place of Blessings, and the Kaddish; the most important ancient Jewish prayer and its connection to Christianity, the ingathering of the Jews to Israel, the restoration of Jerusalem, the rebuilding of the Temple and the coming of Messiah; the Jewish background to the "Lord's Prayer" and what it means to pray with Kavanah - spiritual focus, intent and zeal.

 

THE TIME TO FAVOR ZION HAS COME - One of the greatest events of our times is the rebirth of the Nation of Israel.  Many people believe this historic event to be a fulfillment of Bible prophecy.  Others consider it nothing more than a passing coincidence of world history.  Whatever your view, we cannot ignore the events taking place in the Middle East.  In this publication, Richard Booker tells us what the Bible, not the news media, says about: the meaning of Zion for Jews, Christians and the nations; God's Plan for Zion in the latter days.; God's Controversy with the nations over Zion; the God of the Bible and the generic god of the world; Israel and Jerusalem, the final outcome.

 

HOW THE CROSS BECAME A SWORD - The persecution that the Jewish people have experienced for the last 2000 years has been horrifying.  Much of this persecution has come from the Christian church.  A spirit of anti-Semitism still lies deep within the hearts of many nominal Gentile Believers, and church leaders.  The relationship of the Church to the Jews, and the nation of Israel will soon cause a major division in the Church.  Both Jews and Christians must be informed!  In this publication, Richard Booker explains the following timely information: the events that separated Christianity from its Jewish roots in the first three centuries of the Church; how the Church embraced pagan ideas and practices that established anti-Semitism as official Church doctrine; how Hitler could quote Martin Luther to justify the Holocaust; what Christians should do in the light of current world events that are fanning the fires of anti-Semitism.

 

THE BATTLE FOR TRUTH - Middle East Myths - not available for mailing - Read Online HERE Have you been confused hearing the conflicting claims between Israel and her Arab neighbors?  It can be very difficult to understand the complex issues between them that constantly threaten world peace.  It is hard to separate fact from fiction.  We are in a great battle for truth regarding the Middle East and the Arab-Israeli conflict.  Average decent people are being deceived to believe myths as facts and facts as myths regarding this never ending struggle.  How can we know what is true?  Through propaganda, fabrications, distortion of facts, staged news and biased reporting, Israel is presented as an aggressor state that stole Arab land and drove Palestinians from their homes where they have lived for centuries.  We are told if Israel would only give in to Arab demands for a state of their own, there would be peace.  But what are the facts?  Dr. Richard Booker helps you separate fact from fiction.  A Christian scholar and historian, he uses the biblical record and the actual facts of history to clarify the most important myths related to Jews and Israel, Palestine, Palestinians, Jerusalem, Moslem tolerance, refugees, Jewish pioneers and settlers, occupied Arab East Jerusalem, the "West Bank," the true identity of Yasser Arafat, and much, much more.

 

Miscellaneous

 

OUT - ONE FOOT IN HEAVEN - The Story of Bob Lindsey of Jerusalem - One Foot in Heaven is the intriguing story of Robert L. "Bob" Lindsey's more than four decades in Palestine and Israel, most of the time serving as pastor of a Baptist Church in Jerusalem.  No one loved the land of the Bible and the people of the land, including Jews, Arabs, and expatriates, more than Bob Lindsey.  With strong faith and a sense of humor he faced the challenges of wars, fire bombing by religious radicals, and losing his left foot from an antipersonnel mine explosion while helping an Arab youth return to Israel.  On one occasion when Lindsey was not feeling well, his son-in-law Ken Mullican remarked, "You're moving like you have one foot in the grave!"  Lindsey replied with a grin, "No, not one foot in the grave - I have one foot in heaven!"

 

OUR FATHER ABRAHAM - JEWISH ROOTS OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH - by Marvin Wilson  The roots of Christianity run deep into Hebrew soil.  Though the Hebrew heritage of the church is rich and extensive, many Christians are regrettably uninformed about it...Our Father Abraham is an introduction to the world of Hebrew thought.  It is intended primarily for Christians...This manuscript goes forth with the hope that it will prove instrumental in pointing Christians of every denomination and ethnic background to the importance and richness of their Hebrew heritage.  But more than this, my deepest desire is to convey through these pages an attitude, not merely information.   From the preface of Our Father Abraham.

 

OUR HANDS ARE STAINED WITH BLOOD - The Tragic Story of the "Church" and the Jewish People by Michael L. Brown - From the first "Christian" persecutions of the Jews in the fourth century to the unspeakable horrors of the holocaust, from Israel-bashing in today's press to anti-Semitism in today's pulpits, this shocking and painful book tells the tragic story of the "Church" and the Jewish people.  It is a story every Christian must hear.
