THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST TO EXEMPLIFY THE EFFICACY OF HIS ATONEMENT, AND TO SPREAD THE KNOWLEDGE OF IT. T TOW strong and significant are the appeals made to the followers of Christ in the Scriptures! "Ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's."l--" Ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, but with the precious blood of Christ."2--"Ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people, that ye should 1 I Cor. vi. 20. a I Pet. i. 18, 19. shew forth the praises of Him who hath called you out of darkness into His marvellous light."1--" I beseech you, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God."2--" And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and your whole spirit, and soul, and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ."8 Such language clearly indicates the costliness of Christ's atonement, and the obligations of His followers to honour it. They have a twofold duty in reference to it-.--first, to exemplify its efficacy; and, secondly, to spread the knowledge of it.' i. In exemplifying its efficacy--that is, its moral and transforming power in them1 I Pet. ii. 9.

"Being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,"1 who "came and preached peace to them that were afar off, and to them that were nigh."2 It was His bequest to His...

Download or read book The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment written by Jeremiah Burroughs and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-11-29 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'I have learned to be content in whatever state] I am'' (Phil. 4:11) Anyone who lacks true contentment may find it in this book. If not, it will be because that one would not follow the very clear and simple instructions given. The teaching is from the Bible, yet it must be described as unique. Nowhere else will you find such unusual, but Biblically authenticated thoughts: He will teach you that contentment lies in subtraction, not in addition; that the ABC's of Christianity are nothing like what you thought them to be; that there is a mystery of contentment, but that once you have learned the way from Christ's word, you will be able to attain such a depth of contentment as you never before dreamed existed. This is a key book for building up Christian maturity. Christian Contentment, what is it? ''It is a sweet, inward heart thing. It is a work of the Spirit indoors. It is a box of precious ointment, very comforting and useful for troubled hearts in times of troubled conditions.

Download or read book Options on Atonement in Christian Thought written by Stephen Finlan and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his previous book, Problems with Atonement, Stephen Finlan compellingly argues that the doctrine of atonement has been more a stumbling block to a true understanding of the relationship between God and humanity than a genuine explanation of how we relate to God and God to us. Options on Atonement reprises these arguments briefly, then looks more closely at the solutions to the problem offered by a variety of modern interpreters. Finlan's focus in this volume is on revelation, on the gradual human absorption of and interpretation of revelation received from God, the maturing of human cultures, and especially the light shed by modern family systems psychology. At a time when public debates rage over the notion of evolution in the natural world, this book asserts that our understanding of divine revelation is likewise subject to evolution. If religion itself does not evolve, the author asserts, we are left only with an unsatisfactory choice: to remain mired in the past, or to repudiate all that is past, including our Scriptures. Will that be our choice? Or can we resolve to examine our traditions, including that of the atonement, in the light of new knowledge? Stephen Finlan chooses to do just that.

Download or read book The Atonement written by R.W. Dale and published by Ravenio Books. This book was released on 2013-11-10 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert William Dale (1829 – 1895) was an English Congregationalist pastor who ministered at Carr's Lane Chapel in Birmingham for over 40 years. His 1875 Lectures on the Atonement have remained in print for almost 150 years. John Stott tells the story of a minister who approached Martyn Lloyd-Jones in the early years of his ministry and observed that the finished work of Christ had little place in his preaching. Lloyd-Jones immediately visited a used bookstore and asked for any volumes on the atonement. The owner brought out James Denney's The Death of Christ and R. W. Dale's The Atonement. To the concern of his wife, Lloyd-Jones locked himself in his room, so absorbed in these two books he refused even to eat. When he emerged several days later, he exclaimed that he had found "the real heart of the gospel and the key to the inner meaning of the Christian faith."

Book excerpt: The death of Christ, the incarnate Son of God, is the most remarkable event in all history. Its uniqueness was demonstrated in various ways. Centuries before it occurred it was foretold with an amazing fullness of detail, by those men whom God raised up in the midst of Israel to direct their thoughts and expectations to a fuller and more glorious revelation of Himself. The prophets of Jehovah described the promised Messiah, not only as a person of high dignity and as one who should perform wondrous and blessed miracles, but also as one who should be "despised and rejected of men," and whose labors and sorrows should be terminated by a death of shame and violence. In addition, they affirmed that He should die not only under human sentence of execution, but that "it pleased the Lord to bruise Him; HE hath put Him to grief" (Isa. 53:10), yea, that Jehovah should cry, "Awake, O sword, against My Shepherd, and against the man that is My Fellow, saith the Lord of hosts: smite the Shepherd" (Zech. 13:7).
