An Exposition on the Shorter Catechism, What is the Chief End of Man?

An Exposition on the Shorter Catechism

What is the Chief End of Man?

Alexander Whyte

‘This is an unusual work in that its gifted author quotes from writers of opposing traditions to amplify his understandings of the text. His language is simple and direct, and the book is strongly bound and clearly printed. For good measure, the publishers have included the entire Westminster Confession and Larger Catechism.'

Thomas Boston, His Life & Times

Thomas Boston

His Life & Times

Andrew Thomson

"The author, a godly Scottish biographer of Owen and Baxter, here portrays the gentle country pastor whose exemplary devotionto his calling and Hebrew scholarship and linguistic ability added strength to his advocacy of the theology of the Reformers, Puritans and Covenanters, when this was being undermined by the Moderates of his day. It is so good to find a biographer whose affection for his subject does not mar his judgement, but warms the reader's heart. Thomson's fine biography confirms John ‘Rabbi' Duncan's description of Boston as a ‘commonplace genius.' With the emphasis on genius."

John Owen

This beautifully produced reprint, with translations of Owen's Latin by Angus Morrison and a summary introduction by Sinclair Ferguson is an honour to its publishers. With key passages highlighted, unfamiliar terms explained, and plenty of 'light' between headed paragraphs, it is a joy to read. Its contents are beyond recommendation. The divine glory of our Saviour leaves us 'lost in wonder, love and praise.'

What Is God?, An investigation of the perfections of God?s nature

What Is God?

An investigation of the perfections of God?s nature

Robert L. Reymond

"Deploring current ‘rampant theological illiteracy', Prof. Reymond directs us in an enthralling way to the one who alone can give us such a knowledge. His remarks are calculated to stir up adoring wonder at God's glorious greatness. Clearly bathed in prayer, each lecture is preceded and closed with prayer. When the Spirit Himself breathes through each exposition and application, the reader will long to see God as He is; know Him as he/she is known; love, honour and obey him as he deserves, and weep over his/her ignorance and trivial thoughts of him. In his passage through the series, the author does not hesitate to expose and condemn the false doctrines of God held by Romanism, Judaism and Islam. An Excellent Study."

Confident, Why we can trust the Bible

Confident

Why we can trust the Bible

Daniel Strange and Michael Ovey

... truly refreshing to read such a book that does not compromise one bit on the historic Christian view of the Scriptures as the Word of God. Too often today preachers seem to apologise for the Bible, Strange and Ovey do no such thing. There is no compromising with postmodernism, just a straightforward presentation of why the Bible is the word of God and what that means for us.

The Unheeded Christ

Jesus demands Serious obedience

David Cook

... Cook says that the one who hears the Word and puts it into practice is wise, while the one who hears does not, in prayerful dependence on God, is self deceived. Are we so familiar with the words of Jesus that we fail to obey His commands? This little book, simply written, is a real challenge to all of us, of whatever age. Let us not rob God of his glory.
