Edgar Young Mullins Collection (11 vols.)

Edgar Young Mullins penned Why Is Christianity True? with the aim of providing a thorough argument for the validity of the Bible and of Jesus Christ. Although there are many books with such a goal by many different theologians, Mullins had two specific hopes when writing this particular resource: elimination of technical jargon in order to aid comprehension by all who read it, and to present the whole doctrine of Christianity instead of focusing only on certain aspects. This book is an excellent resource for anybody wishing to gain clarity of thought regarding the specifics of the truth behind Christianity.

Mullins was very concerned that the tenets of Baptism be clearly taught. The Axioms of Religion includes information from lectures given by Mullins in England, Missouri, and Virginia on the subject. Focusing mainly on the New Testament, this resource is a valuable look into Baptist doctrine.

As there are currently quite a few Baptist creeds, Mullins' goal was not to add to that number but instead compile existing creeds into a lucid and simplified book that would be useful to laity. Baptist Beliefs gives a broad overview and outline of Baptist doctrine in just over one hundred comprehensive pages.

Freedom and Authority in Religion discusses several opposing viewpoints: that of not putting any authority into Christianity, and that of one-sided authority. Mullins defines the one-sided authority as that which comes only from a narrow scientific or philosophic standpoint, as he urges a more holistic view of authoritative religion.

"The aim of this treatise is twofold: first, to set forth the contents of the Christian religion; and, secondly, to set forth the doctrines of the religion which arise out of it and which are necessary to explain its meaning," Mullins says of The Christian Religion in Its Doctrinal Expressions. A theologically involved resource, this book is thought-provoking and full of rich exegesis.

Comprised of a series of talks given at Camp Zachary Taylor, the original audience for this book was a group of Christian secretaries working with soldiers at the camp. The lectures covered the topics of conversion, repentance, and faith, and resulted in quite a few conversions of soldiers in the United States Army around the time of World War I.

Spiritualism, the belief that the dead communicate with the living, is a much-debated topic of which Edgar Young Mullins has formed strong, Scripturally-based opinions. Dissecting the practice, Mullins discusses the appeal, the theoretical scientific proof, the detriments of such a practice, and what the Bible has to say on the topic.

One of Mullins' most well-known and well-loved books, Christianity at the Crossroads was published in 1920, eight years before the death of its author. Infused with thought-provoking and astute exegesis, this practical book shows Mullins' great wisdom and biblical knowledge regarding the both the Baptist doctrine and everyday Christian living.

Intended as a study guide for personal Bible study or in a classroom setting, Studies in Colossians contains notes for pastors and professors to guide students through the book of Colossians.

Studies in Ephesians is a fantastic complement to Mullins' guide to Colossians. As with Studies in Colossians, it contains a concise study guide as well as review questions and a note to pastors and professors who may be using the resource.
