"I have been systematically working through
reading the... Reformed CDs I purchased. I must say, there is nothing like
them available anywhere. It is the most amazing collection of works I know of
in one package to date... The Puritan and Reformed material presented on these CDs
is exceptional. I am continually amazed at the depth and breadth of information
in both collections, and the rarity of works that I now have at my fingertips.
You have done an immeasurable service for the Kingdom of Christ in making these
CDs available, and every pastor and theologian should own them without question
(they would be foolhardy to pass them by) ... more"

astounding accomplishment. There is nothing like this available to the ordinary
Christian on the whole face of the earth. Now, for the first time ever, ordinary
Christians can have direct and near effortless access to the very cream
of Puritan and Reformed, as well as Covenanter, literature... What they used
to say of the Puritan John Flavel's preaching, can be said of these CDs: they
are 'hissing hot'! ... more" (emphases added).

Resource 1. LEA,
CHARLES HENRY
A History of the Inquisition
of the Middle Ages (1887, 4 volumes)
One of the perennial (and insurmountable)
challenges for men like Scott Hahn, Gerry
Matatics, and Karl Keating -- men who have devoted their lives and
labors to the defense and promulgation of the Roman Catholic apostasy -- is
dealing with their Church's history. The grim irony
is that while these modern champions of Antichrist demand submission to the
Holy Roman Church, contending that she alone has the witness of history and
truth on her side, it is her very history indeed which removes forever any
crumb of credibility to her claims of faithfulness and infallibility. Thus, it has always been
one of the most powerful weapons in the arsenal of Christ's faithful witnesses
simply to recount the true and undeniable history of the Mother of Harlots and
Abominations of the Earth (Rev. 17:5). This tactic was used with
devastating success by Luther, Calvin, and others, and is of equal necessity
and efficacy in our day -- especially in light of the detestable neutrality and
even outright returning to the ways of Rome on the part of so many
"Protestant" and even "Reformed" and "Presbyterian"
churches. Through this means it is hoped that God will wake up His people to
the true nature of the ever-raging battle with the Dragon and his minions, and
drive us to our knees to seek His face, His forgiveness, and His grace to stand
against the darkness in our respective places and callings -- particularly
teaching our children the mighty acts of God in delivering His people in times
past from so great an evil, that they might be thankful and put their trust in
Him (Ps. 78:1-8).
In his atrocious chronicle, Rome Sweet Home: Our Journey to Catholicism,
Scott Hahn conveniently omits any mention of the
volumes of embarrassing and self-refuting details of the Roman Church's true
history, choosing instead to caricature the Reformers, pretend to scholarly
acumen, and do the very thing he hypocritically accuses Lorraine Boettner of
doing: presenting a lying portraiture of Rome. (See also the
reference to Hahn in the book summary for William Whitaker's Disputation on
Holy Scripture,
another irrefutable resource for squelching his siren song of spiritual
seduction: http://www.swrb.com/catalog/W.htm .) Therefore, we invite all seekers of truth to examine for
themselves one ugly chapter in the annals of Rome's abominations: the
inquisition of the Middle Ages. It is with gratitude to our merciful
God and the earnest desire for His powerful blessing that we once again present
to the public what was once a standard treatment on the subject, Henry Charles
Lea's History of the Inquisition of the Middle Ages.
To close, we leave you with Larry Birger's
comments. They are to the point and provide us with a telling summary of this
work (and the thoughts and feelings of righteous
indignation that such writing is sure to evoke among those led by the Spirit of
God),
I am simply amazed at the true
history of Rome. The best and only explanation I can find for why men would
endure, much less embrace, such a "church" is what God says in 2
Thess. 2: that He's given them over to blindness, that they might believe great
lies and thereby be justly damned for their failure to receive the love of the
truth. In just the glances I had at Lea's work, I am simply astonished that any
individual could submit himself to the "Holy Mother" of harlotries
and abominations which Rome is clearly seen to be in these volumes. The
Romish legacy of demonic brutality, inhumanity and disgrace stretches the
ability of even fallen man to comprehend.

JOEL & SINCLAIR FERGUSON
Reformed Confessions
Harmonized: With an Annotated Bibliography of Reformed Doctrinal Works
"For the first
time, seven important confessional statements produced in the sixteenth and
seventeenth centuries have been harmonized in a single volume. Three
strands of Reformed churches in Europe are represented:
Dutch-German: the Belgic
Confession of Faith (1561), the Heidelberg Catechism (1563), and the Canons of
Dort (1618-19)
Swiss: the Second Helvetic
Confession of Faith (1646-47)
Scottish-English: The Westminster
Confession of Faith (1646-47) and the Larger and Shorter Catechisms (1647)
This book's practical value is further enhanced
by its arrangement. The various confessions of faith have been arranged in
parallel columns under the traditional categories and subject headings of
systematic theology.
Readers will find it easy to study and compare the formulations on particular
points of doctrine, such as the Trinity, justification, Christian liberty, and
baptism... Drs. Beeke and Ferguson also provide a
historical introduction to the confessions and the respective conditions under
which they were framed. For those who desire to do further research,
an extensive annotated bibliography (of 24 pages--RB) of Reformed theological
writings is included" (back cover). 284 (8.5" X 11") pages.

CAWDREY, DANIEL
Independence a Great Schism:
Proved Against Dr. (John--RB) Owen, His Apology in his Tract of Schism (1657)
Chapter titles include: Of
the Nature of Schism in Scripture; Causeless Separation from a true Church is
Schism; Of the Church Catholic Mystical, and its Union; Of the Church Catholic
visible, and its Union; Independentism in Donatism; Of the particular Church,
and its Union; Independentism, a great Schism. Also contains "an appendix to the former discourse of schism; showing
the inconstancy of the Dr. and the inconsistency of his former and present
opinions." Dr. Calamy called Cawdrey, "a man of great
consideration, eminently learned, and a noted
member of the (Westminster--RB) assembly of divines. He preached
sometimes to the members of parliament... was ejected from his living at Great
Billing, and separated from his friends and his flock, by the act of
uniformity, after having laboured, for the edification of his people in that
place, for 36 or 37 years" (Thomas Smith, Select Memoirs... of Pious
and Learned English and Scottish Divines, pp. 488-489). 249 pages.

edited & severely shortened editions of this classic work which are in
print today. Covering martyrs from the early church through to Foxe's
day, it was one of the most influential books of the sixteenth century! It overflows with faith
building testimony of the power of God to overcome the most cruel &
barbarous acts of human depravity & demonic cruelty. 6890 pages. A very rare set, now back in print after 150 years!

Resource 6. Merle
D'Aubigne, J. H.
History of the Reformation in
Europe in the Time of Calvin (8 volumes, 1880 edition)
This engaging set, comprising eight volumes, is
the sequel to J.H. Merle D'Aubigne's History of the Reformation of the
Sixteenth Century
(in 5 Volumes, 1846, [$US34.91, cerlox bound photocopy; $US89.00, Hardcover
photocopy OUT OF PRINT]). In his typical
easy-to-read, captivating style, the author resumes where he had left off in
his other five volumes (which focused more on Luther and the period of Reform
up to 1531), entering, in this set, upon the more developed Reformation thought
of Calvin, Knox, et al.
The preface (in volume one) of this important
work states it this way,
At the conclusion of the preface to the first
volume of the History of the Reformation, the author wrote, 'This work will
consist of four volumes, or at the most five, which will appear successively.'
These five volumes have appeared. In them are described the heroic times of
Luther, and the effects
produced in Germany and other countries by the
characteristic doctrine of that reformer -- justification by faith. They present a picture
of that great epoch which contained in the germ the revival of Christianity in
the last three centuries. The author has thus completed the task he had
assigned himself; but there still remained another.
The times of Luther were followed by those of
Calvin. He, like his great predecessor, undertook to search the Scriptures, and
in them he found the same truth and the same life; but a different character
distinguishes his work.
The renovation of the individual,
of the Church, and of the human race, is his theme. If the Holy Ghost
kindles the lamp of truth in man, it is (according to Calvin) 'to the end that
the entire man should be transformed.' -- 'In the kingdom of Christ,' he says,
'it is only the new man that flourishes and has any vigor, and whom we ought to
take into account.' This renovation is, at the
same time, an enfranchisement; and we might assign, as a motto to the
reformation accomplished by Calvin, as well as to apostolical Christianity
itself, these words of Jesus Christ: The truth shall make you free. (John 8:32)...
The reformation of the sixteenth
century restored to the human race what the middle ages had stolen from them; it delivered them from
the traditions, laws, and despotism of the papacy; it put an end to the
minority and tutelage in which Rome claimed to keep mankind for ever; and by
calling upon man to establish his faith not on the word of a priest, but on the
infallible Word of God, and by announcing to every one free access to the
Father through the new and saving way -- Christ Jesus, it
proclaimed and brought about the hour of Christian manhood...
Luther transformed princes into heroes of the
faith, and we have described with admiration their triumphs at Augsburg and
elsewhere. The reformation of Calvin was addressed
particularly to the people, among whom it raised up martyrs until the time came
when it was to send forth the spiritual conquerors of the world. For three centuries it
has been producing, in the social condition of the nations that have received
it, transformations unknown to former times. And still at this very day, and
now perhaps more than ever, it imparts to the men
who accept it a spirit of power which makes them chosen instruments, fitted to
propagate truth, morality, and civilisation to the ends of the earth.
In this extensive
chronicle of international Reformation the author has made use
of the archives in Geneva, Calvin's Latin letters, numerous French documents of
the sixteenth century and many other sources not
readily available (especially to English readers). This has
greatly increased the value of this work, as a great deal of this information
is not available elsewhere in English. Moreover, the broad historical and
geographical range (from the Hugenots to the Netherlands to Norway and on)
covered herein, coupled with the author's extensive research (in various
languages) makes this an unique treasure for those seeking to "walk in the
footsteps of the flock" (Song of Solomon 1:8). In
fact, there are few other large Reformation histories, written by Calvinists,
that rival this set.

BANNERMAN, JAMES
Church of Christ: A Treatise
on the Nature, Powers, Ordinances, Discipline, and Government of the Christian
Church (1869)
Two large volumes. A classic on the Church
and worship!
This is one of the most extensive studies of its kind ever compiled. Nothing
compares to it on this subject. Regarding these gems, Iain
Murray has stated, "In our day, however
greatly we need an evangelical revival, we need more than that. We need another
Reformation, a movement which will go 'to the root of the mischief' and bring
back the visible church to the pattern of God's Word in her government,
ordinances and ministry. The republication of Bannerman is a step in that
direction... For those who wish to study the doctrine of the Church in its
several aspects as it was held by the majority of the Reformers, Puritans,
Covenanters and leaders of 'The Third Reformation,' it will prove an invaluable
textbook." Volume one deals
with the nature and power of the church, containing a lengthy explanation of
the Church in its relation to the state (which is one of the best treatments of
this topic to be found anywhere!). From there, it deals with matters in regard
to which church power is exercised (i.e. in regard to doctrine, ordinances, the
instrumentality and time of public worship -- with a discussion of holy days,
Independency, and confessions). Volume two
continues where volume one left off, providing a lengthy section on the
sacraments, covering the parties in whom the right to exercise church power is
vested, examining crucial points concerning Christian liberty, comparing the
Popish, Prelatic, Independent, Congregational and Presbyterian systems, etc. Nine appendices
deal with a wide range of practical topics including union between churches,
church/state relations, ordination, and valuable notes on the literature
related to this subject. If you are interested in Church issues, you won't find a
better set.

THE ENGLISH HEXAPLA EXHIBITING
THE SIX IMPORTANT ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES, WICLIF,
TYNDALE, CRANMER, GENEVAN, ANGLO-RHEMISH, AUTHORIZED OR KING JAMES VERSION (1841)
"Hexapla," of course, means "six-fold" or "six-columned" As the section of this book explaining the "Plan of the English Hexapla" notes, "the term 'Hexapla' was originally applied to the work executed by Origen in the 3rd century; in which the first column contained the Hebrew Text of the Old Testament; the second, the Hebrew text in Greek letters; the third, Aquila's Greek version; the fourth, the translation of Symmachus; the fifth, the LXX version (i.e. the Septuagint--RB); the sixth, Theodotion's version." The English Hexapla offered here contains the six English translations noted in the title, arranged side by side for easy comparison and reference. Dates for each version used are as follows: Wiclif (1380), Tyndal (1534), Cranmer (1539), Geneva (1557), Rheims (1582), King James Version (1611). Of special interest may be the Geneva 1557 version (from a copy of the first edition), as both Geneva Bible's presently in print contain later versions (1599 and 1602) of this text. It should also be noted that the notes to the Geneva Bible are not included in the English Hexapla, just the text. The 1611 edition of the KJV will also be of value to those who would like to compare it with the more modern version of this translation. "The notation of the verses has been inserted in all the translations, for convenience of reference... In illustration of the utility of the comparison of the various translations, much that is interesting might be advanced, but which the use of the volume will at once afford. The varied, although ordinarily equivalent manner in
