Download or read book God s Glory in Man s Happiness written by Francis Taylor and published by Puritan Publications. This book was released on 2013-02-19 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taylor works from two texts, 1 Corinthians 1:26-29, “For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world…etc.” and 2 Peter 1:10, “Give diligence to make your calling and election sure.” He covers the Apostle’s meaning to the texts, then expounds God’s vocation, God’s election, God’s end and God’s glory. Then in a separate section he explains God’s choice and man’s diligence in that election, as well as sundry applications demonstrating that there is a way to make our calling and election sure by diligence. This is an extremely important treatise on the nature of election and manner in which God chooses some and passes by others. It is equally important having been compiled by a learned and distinguished assembly member on a topic universally believed by the reformers and puritans.

Download or read book The Westminster Confession of Faith and the Cessation of Special Revelation written by Garnet Howard Milne and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the opening chapter of the Confession, the divines of Westminster included a clause that implied that there would no longer be any special immediate revelation from God. Means by which God had once communicated the divine will, such as dreams, visions, and the miraculous gifts of the Spirit, were said to be no longer available. However, many of the authors of the WCF accepted that prophecy continued in their time, and a number of them apparently believed that disclosure of God's will through dreams, visions, and angelic communication remained possible. How is the cessationist clause of WCF 1:1 to be read in the light of these claims? This book reconciles this paradox in a detailed study of the writings of the authors of the Westminster Confession of Faith.

Download or read book An Antidote to Arminianism written by Christopher Ness and published by Great Christian Books. This book was released on 2012-03-24 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An easy to read, but totally devastating attack against the heresy of Arminianism. There was a day when Christians knew the Scriptures well enough that the error of Arminianism was recognized for what it was-a heresy, another gospel-that is no gospel at all. Today, it is not uncommon in churches that are ostensibly Bible-believing and Bible-studying congregations to find sitting in the pews, beside one another, those that confess a biblical belief in God's sovereignty and those that self-identify as Arminians. On top of that there are countless less-knowledgable professors that know nothing of the label and doctrines of Arminianism but nonetheless hold the same man-centered and decisionalistic false belief of salvation. In this work of Ness, these unbiblical concepts are laid bare and exposed for the grave errors that they are. Recommended reading by John Owen, John Gill, and Augustus Toplady.

Download or read book The Gospel Mystery of Sanctification written by Walter Marshall and published by Sovereign Grace Publishers,. This book was released on 2001-10 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gospel Mystery of Sanctification presents the culmination of Puritan thought on living the Christian life. Combining doctrinal precision and pastoral sensitivity, Walter Marshall shows how sanctification is essential to spiritual life, dependent on spiritual union with Jesus Christ, and inseparable though distinct from justification. He shows how holiness involves both the mind and the soul of the believer and that it is the aim of the Christian life. It is no wonder that this book has been reprinted many times throughout the years and received such high praise from leading ministers of the gospel. "The most important book on sanctification ever written." John Murray (1898 1975), professor of systematic theology, Westminster Theological Seminary
