]]> The Lord’s Supper https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/the-lords-supper/ Thu, 16 Oct 2025 19:45:03 +0000 https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/the-lords-supper/ In this classic treatise, Graves shows that the Lord’s Supper was instituted for each local assembly, not as a universal sacrament. Drawing from 1 Corinthians and Baptist distinctives, he demonstrates that inter-church communion undermines the very symbolism of one body and one bread. A vital resource for understanding Baptist ecclesiology.

]]> Tithing https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/tithing/ Thu, 16 Oct 2025 19:45:03 +0000 https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/tithing/ First written by the respected theologian A. W. Pink, this Calvary Classics edition revives his clear and convicting teaching on the Christian’s duty to give. Pink explains that tithing is not a relic of the Old Testament but a timeless expression of gratitude and obedience. With practical application and pastoral warmth, Tithing challenges readers to see giving not as loss but as an act of worship that reflects the generous heart of God.

]]> Scriptures Enlighten Catholic Priest https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/scriptures-enlighten-catholic-priest/ Thu, 16 Oct 2025 19:45:02 +0000 https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/scriptures-enlighten-catholic-priest/ After preaching on Mary’s intercession, Chiniquy turns to the Bible and the writings of the early church to verify his message, only to discover that neither supports the worship of Mary. These chapters mark a spiritual turning point as he learns that salvation rests not in Mary’s mercy but in Christ’s finished work on the cross.

]]> Temperance https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/temperance/ Thu, 16 Oct 2025 19:45:02 +0000 https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/temperance/ In Temperance, Chiniquy exposes the destructive influence of alcohol and the hypocrisy of religious leaders who excuse it. His firsthand experiences reveal the moral decay brought by intemperance and the freedom found in biblical sobriety. A timeless call for purity in both life and doctrine.

]]> Intercommunion https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/intercommunion/ Thu, 16 Oct 2025 19:44:56 +0000 https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/intercommunion/ Intercommunion argues that the Lord’s Supper is a local church ordinance, not a denominational or social act. Through Scripture, symbolism, and Baptist history, Graves defends closed communion as consistent with biblical church order.

]]> Communion 1 https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/communion-1/ Thu, 16 Oct 2025 19:44:54 +0000 https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/communion-1/ In these excerpts, Chiniquy reflects on his First Communion and the crushing confusion of being told he was literally eating God. They vividly contrast the superstition of Rome’s “wafer-god” with the simple truth of Scripture. Communion invites readers to see how the doctrine of transubstantiation replaces faith in Christ with ritualistic idolatry.

]]> Doctrine of Repentance https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/doctrine-of-repentance/ Thu, 16 Oct 2025 19:44:54 +0000 https://www.calvarybaptist.pub/product/doctrine-of-repentance/ In The Doctrine of Repentance, Thomas Watson’s timeless words challenge today’s readers to take sin seriously and to see repentance not as a moment of regret but as a lifelong turning of the heart toward God. This annotated edition keeps Watson’s rich language intact while clarifying difficult phrases and adding practical helps from Pastor Ryan Rench. With clear Scripture support and pastoral warmth, the book shows that genuine repentance is both a gift from God and a mark of sincere faith.
