Produktbeschreibung
This classic Bible Handbook, compiled by Stephen N. Haskell, contains more than 220 Bible studies organized by topic. Haskell, who recognized the call of God early in life and responded with all his heart, gave himself particularly to the study of God's word. During the 1800's and early 1900's, Haskell served as a preacher, author, publisher and ultimately, as a soul winner-leading hundreds, if not thousands, to know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. The solid biblical foundation of Haskell's four books reflect his lifelong pursuit of understanding the Scriptures. In "The Cross and Its Shadow," Haskell addressed the Jewish sanctuary service and the meaning behind it, in an easy-to-understand, Bible-based manner. In "The Story of the Seer of Patmos", Haskell delved deeply into the life of John the Beloved, as well as the book of Revelation. "The Story of Daniel the Prophet," like the book about John the Revelator, is built around the biblical story of a prophet, together with the prophecies in the book that bear his name. In the Bible Handbook, Haskell presents a wide range of biblical subjects arranged in a topical manner. Topics such as the ministry of angels, reliability of the Word of God, the Second Coming, signs of the times, modesty in dress, the law of God, temperance in diet, and biblical business principles are each addressed with a list of summarized Bible texts. The result of years of immersion in God's Holy Word, Haskell's book is a "must have" for any serious Bible student. Containing outlines for numerous Bible studies, it offers a serious "leg up" on a number of important topics that are relevant-even critical-to living as a Christian today.
Autorenporträt
Stephen Haskell was described as being a large, slow-moving man who was very deliberate-yet somehow irresistible in speech. He had a flowing beard, a shovel-tipped nose, and his hair, which became gray and then white as he aged, was described as a "luxuriant mane." Those who heard Pastor Haskell speak said that, in manner and speech, he was a typical old-fashioned New Englander. His English was not always perfect, and his Yankee dialect never left him, but his earnest, kindly smile always made friends. A fatherly figure, Haskell earned the affection of thousands of spiritual children. He grew with the years-alternatively serving as a preacher, executive, author, and publisher. But most importantly, Haskell was a lay leader for the church, using his talents for literature, correspondence, and personal missionary work. An accomplished organizer and administrator, Pastor Haskell served for years as a conference president within the Seventh-day Adventist Church. At one point, he even served as president of the New England and California conference simultaneously! In 1889, Pastor Haskell heard a talk given by Ellen White in which she admonished ministers that there should be "more teaching and less preaching" in Adventist camp meetings. After considering the counsel, Pastor Haskell developed a method of "Bible readings" which came to be known as "fireside preaching." The idea caught on like wildfire, as Christians around the country undertook training to hold home Bible readings. One institute in Battle Creek grew rapidly by studying the Bible Reading Plan. Under the leadership of Pastor Haskell, began with 300 students and ended with 1,000. Today the Bible reading plan continues to be one of the most successful means of winning people to the truth. Today, that book is published as the "Bible Handbook." Haskell's other works include "The Cross and it's Shadow," "The Story of the Prophet Daniel," and "The Story of the Seer of Patmos."
