Download or read book The Unsearchable Riches of Christ written by Thomas Brooks and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2017-08-29 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What did Paul mean when he referred in His epistle to the Ephesians to the unsearchable riches of Christ? And what did he had in mind when he used the term "riches"? In the end, whatever these unsearchable riches might mean, who benefits from them and how can a Christian have them? If you would take up this book and start reading it, you would be surprised seeing that the author started his wonderful analysis on this topic by speaking of... humbleness! He picks up humbleness as the starting point in his exposition on Ephesians 3:8 because that was the apostle's attitude of heart when he started to write on the subject of the riches of Christ! Then he shows how this is the peculiar character of the souls upon whom Christ bestows His spiritual riches. Brooks then opens the Fountain "of the greatest riches, the best riches, the choicest riches" - namely the Person and work of Jesus Christ. "In Him we find overflowing the riches of justification, the riches of sanctification, the riches of consolation, and the riches of glorification.." This book has been originally published in 1655. Current edition has been proofread, typeset for eBook readers, and slightly updated for modern readers. About the author: Thomas Brooks (1608-1680) was an English nonconformist Puritan preacher and author. He wrote extensively and with a keen eye on devotional Christian life. Brooks died after over 40 years of Gospel ministry, in 1680.

Download or read book All Loves Excelling written by John Bunyan and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-28 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Limited Time Promotional Offer All Loves Excelling All Loves Excelling is John Bunyan's sermon on Ephesians 3:17-18, 'That ye may be able to comprehend with all saints, what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge.' It was first titled 'The Saints' Knowledge of Christs Love' and is worthy of being ranked alongside Sibbes and deals with a much neglected subject area. From The Forward: This is a new edition of John Bunyan's treatise on Ephesians 3:17-18 which he himself prepared for the press. It is taken from the second volume of Bunyan's works (George Offor edition) which was re-published in 1991. The text remains largely unaltered but slight adjustments have been made in order to accommodate the arrangement of the material into chapters. Even these divisions, however, correspond to Bunyan's own layout of his material. The subject matter of this work which was first preached, is greatly needed today. On the one hand, experiences of the Spirit are being claimed from which the glory of the redeemer and the wonder of his love are quite absent, while on the other, an almost total attention to the understanding and practising of scripture truth is having the effect of marginalising the experiential element in true, spiritual knowledge. Bunyan's description of Christs' love to believers and how they ought to know it, cuts in both the above-mentioned directions. From some 440 Bible references he shows how knowing Christs' love is the message of Scripture and also the essence of heaven, partly possessed and expressed on earth. Those who know it are rich beyond measure and they are the people who 'sweeten the churches and bring glory to God and to religion'. About John Bunyan: John Bunyan (1628-1688) was born at Elstow, England, about a mile from Bedford, and became one of the most influential authors of the seventeenth century. Few writers in history have left such a wealth of Christ-centered writings. Bunyan's moving conversion is recorded in his Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners. While walking the streets of Bedford, Bunyan heard "three or four poor women" sitting at a door, "talking about the new birth, the work of God in their hearts, and the way by which they were convinced of their miserable state by nature. They told how God had visited their souls with His love in Christ Jesus, and with what words and promises they had been refreshed, comforted, and supported against the temptations of the devil. From these godly women Bunyan learned to despise sin and to hunger for the Savior. Later, while passing into the fields, he recounts, "This sentence fell upon my soul, 'Thy righteousness is in heaven'... for my righteousness was Jesus Christ Himself, the same yesterday, today, and forever." Then "his chains fell off," and he went home rejoicing. Calling to Preach and ArrestIn 1655, Bunyan was called to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Bunyan was arrested November 12, 1660, for preaching without the approval of the Anglican Church. He was charged with "teaching men to worship God contrary to the law" and was in jail more than twelve years. His most well-known work, The Pilgrim's Progress, was written while in the Bedford jail. During Bunyan's lifetime there were 100,000 copies circulated in the British isles, besides several editions in North America. It has been continuously in print since its first printing. Bunyan's remarkable imagery was firmly rooted in the biblical doctrines of man's fall, grace, imputation, justification, and the atonement.

Download or read book Discovering the Glorious Love of Christ written by John Durant and published by Puritan Publications. This book was released on 2021-03-15 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Durant, in this wonderful work on making a discovery of Christ’s love to his people, plumbs the depths of Christ’s transcendent love from Ephesians 3:19, “And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.” He will explain what it means that this love is transcendent. It is a preeminent and supreme love, lying beyond the ordinary range of perception. Can such a study be accomplished adequately in light of Christ’s infinite benevolence to his people? Durant will take a course to outline and explain four main parts to his overall subject demonstrating how the love of Christ passes knowledge as it, 1. includes the truth and reality of Christ’s love to the saints. 2. As it concludes the height and royalty, or transcendency of that love. 3. As it holds out the apostle’s desire that the Ephesians might know both. And, 4. As it contains the grounds of keeping up the Ephesian’s hearts from fainting at Paul’s tribulations, which is the drift and scope that Paul strives for in them. In exploring this transcendent love of Christ to the soul, he affirms that it is so high there is no reaching of it, so deep that there is no sounding of it, so long that it exceeds measuring, and so broad that there is no comprehending it. Yet, believers are beckoned to strive to understand, to apprehend it, in its communication to their heart, soul and mind. In fact, when they have finished reading this work by Durant, if they have soaked in even a measure of what he explains, they will come away with being lovesick for the Savior.

What a high relationship is that of a son, and what privileges it brings! What care and tenderness the son expects from his Father, and what love the Father feels towards the son.

Download or read book Understanding and Knowing God written by St Petersbell Jigo and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2013-09 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the overwhelming influence of God's love that draw men to understand, by the superior intelligence of inspired faith, the need to escape from soul-damning attitudes such as the vanity of basking in the deceitful illumination of human wisdom, power and riches. We escape via revelation knowledge of God in Jesus Christ- the ultimate expression of everything that could possibly be understood and known of God consisting in Loving-kindness (which entails mercy and grace); His Judgment (in that when God judged humanity's sins in Christ and acquitted us sinners, justice was served fully. And any man who appropriates this verdict, has escaped the dreadful judgment of the final day); and Righteousness, which reveals God, illogically, as the justifier of the ungodly in the sense that righteousness is the gift of God's lifestyle freely imputed to men who dare receive it by faith in Jesus Christ, which would in turn trigger a demonstration, in the receiver of the free gift, the power and immortal glory of God's unending life, by the Spirit of grace!St. PetersBell Jigo walks in a mighty anointing by a gift of unusual faith in the God she fondly describes as "Almighty in loving man!" At the early age of 7, God showed her the Wonder of "The rainbow-encircled Throne of God" thus maturing her tender heart to understand the authority of God's compassion for hurting humanity and has thus driven her to incite men to dare hope and trust in God. The one cry of her heart is "O, LORD, let the tears of humanity stop at my appearing." She articulates that desire through spreading the Gospel of the grace of Jesus Christ, and philanthropy. St. PetersBell lives in Nigeria with her husband Jerry and their daughter, Holy.
Download or read book The Love of Christ written by Richard Sibbes and published by Puritan Paperbacks. This book was released on 2022-11-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Puritan John Dod wrote that this book is 'so full of heavenly treasure, and such lively expressions of the invaluable riches of the love of Christ' that it kindles 'in the heart all heavenly affections unto Jesus Christ'. Indeed it does! And that was very much what Richard Sibbes (1577-1635) was about in all his ministry. The Love of Christ is a series of sermons preached on Song of Solomon 4:16-6:3. For Sibbes, this Bible book 'is nothing else but a plain demonstration and setting forth of the love of Christ to his church, and of the love of the church to Christ'. The Song of Solomon does not simply mouth a doctrine: its sensuous imagery sings its message. It is as if this love story is played on violins. The reader is thus brought, not simply to understand, but to taste and share the delights of the lovers. This is precisely what Christ's people need, as Sibbes knew: it is not enough to be aware of Christ's love; we must sense, grasp and enjoy it. Only then will we truly love the Lord our God with all our hearts. That is one reason why so many avoid books like this one: they want information, and they want it fast. But Sibbes intends to affect you, to hold your eyes on Jesus that you might develop a stronger appetite for him. Such work cannot be fast work, but it is profoundly transforming.

Download or read book Christ s Limitless Riches Are Unsearchable written by Bill Vincent and published by Rwg Publishing. This book was released on 2023-06-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no way we will ever be able to fully comprehend all of the riches of the Lord's wealth. For more than a week, I've been pondering about this verse: "This gift has been given to me, who am less than the least of all saints, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable treasures of Christ" (Ephesians 3:8 KJV). Christ's unsearchable, endless, limitless, and mysterious riches are unfathomable, limitless, and mysterious. This is the true beauty of the mysterious. The term "mystery" is one of my favorites because it implies secrecy. It suggests that we have been given the privilege of searching God's heart for revelation. This verse, along with these concepts, has piqued my interest and left me wanting more. Proverbs 25:2 (NIV) It is the glory of God to keep anything hidden, but it is the honor of kings to discover what is hidden. It goes without saying that this secret of the boundless richness of ourselves and what we are alludes to the mystery of the Gospel. Consider the whole extent of the cross's wealth and understanding. Grace will never come to an end. It piques my interest and makes me want to know more. Is it possible for us to truly realize that He is thinking about us? We have been born again (reborn) and have been gifted with every spiritual blessing that Christ has to offer. Consider the splendor of the resurrection-walking with God and doing wonders. These are just a few of the great mysteries of the gospel, and there are many others. You could spend all of eternity studying the beauty, mystery, power, mercy, and majesty of the cross, and still not be able to comprehend everything! It is completely inaccessible! We also have the Mind of Christ with us at all times. That God wishes to share His mysteries, including the secrets of the universe, with us is even more incredible. This is the ultimate goal of closeness and friendship with His Spirit, according to the Bible. In us, we have the Spirit of wisdom and insight who will convey the truths of the Gospel as it is revealed to them. Wow!!
