Luz antigua sobre la nueva adoraciónJohn Price Con entusiasmo recomiendo este libro sobre la adoración congregacional. Es una gran ayuda tener acceso a una examinación moderna y académica sobre esta cuestión: ¿Cuáles instrumentos musicales son y no son permitidos en la adoración pública a Dios? Este breve estudio sobre un aspecto del principio regulativo es de primera clase, siendo tratado de manera clara y completa, pero al mismo tiempo con cortesía y sabiduría pastoral. Lo recomiendo enormemente tanto a los miembros de la iglesia como a los ministros del evangelio. MAURICE ROBERTSMinistro de la Iglesia Libre de Inverness, Escocia He quedado sorprendido de la manera en que el autor, John Price, desarrolla el tema de este libro. Esta es una obra redactada con sencillez, pero no con superficialidad. Esta lectura fue para mí como un viaje teológico e histórico acerca del uso de los instrumentos en la adoración a Dios, la cual he disfrutado en gran manera. John Price alienta al lector a dar la gloria debida a Dios y a mirar la importancia del canto congregacional a la manera de Dios. Además, ofrece consejos muy útiles para aquellas iglesias que deseen una reforma en esta área. Sé que no todos los lectores van a estar de acuerdo con la totalidad de los argumentos que el autor presenta en este libro (aunque realizar una refutación a ellos parece ser una labor titánica, si no imposible, especialmente para los que reconocemos el principio regulador de la adoración), pero estoy seguro de que, a pesar de ello, todo lector hallará gran utilidad, y quizás muchos hasta sean llevados a replantearse su entendimiento acerca de los instrumentos musicales en la adoración, tal como me sucedió a mí. Recomiendo de corazón este libro a todo creyente, y especialmente a los pastores, quienes tienen como su función instruir y guiar a la iglesia en la adoración de Dios.

In Revealing Heaven, Reverend John W. Price makes the case for how near-death experiences can be gifts from God and are fully compatible with Christian spirituality and the Bible. As a pastor open to near-death experiences, he has heard more than 200 personal accounts of this phenomena.Todd Burpo's bestelling book Heaven Is for Real, the story of a young child’s near-death experience, has validated the existence of heaven and of God for many. Yet there are Christians who remain uncomfortable with the idea of near-death experiences; they wonder if these events are in line with the Bible and Christian teaching.In Revealing Heaven: The Christian Case for Near-Death Experiences, Reverend Price shares compelling testimonies that prove that Christians can not only trust near-death experiences as valid and consistent with Biblical teaching, but he demonstrates how they can help us understand death, grief, and what happens after this life is over, and provides ample reasons for us to be open to these amazing stories and to hope for what we’ve always dreamed about.
