Produktbeschreibung
Updated to Modern English "Gospel Fear: The Heart Trembling at the Word of God" by Jeremiah Burroughs is a profound exploration of the Christian life that emphasizes the significance of revering God's Word. Burroughs, an esteemed Puritan preacher, illuminates the blessings inherent in a heart that trembles at the Word of God. Through seven sermons, he delves deep into the idea that a heart moved by the Word signifies a blessed frame of spirit, highly valued in the eyes of God. Burroughs begins by defining "trembling at God's Word" not as a physical shudder but as a deep, respectful fear that shapes how believers interact with Scripture. This trembling indicates a reverence that goes beyond mere lip service, showing a genuine submission and humility before God's commands, promises, and threats. The book reveals various reasons why the Word should invoke a trembling response, including its divine origin, its authority, its power to judge, and the rich, divine mysteries it contains. Burroughs argues that such a response is essential for true sanctification and spiritual growth. He makes a compelling case that this fear is not a negative, paralyzing fear but a positive, transforming one that leads to joy, comfort, and assurance in God's promises. Moreover, "Gospel Fear" challenges readers to examine their attitude towards Scripture. It poses tough questions about the nature of their reverence for God's Word. Are they moved by it? Does it lead them to change? This introspective inquiry is aimed at fostering a deeper, more meaningful relationship with God. In a world where God's Word is often taken lightly, Burroughs offers a timely reminder of the weight and significance of Scripture. His passionate pleas for a trembling heart resonate through the centuries, encouraging contemporary readers to rediscover the awe and majesty of God's Word. This book is a call to action-a call to live in a way that truly honors God. It's for anyone seeking to deepen their faith, understand the seriousness of Scripture, and cultivate a heart that trembles at the Word of God, knowing that such a heart is precious in His sight.
