Book Description
This biography of Jesus Christ focuses upon the personal characteristics and traits which He demonstrated to the peoples of ancient Judaea. The author seeks to demystify and clarify the subject, with a rigorous reading of the New Testament lore and other accounts of Jesus. The character of the Son of God was established when He approached others with interest in their life situations, in the words He delivered to them, and the deeds He undertook in life. The author posits that Jesus wanted mankind to arrive at the truth of what God intends for humanity by observing his own personality; He set a thorough example of conduct for all men, of the virtues which believers in the Lord can carry through life. Each quality Christ displays is given its own chapter. The author frequently quotes scripture to help his narration. We discover that Jesus was a candid person; delivering messages with frankness and clarity. He displayed patience, generosity, courage and enthusiasm in his daily life and sermons. Later on the work discusses the connections Jesus had with God; the holiness and reverence for the divinity He displays are significant. Finally the work summarizes the overall greatness of Christ. Charles Edward Jefferson was a clergyman who spent decades preaching in Ohio, writing several books on sermonizing and on various Christian topics.

Excerpt from His Friends: The Story of the Immediate Disciples of Jesus After His Ascension, and Their Letters to the Early Christians Humbly following in the footsteps of the noble evangelist, the editors of his life, encouraged by the extraordinary interest that has been manifested in their arrangement of the gospel story, have enlarged their' work into a series of booklets covering the entire New Testament. The story of Jesus, his life, remains the first of the series; the life and letters of Paul, his great apostle, will be the third; the present volume, his friends, including the rest of the New Testament, will be the second.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Friendship of Jesus: The Secret of a Victorious Life All true friendship breathes the tenderest and most fragrant sentiment, just as the rose exhales perfume; but, like the rose, it must live by the laws of its own nature. We must be true to the laws of psychology, of ethics, and of God's Spirit if we would share with Jesus His Friendship. I have scarcely mentioned the wonderful friend ship between Jesus and His three great apostles, Peter, John and Paul. Should this effort find a place in the hearts of those who read it, I will write again about Jesus and some of His friends. May I here express my deep appreciation of the encouragement and faithful criticism of many friends. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of Dr. J. R. Miller: Jesus and I Are Friends Dr. Miller was too much occupied with things deemed by him more important to give any atten tion to the selection and putting aside of material concerning his life. He was so busy writing and speaking and living and loving, with the shaping of the lives of others in view, that he took no time to think of the world's interest in his life. It never occurred to him that there would be any demand for the story of his life, and he discouraged the efforts of friends who sought to gather material for a biography. Yet Dr. Miller was the author of the truest pos sible description of himself. He did not think of it as a description - in giving it he was only telling the reality of his faith in his Master. But all who knew him agree that the description was true and accurate. He said, Jesus and I are friends. This is the story of the life of Dr. J. R. Miller, told in five words.

Book Description
"His previous books have already gained for Dr. Miller a wide circle of admirers, to whom his latest volume will be especially welcome. The subject of the personal friendships of Jesus Christ is in itself very attractive, and it lends itself with more than usual readiness to Dr. Miller's special style of treatment. The chapters which deal with the relations between Jesus and Peter and the sons of Zebedee and particularly well worth reading, and amply supplied with the pertinent illustration and that close insight into character which always mark Dr. Miller's writings." - The Bookseller, January 8,. 1897 "All the writings of this gifted Pastor and Editor reveal spiritual mindedness, deep experiences, fruitful study of the word and the kindliest interest in others. The theme of this volume would seem to be especially congenial to its author as he shows the 'human heartedness of Jesus.' It may be there are those whose reverence for Christ as divine has made difficult the realization of his sympathy as human. It was never so with me. The larger Christ was always the nearer Christ. Infinitude that has only the dimension of distance from you is no true conception. If there be those, the author fears there are, then this little volume should be a sure corrective. Dr. Miller is peculiarly discriminating in his portrayal of those whom Jesus touched. He prompts us not to deny the fragrant offering of affectionate acknowledgment to those who have loved us - before their burial. Christ's friendships, renewed after he arose, are made to assure us that 'heaven will be a more natural place than we imagine it will be.' The final chapter, on Jesus as a Friend, is richly suggestive of the new type of friendship which Christ has introduced among men, and of the tenderness, patience, gentleness and forgiveness which are its distinctive characteristics." -Wooster Alumni Bulletin, Volume 13, 1898 "In the delightful little book entitled 'Personal Friendships of Jesus,' J. R. Miller, D. D., tells us how this yearning was met, and how the human-heartedness of Jesus shines out in his relations to his family, his disciples and other personal friends. The subject is treated with great thoroughness, including the conditions of friendship with Jesus, the principles upon which he selected his friends, his secret friends, his ministry of love to them in their sorrows, his tender farewell, the character of Jesus as a friend, and the continuation and consummation of friendship, commenced on earth, in the heavenly life. Upon this point Dr. Miller writes with greatness tenderness and beauty: 'Even at the best human friendships only begin in this life; in heaven they will reach their best and holiest possibilities. There are lives which only touch each other in this world and then separate, going their different ways, like ships that pass in the night. There will be time enough in heaven for any such faintest beginnings of friendship to be wrought out in beauty. Friendship with Jesus here touches but the shore of an infinite ocean; in heaven, unhindered, in uninterrupted fellowship, we shall be forever learning more of this love of Christ which passeth knowledge.' Many hearts that have been touched by the sorrow of parting from friends will find joy and consolation in the beautiful thoughts and cheering words of Dr. Miller." -Christian Work: Illustrated Family Newspaper, Volume 63, 1897 1.
