CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM A MISUNDERSTOOD TEACHING (Santamaria)

CHRISTIAN NATIONALISM: A FALSE UNDERSTANDING OF AMERICAN HISTORY

CORPORATE PRAYER AMONG BAPTISTS

FOREWORD

This is an excerpt from an upcoming eBook titled Corporate Prayer?

Guillermo Santamaria

Corporate prayer—people praying together as a gathered body—is as old as the Scriptures themselves, but its shape and meaning have shifted across time and traditions. Let’s trace the thread.

Crucified With Christ and Eternal Vital Union (Santamaria)

Section 1. Introduction – The Mystery of Union with Christ

Paul’s words in Galatians 2:20 stand among the most breathtaking statements in the New Testament: 'I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.'

Spiritual Trials and Blessed Assurance: A Biblical Contrast (Santamaria)

If you listen carefully to the Bible, you will hear two very different voices rising from the pages of its saints.

Under Constant Assault: A Biblical Study of Satan’s Attacks on Believers (Santamaria)

Section 1. Introduction – The Battlefield of Christian Life

The Bible never presents the Christian life as a stroll through a tranquil meadow. Instead, it portrays the path of the believer as a narrow road hemmed in by dangers, snares, and enemies both visible and invisible.

THE CRY OF THE LONELY SERVANT (Santamaria)

Every age of the church has heard the same cry echo across its valleys: “I, even I only, am left.” It is the cry of loneliness, the lament of one who feels abandoned, the sigh of a servant who mistakes his own weakness for the collapse of God’s kingdom. Few words in Scripture are so raw, so relatable, and—if we look closer—so arrogant.

All Things in the Gospel Must Come Through Christ (Santamaria)

The gospel is not an abstract system, nor a bare philosophy, nor even a set of moral rules. At its center stands a Person: Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Without Him, there is no gospel. Without Him, the promises of God are empty, the Scriptures are a closed book, and salvation is an impossibility. All things in the gospel must come through Christ, because He is Himself the gospel.
