Walking About Zion: Singing of Christ's Church in the Psalms

In 18 lessons Rev. Vander Hart walks through these sometimes difficult and hotly debated chapters of Genesis. In a very clear and succinct way he argues that the days of creation were six "ordinary days." But the most impressive aspect of this Bible study is that it does not get stuck in these difficult questions but moves beyond them to open up what God is revealing about Himself in these chapters.

Jesus Loves the Little Children : Why We Baptize Children

Daniel R. Hyde

While man has universally and perpetually desired the visual in his relationship with God, God has given his people the Word and sacraments as manifestations of his presence until Christ comes again, visibly and corporeally___in living color. This is the classic Reformed exegesis of Scripture as expressed in its confessions. __________ "Danny Hyde has written an excellent piece on a very misunderstood subject. Through effective combination of biblical, theological, and confessional discussions, he has presented the Reformed view of the second commandment winsomely and attractively. He helpfully emphasizes not the negative prohibition of making images of God but the positive facts that God has revealed himself now so generously in Word and Sacrament and will one day reveal himself visibly in the most perfect and authentic way." -David VanDrunen, Robert B. Strimple Associate Professor of Systematic Theology and Christian Ethics, Westminster Seminary California

In Living Color: Images of Christ and the Means of Grace

Twelve authors have contributed to this valuable resource for training elders and deacons. The authors, ministers and professors in the United Reformed Churches in North America, have carefully explained the duties and responsibilities of elders and deacons, including practical suggestions on topics ranging from how to conduct a meeting efficiently to why it is important for the elder to know and defend Reformed doctrine. This book includes an excellent historical overview of the development of the Reformed churches from the Reformation to today; specific advice on dealing with potential church members who do not yet understand covenant theology and infant baptism; and a study guide with coordinated lessons from Scripture, the confessions, and each chapter of this book. It is clear that the authors consider the calling of elders and deacons to be significant. They encourage diligence on the part of elders and deacons to fill worthily the offices Christ has ordained. Contributing authors: John A. Bouwers, Michael G. Brown, W. Robert Godfrey, Michael S. Horton, Daniel R. Hyde, Nelson Kloosterman, Randal S. Lankheet, Bradd L. Nymeyer, Ralph Pontier, Kim Riddlebarger, Derrick J. Vander Meulen, Cornelis P. Venema.

Called to Serve : Essays for Elders and Deacons

The Belgic Confession is one of the oldest Reformed confessions, a landmark for churches around the world. Daniel Hyde presents a commentary that is accessible and thorough, a resource for laymen and for ministers. From the back cover: The Belgic Confession contains doctrine that is worth dying for, as its author and many adherents learned all too well. Opponents of the Belgic Confession have put its adherents to death because through this powerful document, the church speaks its prophetic biblical message to the world in which it exists. Yet because this confession of faith has been neglected for far too long in the Reformed churches, author Daniel Hyde offers a necessary, fresh exposition and application of its doctrine in the twenty-first century, with the hope of setting the Reformed churches on fire for their historic Christian, Protestant, and Reformed faith in the midst of a cold and lifeless world. The Belgic Confession is not a systematic theology but the historic and systematic confession of faith by the Reformed churches. With this commentary Danny Hyde has done the Reformed churches a great service by placing our confession in its historical, theological, and ecclesiastical contexts again. By reading it in the light of those contexts, he brings it to life for us in our time. Anyone wishing to understand better the Belgic Confession on its own terms and as it has been received by the Reformed churches must consult this intelligent work. -R. Scott Clark, Associate Professor of Historical and Systematic Theology, Westminster Seminary California. It has been a long time since a Belgic Confession commentary of this caliber was last published in English. Biblical, historical, and erudite, Reverend Hyde helps the Confession speak freshly to our day. With Heart and Mouth will be warmly welcomed by pastors called to teach and preach the Belgic Confession. -Wes Bredenhof, Pastor, Langley Canadian Reformed Church, Langley, British Columbia.

With Heart and Mouth : An Exposition of the Belgic Confession

"Forty years ago the Board of Reformed Fellowship commissioned nine men, who today would be considered a 'Who's Who' in Reformed theology, to commemorate the 350th anniversary of the Synod of Dort. Under the leadership of the editor, Dr. Peter Y. De Jong, these giants in the faith wrote on a variety of topics regarding this great event in Reformed history. Their contributions brought to the Christian community a greater understanding of the history and necessity of the Synod of Dort, the key figures involved in the Synod, and the application of the decisions made at the Synod to the tumultuous times within the church during the sixties. Each article reflected not only the expertise of the writer, but also his love for the Reformed faith..." With these words Wybren Oord, editor of The Outlook, begins the introduction to this new printing of Crisis in the Reformed Churches. Contributing authors: Peter Y. DeJong-- pastor for several churches in the CRC; Professor of Practical Theology at Calvin Theological Seminary; one of the founders of Mid-America Reformed Seminary. Simon Kistemaker-- Professor of New Testament Emeritus, RTS; past president and secretary-treasurer, Evangelical Theological Society. Fred H. Klooster-- professor of Systematic Theology at Calvin Theological Seminary. John Murray--professor of Systematic Theology and co-founder, Westminster Seminary, Philadelphia. Edwin H. Palmer-- minister in the CRC; professor at Westminster Theological Seminary; executive secretary, Committee on Bible Translation (NIV). Louis Praamsma-- minister in the CRC; professor of Church History, Calvin Theological Seminary. Klaas Runia-- professor of Systematic Theology, Reformed Theological College, Geelong, Australia; professor of Practical Theology, Theological Seminary, Kampen, Netherlands. Cornelius Van Til-- professor of Apologetics, Westminster Theological Seminary. Marten H. Woudstra-- professor of Old Testament, Calvin Theological Seminary; translator, NIV.

Crisis in the Reformed Churches: Essays in Commemoration of the Great Synod of Dort

In eighteen lessons, this Bible study guide helps the reader to see the further unfolding of God's covenant promises and His plans with His people. Joseph grows up as a younger brother, hated by his own family, sold into slavery, and yet God's revelation will come through him. God will use Joseph to deliver His people from famine, and the world will seek deliverance from him. Judah, fourth son of Jacob, does not impress us when he marries a Canaanite and visits a prostitute. But the amazing grace of God in Jesus Christ will change his heart, and Judah will begin to emerge as the royal son, from whom will come the Messiah. Christ will work in the lives of His sinful people to bring about a great salvation. Even when people plan evil, God is able to bring about His good.
