| Posted 10/13/2002 3:24 PM (GMT -6) |   | I know we have done this before, but I would be interested in some of the books you guys have been reading. I am talking about theological/philosophical/historical theology/systematic theology, etc, books. What are some of your favorites? Like what ones have REALLY impacted your thinking? On Friday I went over to the States and picked up a couple of books, ('cause I can't get them here  ). One was by Kevin Giles and the other one was by Gary DeMar.
The one by Kevin Giles is called, "The Trinity and Subordinationism: The Doctrine of God and the Contemporary Gender Debate."
www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0830826637/qid=1034557095/sr=2-1/ref=sr_2_1/002-3337128-7788035
Sometimes I pick up a book because of the author. That is, I have read this author before and no matter what subject he chooses to write on, I will pick him up. I did that with Giles. Previously, I picked up, "What on Earth is the Church: An Exploration in New Testament Theology" and found him to be very thorough.
Now, with Gary DeMar, I picked him up because I think he has done a service to the church concerning popular eschatology. I read his book, "Last Days Madness" and found it to be very good at dismantling Hal Lindsey's crystal ball theology. And on Friday I picked up, "End Times Fiction: A Biblical Consideration of the Left Behind Theology" (basically the same as LDM but focuses on Tim LaHaye's Left Behind series).

Though, I don't agree with everything DeMar has to say, (mainly because he is a reconstructionist, and his take on U.S. History, and he is a postmillenialist) on this point of "newspaper eschatology" he is right on.
Sooo...I would like to see some other's fav books and maybe a little review. I am particularly interesting in any books on Christiology. I believe Greg put something up a long time ago on the Christiology thread, but if anyone has any others, please shoot them my way. Again, we are not restricted to this subject (Christiology).
Thank you and...good-day.
