Samuel Rutherford

The Loveliness of Christ (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Like so many saints before him, Samuel Rutherford did his best work while he was imprisoned for the gospel. While in exile from his hometown, he wrote hundreds of letters to his friends and members of his congregation. These letters were treasured up and printed several years after his death in 1661. From this, "the most remarkable series of devotional letters that the literature of the Reformed churches can show," Christians of all walks have drawn strength. The Loveliness of Christ is a collection of short excerpts from these letters "in which some of Rutherford's most helpful thoughts are allowed to stand out in their unadorned wisdom and power. Those familiar with Andrew Bonar s great nineteenth-century collection of the Letters of Samuel Rutherford will feel that this setting of brief quotations makes Rutherford's words sparkle like diamonds on a dark cloth in a jeweller's shop. [We hope that you], in meditating on these pages, will find here help, comfort, wise counsel, and spiritual compass, and to say with Rutherford, 'Every day we may see some new thing in Christ. His love hath neither brim nor bottom'" (Sinclair Ferguson, foreword to previous edition).
