Thomas Doolittle (1632–1707) was a faithful servant of Jesus Christ and preacher of the Gospel, whose preaching and writing were used to awaken many sinners to the religious business of eternal life and eternal death. This work really needs no introduction; it would be enough just letting Rev. Doolittle loose on your soul. It is a puritan gem, few of which exist and have been republished in this format. This treatise was originally a series of sermons preached to his congregation, which he then took and combined into the present treatise. There are 8 sermons, each building upon the former, and all surrounding the need to hasten and come to Jesus Christ quickly. They are succinct, biblicall...
What does it truly mean to be "with" someone? Simple in concept, but when it comes to our spiritual connection "with Jesus," the idea expands into new and meaningful dimensions. This work, "Being with Jesus," investigates this intricate aspect of faith, exploring Scriptures across both the Old and New Testaments to shed light on what being in genuine fellowship with Christ entails. There is no halfway commitment here; being "with Jesus" is an all-in-or-nothing experience. In an unpredictable world, distancing oneself from Him, even slightly, can be dangerous—a lapse in faith that could have eternal consequences. But fear not. Within these pages, you will find both reassurance and inspirati...
Exodus 15:11 says, “Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?” Here Bolton draws the truth that our wonderful God does wonderful things for his church and people. God does not only do wonders, but great wonders (Ps. 136:4). No, mighty wonders (Dan. 4:3). He does amazing, astonishing wonders for his church and his people. What are these? How does he do them? When does he do them? Will he do them for us? It is the church’s duty to understand God’s glory and his wonders; and make known his glory and his wonders to all people. But to declare it we must understand it, and in understanding it, such compels us t...
The title of this work, “Almost a Christian” is drawn from Mead’s main text, “Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian,” (Acts 26:28). This statement by Agrippa is the foundation on which the entire treatise revolves. What does it mean to be “almost a Christian?” How far can a man or woman go, how far can a teenager or child go, that they actually fall short of salvation? How far may a man, woman, or child run the race of the Christian, and yet not run as to obtain their end? It is, unfortunately, a sad consequence of so many people throughout history who have entered eternity unaware of their present danger. Mead warns and directs every professing Christian to consider what...
Covenant Theology systematizes the biblical information concerning the manner in which God saves sinners through Jesus Christ. It places the Bible into a covenantal framework that makes biblical sense. The Bible speaks of salvation in terms of “covenant.” God is a covenant God who saves His people through covenants. The three main theological covenants of the Bible are the Covenant of Redemption, the Covenant of Works and the Covenant of Grace. These are theological terms that are packed with biblical information dealing with the way God saves sinners. When someone asks, “How does God save people?” the answer lies within the framework of Covenant Theology. So, it is the intention of this work to unpack those terms and make the information in them accessible to the reader in a clear, accurate and biblically helpful manner that serves as an introduction to these theologically rich ideas. After this simple overview, his newly published work “Covenant Theology Made Easy” is the next book to read.
Thomas Case sets forth Leviticus 26:25, “And I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my covenant.” He explains how it comes to pass that covenant violation is a matter of high quarrel between God and his people. He shows “covenant” in its nature, matter, form, parties and end. He clearly explains that such a violation (to break covenant with God or to lie in taking an oath or vow) is seen in three ways: contemptuous refusing, graceless profaning, and treacherous deceiving. The reasons he gives of such a quarrel is the contempt of God’s holy ordinances and of holiness itself; gross ignorance under the glorious light of the Gospel; unfruitfulness under the mea...
This book is taken from McMahon's larger work: The Two Wills of God: Does God Really Have Two Wills, which was a Ph.D. dissertation of over 800 pages. In this newly revised concise form, McMahon has updated and rewritten key parts to this vital work, and removed extraneous portions in order to explain how the student of the bible should understand and hermeneutically study the will of God. What biblical doctrine is more important than knowing what God’s will is for our lives? “The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law,” (Deut. 29:29). The theological subject of...
In this masterful work, Brinsley demonstrates both the doctrinal and exegetical nature of baptism, and the practical side of baptism. He says, "They to whom belongs the kingdom of God, who are subjects, and members of the kingdom of grace, and heirs of the kingdom of glory, they have right to this seal of the covenant, by which this their interest may be confirmed and sealed up to them." Where in this meticulous statement do we find the phrase "baptism" or "infant baptism" or for that matter, any hint of baptism of any kind? This exquisite statement is exactly the same idea that covenant theologians have, for centuries, biblically demonstrated and expounded upon in order to confirm to the pe...
In this wonderful treatment of order and structure in communion with God, “Spiritual Logic” aids the reader in understanding that there is a logical order to the way one prays and thinks about their time of devotions. God is a God of logic, and so, why would someone not use logic in order to “order their prayers?” Harrison is going to take you down a logical road of gaining some hints and helps to your personal devotional life. He will aid you in overcoming an inept prayer life to make your conversations with God run deeper. He deals with a number of preliminary aspects that serve as hindrances to good devotions, such as unacquaintedness with the Lord, a sense of more than ordinary u...
Williams’ first piece on The Danger of Not Reforming Known Evils, is a master-exhortation in calling the wayward church, those professing they have been effectually called, to reform those things in their midst that need correcting. People who have been changed by the Spirit desire holiness. If the people of Christ’s church are inwardly changed, why would they not want to change and reform those things that are amiss among them? In such people there would be a great inexcusableness to them for being a knowing people and yet refusing to be reformed. And if they do not see that they have need of reforming those things that are amiss, what does that say about them? Or, even worse, what if t...
