2 PUBLICATIONS. Miraculous or Magical - Guidelines to Testing the Spirits " Many believers are being confused, troubled or misled by spiritual phenomena and charismatic practices which are serving to divide the Church of Jesus Christ. This book offers help with this problem" - Rightly Dividing the Truth- Qualities of a God Bible Interpreter "Biblical Hermeneutics took different turns in the latter centuries of the second millennium. Herein is a guide to the art of sound biblical interpretation. The author outlines the requirements for being a good interpreter of the Word of God through the examples of Daniel, Paul, Matthew and Jesus". The Patmos Scenario- Studies in the Revelation "As an example, it is a thorough interpretation of the book of Revelation. The composition of the technological evolution with the powerful prophecies relating to Jesus' warning to our generation is effectively highlighted here". Command Performance - Christian Discipleship and Biblical Leadership "Here is one more book on the relevant and important subjects of Christian Discipleship and Biblical Leadership. Dr. Colin Warner has both academic qualification as well as field experience.". Models of Church Planting - Mission in Acts of Apostles "The author has gleaned principles from each of the cities and compiled it for the benefit of readers. With great scholarship, the author demonstrates the principles, strategies and methodologies adopted by various pioneers in reaching the twelve cities. It is a literal treat for any one who is interested in urban ministries". Life, Leadership and Love - Structuring a Local Church "Structuring a local church on New Testament lines is no easy task in the current era of multi-denominational thinking. This book is an attempt to bring the local church back to the earliest model described in terms of a New Testament pattern. It deals with the role, organization and activities of the local church. Issues Facing Emerging Churches - In the Light of First Corinthians "It is the author's conviction that nothing much has really changed in church work, because universally human nature is the same as it has always been. This book is meant to help leaders and church members to be more sensitive to the problems their congregation may experience." Parousia Posers Questions on the Second Advent "The author has lectured in a number of churches on the subject of the Second Coming of Christ. It took the form of a number of questions and answers. It was felt by man that these should be published. This book offers therefore sound biblical material in this context". Exegesis and the Preacher - Interpretation and Proclamation. Exegesis and the Preacher focuses more upon helping the preacher as an expositor of the sacred Scriptures. It is an introduction to the subject of preaching and teaching Bible truths in terms of putting sound exegesis into practice. To preach properly and effectively, one needs to know how to uncover and teach Bible truths and publicly proclaim persuasively and authoritatively the message from God. ACADEMIC POSITIONS HELD.
