Book excerpt: Over the last couple of decades, B.R. Ambedkar has come to be idolized as no other political leader has. His statue is one of the largest in the Parliament complex. Political parties have reaped rich electoral dividends riding on his name. A decades-old cartoon of him in a textbook rocked Parliament for days recently, causing parties across the political spectrum to run for cover and call for the withdrawal of the 'offending' cartoon. In Worshipping False Gods, Arun Shourie employs his scholarly rigour to cast a critical look at the legend of Ambedkar. With his distinctive eye for detail, Shourie delves into archival records to ask pertinent questions: Did Ambedkar coordinate his opposition to the freedom struggle with the British? How does his approach to social change contrast with that of Mahatma Gandhi's? Did the Constitution spring from him or did it grow as a dynamic living organism? Passionately argued and based on a mountain of facts that it presents, Worshipping False Gods compels us to go behind the myths on which discourse is built in India today.

Book excerpt: The issue of idolatry has been with the human race for thousands of years; the subtle temptation is always to take what is good and turn it into the ultimate good, elevating it above all other things in the search for security and meaning. In this timely and challenging book, New York pastor Timothy Keller looks at the issue of idolatry throughout the Bible -- from the worship of actual idols in the Old Testament, to the idolatry of money by the rich young ruler when he was challenged by Jesus to give up all his wealth. Using classic stories from the Bible Keller cuts through our dependence on the glittering false idols of money, sex and power to uncover the path towards trust in the real ultimate -- God. Today's idols may look different from those of the Old Testament, but Keller argues that they are no less damaging. Culturally transforming as well as biblically based, COUNTERFEIT GODS is a powerful look at the temptation to worship what can only disappoint, and is a vital message in today's current climate of financial and social difficulty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr Francis S. Collins, head of the Human Genome Project, is one of the world's leading scientists, working at the cutting edge of the study of DNA, the code of life. Yet he is also a man of unshakable faith in God. How does he reconcile the seemingly unreconcilable? In THE LANGUAGE OF GOD he explains his own journey from atheism to faith, and then takes the reader on a stunning tour of modern science to show that physics, chemistry and biology -- indeed, reason itself -- are not incompatible with belief. His book is essential reading for anyone who wonders about the deepest questions of all: why are we here? How did we get here? And what does life mean?

Book excerpt: Jesus warned that when He returns in judgment, "many" will call Him "Lord," and say that they have "prophesied, cast out devils, and done many wonderful things" in His, Jesus', name. To which He will reply that, He "never knew" them (Matthew 7:22-23). Which Jesus is it then, that these "many" false Christians are doing works in the name of, and calling "lord," if not the authentic Jesus of the Bible?When the character and nature of the God of the Bible is changed in any way, a new false god is born. A false god who has a false god son, named Jesus. In this age of Postmodern Progressivism, where truth is relative and under emphasized, and there are 35,000 different denominations, one needs to be careful they are calling the correct Jesus, "lord." The responsibility of getting this right cannot be deferred to anyone: not your pastor, not your priest, and not the pope.Author, Doug Hooley, discusses the history and underlying causes of what is contributing to a startling yet stealthy and seldom recognized problem today; polytheism, the worship of many false gods, within the Church! Doug discusses how to recognize a "not-quite-Jesus," and utilizing biblical principles, guard against such false gods that come in the name of Christ. According to research, people are leaving traditional churches in droves. They are no longer content with traditional religion that has strayed so far from the truth, that even words such as "faith," "hope," and "belief," have lost their original meaning as used in the first century. Many are hungering and searching for the authentic Jesus of the Bible. They are longing to hear His true and complete good news, instead of carrying the weight of traditional religious burdens on their backs. They are looking for the Jesus that came to free them from such burdens and the false gods of religious imaginations who would have them be in bondage. False Christian Gods: Choose Your Jesus Wisely, is a tool to help those who are in search of the authentic Jesus, and His authentic truth.

Now, on the cusp of Christ's return, this dramatic and miraculous story can be fully told!
