Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seems that the wish to benefit all, and to lavish indiscriminately upon the first comer one’s own gifts, was not a thing altogether commendable, or even free from reproach in the eyes of the many; seeing that the gratuitous waste of many prepared drugs on the incurably-diseased produces no result worth caring about, either in the way of gain to the recipient, or reputation to the would-be benefactor. Rather such an attempt becomes in many cases the occasion of a change for the worse. The hopelessly-diseased and now dying patient receives only a speedier end from the more active medicines; the fierce unreasonable temper is only made worse by the kindness of the lavished pearls, as the Gospel tells us. I think it best, therefore, in accordance with the Divine command, for any one to separate the valuable from the worthless when either have to be given away, and to avoid the pain which a generous giver must receive from one who treads upon his pearl,’ and insults him by his utter want of feeling for its beauty.

Download or read book Supporting the Truth written by Ibn Qayyim al Jawziyyah and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-11-14 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a translation of an indispensable advice concerning "The Obligation of Supporting the Truth" found in the introductory section of the Nūniyyah Poem of Ibn al Qayyim. It includes the synopsis and annotations of the most prolific scholars that explained this poem at length. These particular lines of poetry are found in lines 188-260 of the Qaṣīdah al-Nuniyah. In his commentary of select passages from the Nūniyyah, the great scholar 'Abd al-Raḥmān bin Nāṣir al-Sa'dī characterizes this preliminary advice as follows:"At this point, he [i.e., Ibn al Qayyim] engages in a beneficial introduction and comprehensive advice that every student of knowledge is in need of, regardless of whether his pursuit is for knowledge of the Usūl or knowledge of the Furū'. Furthermore, it should be given precedence over (learning) the etiquette of the scholar and the student. That is because it entails pieces of advice that every person desiring felicity in both worlds is in need of."Similarly, al-Shaykh Muḥammad bin Ṣāliḥ al 'Uthaymīn says about the important advice that is found in this book:"In reality, these are guidelines and if you were to record and take note of these pieces of advice as you come across them, and then transferred them to a special notebook, it would prove to be of a great benefit and reference source for you. That is because they are guidelines that you won't find except in this book."Likewise, the renowned Egyptian scholar, Muḥammad Khalīl Harrās remarked on the preciousness of Ibn al Qayyim's advice. He said:After the author finishes mentioning Jahm's corrupt doctrines and what he had drowned in of misguidance -- on account of "having an aversion to the texts and relegating them to misinterpretation -- he then proceeds with these invaluable pieces of advice for whoever is adamant on achieving salvation from Allah's torment -- with which He threatened every stray renegade."
Download or read book Suffering and the Sovereignty of God written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2006-09-13 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last few years, 9/11, a tsunami, Hurricane Katrina, and many other tragedies have shown us that the vision of God in today's churches in relation to evil and suffering is often frivolous. Against the overwhelming weight and seriousness of the Bible, many Christians are choosing to become more shallow, more entertainment-oriented, and therefore irrelevant in the face of massive suffering. In Suffering and the Sovereignty of God, contributors John Piper, Joni Eareckson Tada, Steve Saint, Carl Ellis, David Powlison, Dustin Shramek, and Mark Talbot explore the many categories of God's sovereignty as evidenced in his Word. They urge readers to look to Christ, even in suffering, to find the greatest confidence, deepest comfort, and sweetest fellowship they have ever known.

Download or read book The Christian In Complete Armour written by William Gurnall and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 852 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a world where war is a persistent reality in media and in film, there is a larger, consequential war being waged everyday that is often neglected: the Spiritual war inside of us. Written in the English Puritan era but just as powerful and inspiring today, William Gurnall's timeless epic The Christian in Complete Armour serves as a beautifully written and action-packed spiritual guidebook A call to arms for Christians, Gurnall's expounded sermons on Ephesians 6:10-20 are as practical as they are illuminating. With stunning prose and page-turning excitement, the battle for the soul and the descriptions of the God-given protections and weapons ascribed to the believer are detailed and explained. Gurnall's masterpiece has been inspiring Christians since the 17th century, and has never been as applicable and urgently needed as the present day. Praise of the work: "If I might read only one book beside the Bible, I would choose The Christian in Complete Armour." -John Newton "Peerless and priceless; every line full of wisdom." -C. H. Spurgeon "A beautiful feature in Gurnall's book is its richness in pithy, pointed, and epigrammatical sayings. You will often find in a line and a half some great truth, put so concisely, and yet so fully, that you really marvel how so much thought could be got into so few words." -J. C. Ryle
