Creation Scientists Visit Soviet Union
By Editorial Staff
Published December 2007
Spiritual discussions become a hot topic among Soviet intellectuals
SANTEE, California (FR) – A team of four scientists from the United States recently spent two weeks in the Soviet Union discussing their views on creation vs. evolution with many Soviet organizations.
Dr. Duane Gish, Vice-President the Institute for Creation Research, Roger Oakland, a creationist lecturer, Eugene Grossman, from the Slavic Gospel Association, and Dale Mason, from Films for Christ presented creationism to top Soviet intellectuals.
A number of Soviet groups, including the Institute of Scientific Atheism, the Institute of Science and Philosophy and the Darwin Museum, held discussions with the American creationists.
How did the Soviets receive their views?
According to Roger Oakland: “Many of the Soviet scientists were publicly willing to express that they believed Darwinian evolution was bankrupt. Many of the questions in our round-table discussions reflected their desire to know more about spiritual things, rather than scientific things.
The Soviets have invited the Americans to return before the year’s end.

The Beast of Revelation: Identified (DVD)
Who is the dreaded beast of Revelation?

Historical footage and other graphics are used to illustrate the lecture Dr. Gentry presented at the 1999 Ligonier Conference in Orlando, Florida. It is followed by a one-hour question and answer session addressing the key concerns and objections typically raised in response to his position.

Ideal for group meetings, personal Bible study — for anyone who wants to understand the historical context of John’s famous letter “… to the seven churches which are in Asia.” (Revelation 1:4)

Amazing Grace: The History and Theology of Calvinism (DVD)
Just what is Calvinism?
Does this teaching make man a deterministic robot and God the author of sin? What about free will? If the church accepts Calvinism, won’t evangelism be stifled, perhaps even extinguished? How can we balance God’s sovereignty and man’s responsibility? What are the differences between historic Calvinism and hyper-Calvinism? Why did men like Augustine, Luther, Calvin, Spurgeon, Whitefield, Edwards and a host of renowned Protestant evangelists embrace the teaching of predestination and election and deny free will theology?
This is the first video documentary that answers these and other related questions. Hosted by Eric Holmberg, this fascinating three-part, four-hour presentation is detailed enough so as to not gloss over the controversy. At the same time, it is broken up into ten “Sunday-school-sized” sections to make the rich content manageable and accessible for the average viewer.

Martin Luther: 1953 Classic (DVD)
Special 50th Anniversary edition
The dramatic classic film of Martin Luther’s life was released in theaters worldwide in the 1950s and was nominated for an Academy Award. A magnificent depiction of Luther and the forces at work in the surrounding society that resulted in his historic reforming efforts, this film traces Luther’s life from a guilt-burdened monk to his eventual break with the Roman Catholic Church.

This historical epic captures the life and times of the greatest figure of the Protestant Reformation with depth and clarity, while giving a glimpse at the private man in the eye of the storm.
