Author: Francis Taylor Publisher: Puritan Publications ISBN: 1938721969 Category : Religion Languages : en Pages : 202
Book Description
Taylor works from two texts, 1 Corinthians 1:26-29, “For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world…etc.” and 2 Peter 1:10, “Give diligence to make your calling and election sure.” He covers the Apostle’s meaning to the texts, then expounds God’s vocation, God’s election, God’s end and God’s glory. Then in a separate section he explains God’s choice and man’s diligence in that election, as well as sundry applications demonstrating that there is a way to make our calling and election sure by diligence. This is an extremely important treatise on the nature of election and manner in which God chooses some and passes by others. It is equally important having been compiled by a learned and distinguished assembly member on a topic universally believed by the reformers and puritans. This is not a scan or facsimile, has been updated in modern English for easy reading and has an active table of contents for electronic versions.

Book Description
"The Excellency of Christ" was preached in Northampton, Massachusetts by Jonathan Edwards and printed in 1738. This sermon explains Christ's excellency in terms of almost contradictory conjunctions such as Christ being a lion and also a lamb at the same time. In the APPLICATION the reader is exhorted to love and embrace Christ as friend, portion and Savior because of His many excellencies.

Author: John MacArthur Publisher: Moody Publishers ISBN: 1575675951 Category : Religion Languages : en Pages : 246
Book Description
Jesus' first recorded sermon in the Bible is a blueprint for being happy here on earth. And though His definition contains no prescriptions for acquiring cars, homes, or savings, it does require transformation and obedience. MacArthur examines Jesus' timeless definition of happiness, and explains that our reward for following Jesus' plan is citizenship in the kingdom of God- and an abiding joy that can never be taken away. Study guide and review included for individual or group study.

Book Description
The author of Desiring God reveals the biblical evidence to help us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him. Includes a study guide for individual and small-group use. Isn’t it true—we really don’t know someone until we understand what makes that person happy? And so it is with God! What does bring delight to the happiest Being in the universe? John Piper writes, that it’s only when we know what makes God glad that we’ll know the greatness of His glory. Therefore, we must comprehend “the pleasures of God.” Unlike so much of what is written today, this is not a book about us. It is about the One we were made for—God Himself. In this theological masterpiece—chosen by World Magazine as one of the 20th Century’s top 100 books, John Piper reveals the biblical evidence to help us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him. Then we will be able to drink deeply—and satisfyingly—from the only well that offers living water. What followers of Jesus need now, more than anything else, is to know and love—behold and embrace—the great, glorious, sovereign, happy God of the Bible. “This is a unique and precious book that everybody should read more than once.” —J.I. PACKER, Regent College, Vancouver, British Columbia

Book Description
Don't you just want to be happy? Why does it seem so hard sometimes? Perhaps we struggle to consistently live with joy because we do not consistently live with purpose. God made you for a specific reason, and until you embrace his mission for your life, the roller coaster ride of emotions will just keep going. Happiness, purpose, and freedom are available, but it all depends on intertwining your good with God's glory. God's plan for our joy is not tied to life events but to the life of Christ. Intertwined is meant to dust off the cobwebs of the most profound phrase ever given to humanity, "The glory of God." When we rediscover what this means, we have rediscovered the path to everything good.
