The Westminster Standards (The Westminster Confession and accompanying Shorter and Larger Catechisms) are the high-water mark of the Historic Christian Faith since they build upon the preceding councils and creeds of the Church while responding to the challenges of the Reformation. A thoughtful study of the Standards requires penetrating the material at the level of challenges and responses to the Faith.

The Epistle to the Hebrews: Christ Is Superior in Every Way-Foundation to Persevere in Biblical Faith is a Doxological Reformed exposition of the central themes of Hebrews and the hope of salvation in its fullest sense. This commentary is written for those seeking to build on a strong and lasting foundation to advance the work of the kingdom of God.

The history of philosophy is beset by unresolved disputes. These disputes are passed down from generation to generation as problems to be solved. If not solved, they engender skepticism. Philosophical disputes, posed as problems, can be resolved or dissolved if we first acknowledge that some things are clear to reason.

The Word was made flesh and dwelt among men in the person of Jesus Christ. Jesus was born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. He rose again on the third day, ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God. The Logos, resisted and rejected as reason, as general revelation, and as special (redemptive) revelation, comes once more to man and is crucified. He came to accomplish redemption and now rules to apply redemption. Jesus came as Messiah, full of grace and truth. It is by His life and death that this grace and truth come.

The unity of the faith is about the basic beliefs of the Christian faith—what is foundational—about God and man and good and evil. The unity of the faith is not about making converts. It is not about what is fundamental for initial conversion, for being saved, or for entering into the kingdom of God.

The Biblical Worldview: Creation, Fall, Redemption is the foundational and, therefore, the inaugural book in the Doxological Reformed Sermon Series. Creation-fall-redemption are the foundational themes of biblical revelation and are best introduced in the first three chapters of Genesis. The truth of special revelation is encapsulated in an organic seed form, a unity that grows, encompassing all essential elements in summary.

Philosophical Foundation argues for clarity over and against meaninglessness, which is implicit in various forms of skepticism and fideism. Throughout the book, critical analysis is applied to unexamined assumptions in the areas of metaphysics and ethics in order to address long-standing disputes.

The main focus of Dr. Gangadean's work is the good as the knowledge of God and the goal of the Earth being filled with the knowledge of the glory of God. He argues that for this goal to be achieved, there must first be unity in the church that the world might believe. But, for unity in the church, there must be a shared foundation. Dr. Gangadean has paved the way in showing the philosophical, theological, and historical foundations for the Christian faith with the hope that others, by the grace of God, might build a lasting culture, a city with foundations.

The Logos Papers is a collection of work from Dr. Gangadean, reflecting his teaching in philosophy, religion, and the humanities in the academy, in theology at Logos Theological Seminary, and pastoral teaching in the church. In unison with his other publications, it fundamentally calls for a focus on foundation from the Logos. The Logos is the eternal word of God in its fullness, who makes God fully known.
