God’s Glory in Man’s Happiness
Author: Francis TaylorPublisher: 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.
The Westminster Confession of Faith and the Cessation of Special Revelation

Pages : 363
Book Description
In the opening chapter of the Confession, the divines of Westminster included a clause that implied that there would no longer be any special immediate revelation from God. Means by which God had once communicated the divine will, such as dreams, visions, and the miraculous gifts of the Spirit, were said to be no longer available. However, many of the authors of the WCF accepted that prophecy continued in their time, and a number of them apparently believed that disclosure of God's will through dreams, visions, and angelic communication remained possible. How is the cessationist clause of WCF 1:1 to be read in the light of these claims? This book reconciles this paradox in a detailed study of the writings of the authors of the Westminster Confession of Faith.
