Here is a lively journey through the Gospel according to Mark, providing many powerful, fresh insights. With a new, very personal approach, this book helps us to understand and apply revealed truth.
This is the second title to be released in a major new series in which David Pawson invites the reader to Come with me through . . . a book of the Bible.

Most of Christ's teaching on this uncomfortable subject was addressed to His followers, yet it hardly features in sermons today. Challenging the modern alternatives of liberal universalism and evangelical annihilationism, David Pawson presents the traditional concept of endless torment as soundly biblical, illustrating his argument with in-depth Scripture studies on controversial passages. Heaven is also a reality, he affirms, but it is hell which is being overlooked.

The author says, ''I am convinced that the recovery of this neglected truth is vital to the health of Christ's body.''

'Christianity Explained' was originally published in 1977
as 'Truth to Tell', and has now been updated, revised
and re-issued by Terra Nova Publications.
David Pawson discusses the essential questions of the Christian faith.

Is there a God? Is He a good God? Was the death of Jesus murder or suicide? Where is He now? What does saved mean? How does one become a Christian?
What about the Holy Spirit? Where does the Church fit in? How will it all end?

Gerald Williams, in the foreword, writes, - "We learn the right prayers, pick up some jargon, but we still don't know whether God is real. Many preachers, intoxicated by theology and yet themselves apparently unsure, fail to teach the simple, basic truths. David Pawson took me with such clarity through all the undergrowth and I soon began to see the light shining ahead.

For the most part, the Church has been silent about Jesus' role as Baptiser in the Spirit, though John declared this to be the principle contribution of His Messianic ministry.

Through exploration of the relevant Scriptures, David Pawson describes eight essential elements in Spirit baptism. He maintains that the sacramental, evangelical and pentecostal streams in Christianity have all failed to do justice to this biblical doctrine. In particular, its dual purpose of purity and power for salvation and service needs to be recovered if we are to become a truly apostolic Church in the 21st Century.

David Pawson writes,
"After a century of prominence, first outside the mainline denominations and then inside them, 'Baptism in the Spirit', is again falling out of the picture.
Before this surprising decline is accepted, urgent questions need to be faced.
Are we in danger of losing something vital?
The world has yet to see how much power, purity and unity there would be throughout the church if all her streams were declaring as loudly and clearly as John the baptiser, 'We baptise you in water, but Jesus will baptise you in the Holy Spirit'.

When natural disasters such as tsunamis, floods and earthquakes occur, many people ask the question 'If God is all-powerful and loving, why does he allow such things to happen?'

David Pawson looks carefully at what the Bible has to say about the significance of such events which can disrupt the lives of millions, bringing destruction, injury and death. As the number and intensity of such disasters increases, this book answers the need for a thoroughly biblical understanding of a major issue.

So often, spiritual disease can be traced back to an inadequate initiation into the Kingdom. A better birth means greater growth in a healthy Christian life.
David Pawson discusses some crucial and controversial biblical texts, challenging many traditional interpretations.

He questions the adequacy of the typical ''sinners prayer'' approach and gives practical tips on helping potential disciples to repent, believe, be baptised and recieve the Holy Spirit.

There is currently tremendous and growing interest in the impact of the familiar verse John 3 : 16.
This new and radical book exposes misguided teaching, clearing up many common misunderstandings and providing an extremely helpful and detailed explanation of the verse in its context.
The relevance of the surrounding verses is explored, and many fascinating insights equip the reader to understand the true meaning and significance of the passage and its proper application. Difficult and controversial issues are not avoided, and we are shown how powerful this passage is. A major challenge for today's Christians.

Has God brought the Jewish people back to Palestine?
How can both Jews and Christians be God's chosen people?
How many covenants are there in the Bible?
Do all Christian Zionists accept dispensational teaching?
Does the God of Israel ever change his promises?
These are some of the questions that must be faced in the light of current attacks on Christian Zionism by some evangelical Anglican writers.David Pawson believes that Christians need very clear biblical understanding before making political pronouncements about conflict in the Middle East.

Unlocking the Bible opens up the word of God in a fresh and powerful way. Avoiding the small detail of verse-by-verse studies, it sets out the epic story of God and his people in Israel. The culture, historical background and people are introduced and the teaching applied to the modern world.


Eight volumes have been brought into one compact and easy-to-use guide covering both the Old and the New Testaments.


Old testament:
The Makers Instructions - The five books of law;
A Land and A Kingdom - Joshua, Judges, Ruth, 1&2 Samuel, 1&2 Kings;
Poems of Worship and Wisdom - Psalms, Song of Solomon, proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Job;
Decline and Fall of an Empire - Isaiah, Jeremiah and other prophets;
The Struggle to Survive - Chronicles and prophets of exile.

New testament:
The Hinge of History - Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and acts;
The 13th Apostle - Paul and his letters;
Through the Suffering to Glory - Revelation, Hebrews, and the letters of James, Peter and Jude.

Those who believe what the Bible teaches about God’s plans and purposes for the people and place of Israel are often accused of giving more time and attention to the Old Testament than the New, and there is some truth in this.

Over 80% of the promises and prophecies of the Old Testament have been literally fulfilled. It is a simple matter of faith in God’s faithfulness to believe that he means what he says, and will do what he says he will do.

This exciting new study reveals that both the people and the place called ‘Israel’ have a significant role in God’s future plans for world redemption. Five books of the New Testament are used here to illustrate this important truth.

David Pawson is one of the Church's most highly regarded leaders and provocative teachers of the last thirty years.
As both pastor and preacher he has developed a reputation for prophetic biblical insight, clarity of expression and uncompromising but living challenge to Christian hearts and minds.
Describing himself as an unorthodox evangelical, he has remained faithful to his own vow to be honest with God’s word as revealed in the Bible, no matter what the cost or consequence ‘

'Not As Bad As The Truth’ is David’s typically honest, fresh, lucid account of his life and teaching. It recalls the influences and formative moments of his childhood, upbringing and early ministry, and concludes with a portrait of the less familiar man behind the teaching - David’s travels, hobbies and interests and the joys and challenge of life. But perhaps this book’s greatest legacy will be its summaries of the author’s most urgent and significant theology and his fascinating account of the styles and techniques of preaching.
With never a dull sentence, this book will be appreciated by all whose lives have been touched by David Pawson over a half-century of ministry.

When is the "End Of The World?", everyone keeps asking.
Currently the speculation is,

"Is the end of the world in 2012?"

On the internet the dates proposed are 2010 by one group, 2011 by another. 2012 by another and a DVD out says he has worked it out at 2013.
David Pawson brings clarity to this speculation, pointing out that even Jesus says that He did not know, as only the Father knows.


Christians everywhere await Christ's return. Will He come to the whole world or just one place? Soon and suddenly or after clear signs? What can He achieve by coming back here and how long will it take?

The author brings clarity and insight to these and other vital issues surrounding the bodily return of Jesus Christ to our world; a subject which will continue to dominate the church's agenda in the new millennium. Based on a new approach to the interpretation of the book of Revelation, the controversial subjects of the Rapture and the Millennium are discussed in detail, completing this important book for today.

"The Challenge of Islam to Christians" is David Pawson's most important, and perhaps, his most sobering, prophetic message to date"
Moral decline and erosion of a sense of ultimate truth have created a spiritual vacuum in the UK and David Pawson believes Islam will fill it
David Pawson examines Islam and the Christian faith from an unbeliever's point of view. He accepts the challenge Islam faces Christians with and analyses the challenge we face them with, in the hope of bringing them back from Mohammed to the Lord Jesus Christ

In this book, David Pawson call the church to back the very heart of the good news. For many, the 'gospel' is that God loves everybody unconditionally. Yet neither Jesus nor his apostles ever preached like that. They seem to have thought that the world needed to know about his righteousness and even his eagerness, to share that with us. That is because he is determined to have a universe in which there is no unrighteousness whatever. Why don't we think that is good news? 64pp

The majority Evangelical view is that once someone has accepted Christ as Saviour, they are guaranteed salvation. But is it safe to assume that once we are saved, we are saved for always?

David Pawson investigates this through biblical evidence, historical figures such as Augustine, Luther and Wesley, and evangelical assumptions about grace and justification, divine sovereignty and human responsibility.

This book helps us decide whether ''once saved, always saved'' is real assurance or a misleading assumption. The answer will have profound effects on the way we live and disciple others.

All Christians say they believe in Christ's second coming to earth but they are far from clear about what will precede or follow that world event. Taking Matthew chapters 24 & 25 as a basis, David Pawson clarifies the signs of his approaching advent and the separation of Christians that will be the result. Together they spell out what it means to live in hope
