 click for details | | DOGMATIC THEOLOGY (THREE VOLUMES IN ONE) William G.T. Shedd "William G. T. Shedd's Dogmatic Theology is a classic," writes Alan W. Gomes, editor of this new edition. "It is a profound work that sets forth the deepest themes of religion with a grandeur and majesty of expression that has rarely been equaled and that never will be outdated." Gomes considers Dogmatic Theology "one of the finest theological systems ever produced." Shedd's discussion of some topics is, writes Gomes, "unequaled by anything produced by modern evangelicals." For example: - The Trinity - The two natures of Christ - The nature of divine justice and atonement - The rational argument for hell Shedd wrote Dogmatic Theology with the prayer that it would help "to strengthen the believer's confidence in [divine] revelation and to incline the unbeliever to exercise faith in it." "Dogmatic Theology can serve as a powerful floodlight to lay bare some of the theological blind spots plaguing today's evangelical church," writes Gomes. "Modern evangelical systems tend to be weaker precisely at those points were Shedd's is most robust." ENDORSEMENTS “Reading Shedd is like discovering a family heirloom in the attic. By making him available again to a wide audience, the editor, Alan Gomes, has rendered a great service. Gomes has actually improved Shedd’s classic by taking material from the third somewhat ‘miscellaneous’ volume and inserting it into the body of the work. Many other helps (viz., glossaries, clear notations, illuminating editorial comments) make this the best edition of this work. If the questions of the authority of Scripture, God’s omniscience and omnipotence, human helplessness, the substitutionary atonement, justification, the scope of salvation, and the doctrine of endless punishment are as fiercely contested in our day as in Shedd’s, we will find Dogmatic Theology as relevant as ever.” —Michael S. Horton, Westminster Theological Seminary in California “The reissuing of Shedd’s Dogmatic Theology occasions pure joy for all who are devoted to biblically sound and historically alert theology. Here they will encounter an energetic and well-stocked mind laboring diligently to perceive the truths of Scripture, chart their interrelations, and follow their implications through high and reasoned speculation. Alan Gomes’s introduction—itself an inviting invitation to the delights of historical and systematic theology—identifies not only the peculiar strengths of Shedd’s work, but also ways it can correct many errors of more recent theology. The English translations of Shedd’s many untranslated quotations enhance the work’s accessibility, as do the glossaries, which by themselves may instruct readers in theological terminology and biography alike. An eminently useful publication and a significant service to the church.” —E. Calvin Beisner, Knox Theological Seminary “Since its publication more than one hundred years ago, Shedd’s Dogmatic Theology has held a place of honor among the magisterial theological works of the Christian faith. God has always provided his church with good biblical theology for its nourishment and protection. This blessed provision continues in this new edition of Shedd’s classic work. The well-conceived enhancements provided by Alan Gomes greatly enrich the usefulness of this work over the previous edition, opening it up to all thoughtful readers.” —Robert L.

 click for details | | CALVINISM: Pure & Mixed- A Defense of the Westminster Standards William G.T. Shedd (1820-1894) Revision (or evasion) of doctrinal standards has been a destructive influence in church life over the last one hundred years or so. W.G.T. Shedd witnessed such a trend in the Northern Presbyterian Church of his own day with regard to The Westminster Confession of Faith. Calvinism: Pure and Mixed expresses the reason for his opposition to that trend. Calvinism: Pure and Mixed is virtually a defense of the reformed faith against many of the most common criticisms levelled against it. W.G.T. Shedd (1820-1894) began his Preface with these striking words- "The object of this work is to define and defend the tenets of Calvinism in their original purity and self-consistence, as distinguished from proposed modifications of them for the purpose of an alleged improvement. It has grown out of the proposal introduced into the Northern Presbyterian Church, to revise the Westminster Standards. It contains the substance of a pamphlet which the author published in opposition to this proposal when it was first made, together with discussions of several important subjects that have subsequently come up for examination during the controversy in the Church. Of these, Preterition, Common and Special Grace, Original Sin, Infant Salvation, the 'Larger Hope', and the Inerrancy of Scripture, are the most prominent...

 click for details | | SERMONS TO THE NATURAL MAN William G.T. Shedd This 430 page book contains 20 sermons to the unconverted man. In the words of A.A. Hodge: "Dr. Shedd's 'Sermons to the Natural Man' are, if not absolutely the best, yet of the very best doctrinal and spiritual sermons produced in this generation. We have known much of their power in convincing sinners, and in deepening, widening and exalting the experience of true Christians. Doctrinal preaching, though not in fashion, is the preaching that we need, and the preaching which always best vindicates itself when put to the test of practice. And of all the examples of doctrinal preaching in this generation, the sermons of Dr. Shedd excel in many particulars. He grasps the very heart and soul of the truth. He holds it in its entirety with uncompromising loyalty; he states it with wonderful clearness and accuracy, and illustrates and applies it with singular facility and grace of style." "These sermons to the Natural Man have the true ring. They are pervaded by a vivid and profound conviction of the reality of spiritual things and of the solemn conditions under which human beings are placed in this transitory life. They are designed to promote self-reflection to deepen that consciousness of sin, which exists in some degree even in men who are most absorbed in the pursuit of the world. One can hardly fail to be impressed, in reading these discourses, with the loftiness, the wide range and the impressiveness of religious truth." -The New Englander and Yale Review SGCB PAPERBACK SETS SERMONS SPECIAL WGT sss b50 lday smw Nearly 50% Discount SGCB Price: $16.95 (list price $30.00)order with SERMONS TO THE SPIRITUAL MAN SGCB Price: $32.00 (list price $60.00)Order All TEN Shedd Volumes from SGCB at Nearly 60% Off SGCB Price: $125.00 (list price $280.00) |

In the earlier volume, the author aimed to address the human conscience. In this, he would speak to the Christian heart.

 click for details | | THE HISTORY OF CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE: in Two Volumes William G.T. Shedd William G. T. Shedd starts his monumental work by pointing out that one of the strongest defenses of Christian doctrine is found through examining how various theological concepts have come about and changed over time. This history is the story of how our understanding of God, ourselves, and the relationship between God and us has grown. This two volume set is an excellent work for those who want to examine the history of Christian doctrine over the ages and is a highly recommended purchase for all serious students. COMMENDATIONS FROM THE PAST "We hold that this is the most important contribution that has been made to our theological literature during the present age." - Presbyterian Standard "In our judgment, no production of greater moment has been given to the public in a long time." - Princeton Review "On its first appearance this work by Dr. Shedd was unanimously recognized as filling with remarkable success a blank that had existed in our English literature on this important subject, and it still holds the foremost place in works of this class." - Edinburgh Daily Review COMMENDATIONS FROM THE PRESENT "I have often refered to Shedd's 'History of Christian Doctrine' in preparation for class, for personal understanding of difficult issues, and for evangelical encouragement." - Dr. Tom J. Nettles "History is theology lived out in good or contrary examples. The history of theological thought is a missing foundation in our a-historical age. This is the case in culture and in the church-at-large. Ideas have consequences. They have tangible effects and then become causes for a new generation as they generate more ideas. The importance of Shedd's work cannot be over-stated. Shedd will help sort out what is gold, what is good, and what is to be left behind." Dr. Mike Renihan VOLUME ONE INTRODUCTION BOOK FIRST: Influence of Philosophical Systems upon the Construction of Christian Doctrine BOOK SECOND: History of Apologies BOOK THIRD: History of Theology (Trinitarianism) and Christology VOLUME TWO BOOK FOUR: History of Anthropology BOOK FIVE: History of Soteriology BOOK SIX: History of Eschatology BOOK SEVEN: History of Symbols (Confessions and Creeds) NOW AVAILABLE!

 click for details | | ORTHODOXY AND HETERODOX: A Miscellany of Articles on Theology and Ethics William G.T. Shedd Composed of numerous articles relating "to principles in theology and ethics which are eternal, and vehemently opposed in the standing conflict between orthodoxy and heterodoxy." Shedd notes that in this war "[t]here is nothing new in the orthodoxy of today; and nothing new in the newest heterodoxy. A scholar vested in ancient learning can trace both alike in the antagonisms of the past. Speaking generally, the orthodox respects and cultivates systematic theology; the heterodox contemns and vilifies it. The former maintains the carefully stated creeds of the evangelical denominations; the latter seeks to revise, relax, and nullify them. Orthodoxy defines Christianity to be an exclusive religion, distinct from all others, and intended to convert them; heterodoxy explains it to be a conglomerate of all religions, and destined to be merged and lost in them." "There are no new truths, only new believers; and there are no new errors, only new errorists. W.G.T. Shedd recognized that the contest between truth and error is a constant reality of human history. In this miscellany he confronted the vigorous heterodoxy and apathetic orthodoxy of his day. This contest continues. The cast has changed but the script is the same, which makes this work as useful today as it was a century ago." Dr. Robert P. Martin Pastor, Emmanuel Reformed Baptist Church, Seattle, Washington Editor, Reformed Baptist Theological Review This volume is a polemic by a master wordsmith, defending the historic faith; exhorting "the really orthodox in all denominations, to preserve their historic creeds, and maintain their ancient discipline".

 | | CASPAR OLEVIAN AND THE SUBSTANCE OF THE COVENANT The Double Benefit of Christ R. Scott Clark Endorsements: "This volume is the most comprehensive treatment of Olevian's theology published to date. Reflecting an impressive breadth of research and depth of analysis, it delivers on its promise at the beginning to move beyond my own work on Olevian's covenant thought by placing his doctrine of the covenant in context of his theology as a whole. In doing so, it offers, one might say, a duplex beneficium. First, it secures Olevian's reputation as a significant theologian in his own right and not simply as the failed reformer of Trier, the court preacher of Heidelberg, or an author of the Heidelberg Catechism. Second, it accurately identifies his place in the development of Reformed theology as it passed from the Age of Reformation to the Age of Orthodoxy. A stellar addition to this series in historical theology." - Lyle D. Bierma "Dr. Clark's book is a very welcome addition to the growing literature on the development of Reformed Orthodoxy in the Reformation and post-Reformation period. In a series of carefully argued chapters, he places Olevian's thought in historical context and, by so doing, puts to rest a number of misconstructions of doctrinal development during this time while shedding new light upon the relationship of the theology of Olevian to that of the Heidelberg Catechism, of John Calvin, and of the wider Reformed world. This is a book that should be ready by all students and scholars interested in the theology of the period in general and of Olevian in particular." - Carl R. Trueman "Clark's study of Caspar Olevian's doctrine of the covenant and its 'twofold benefit,' justification and sanctification, is a fine and needed addition to the literature on the developing Reformed tradition during the sixteenth century. Contrary to the claim of some who advocate a 'Calvin against the Calvinist' approach to the development of the Reformed tradition, Clark demonstrates that Olevian's work was 'in Calvin's line.' Since Olevian was an important contributor to the writing of the Heidelberg Catechism, Clark's study also sheds light upon that great Reformed confession." - Cornelis P. Venema ARBCA SPECIAL SALE SGCB Price: $17.95 (list price $25.00) |

| | PIERRE VIRET TRILOGYLetters of Comfort to the Persecuted ChurchTHOU SHALT NOT KILL: A Plea for LifeThe Christian and the Civil Magistrate PIERRE VIRET PIERRE VIRET (1511-1571) was a Swiss Reformer and close friend of John Calvin. A man of humble beginnings and an obscure ending, Pierre Viret has lain concealed in the shadows of forgotten history for centuries. Who is this man, and does he really matter? "I think there has never been in ordinary life a circle of friends so heartily bound to each other as we have been in our ministry," said Calvin of himself and his closest friends Pierre Viret and William Farel. He did not exaggerate. Throughout the course of John Calvin's tumultuous and turbulent career, there was one man who stood ever beside him as one of his dearest friends and closest confidantes. Viret, two years Calvin's junior, was regarded by the older Reformer as the greatest of comrades. Writing of him in 1541, Calvin declared, "should Viret be taken away from me I shall be utterly ruined!" Speaking of their friendship, he wrote, "It will at least be a testimony to this present age and perhaps to posterity of the holy bond of friendship that unites us." Who was this man of whom Calvin thought so highly and prized so greatly? THESE THREE BOOKS REVEAL SOMETHING OF HIS STRONG AND TENDER HEART. THOU SHALT NOT KILL: A Plea for Life by Viret & John Calvin Anger, hatred, and the taking of innocent life are issues that have plagued the world since the days of Cain and Abel. When is anger justifiable? What constitutes unrighteous anger? How are Christians to view suicide, abortion, euthanasia, mercy-killing, and the like? What do the Scriptures say about engaging in wars or killing in self-defense? Within this book Swiss Reformer Pierre Viret (1511-1571) discusses the Biblical principles needed to address the crucial issues of our day regarding life and death. Questions of anger and hatred, brotherly reconciliation, murders and magistrates, the death penalty and pardon, just wars, the shedding of innocent blood, and much more is examined and considered through the lens of Scripture within this little treatise. Joining Pierre Viret is fellow-Reformer John Calvin with a sermon preached on the shedding of innocent blood. Drawing from the doctrines laid down in Scripture, Calvin examines the duties and roles of men, Christians, and magistrates when innocent blood has been shed in their land. Letters of Comfort to the Persecuted Church From the depths of a pastor's heart come letters of hearty biblical comfort for persecuted believers. Written to men and women facing imprisonment, banishment, suffering, and death, these letters capture the heart of the Gospel and offer consolation and sincere comfort for those suffering for the sake of Christ. Written by Pierre Viret, a Swiss Reformer and close friend of John Calvin, these letters overflow with a pastoral concern for the souls as well as the physical needs of his readers. Republished several times throughout the Reformation era, Viret's letters appear now for the first time in the English language, and the comfort they offer to an afflicted church is as pertinent today as it was the day he wrote them. The CHRISTIAN and the MAGISTRATE by Viret What is the Biblical definition of a civil magistrate? Should Christians be subject to them? Should civil governments be subject to God? Is physical resistance to authority ever justifiable? Under what circumstances? And what is a Christian's role with respect to the civil sphere? 16th century Swiss Reformer Pierre Viret once expressed his feelings of political turmoil: "By nature I have always loved peace, and was always horrified at all dissensions and troubles." Despite the man's peace-loving nature, however, God chose to place Viret in some of the most politically tumultuous situations imaginable throughout his life. In these times Viret was compelled to search the Scriptures in an effort to instruct his congregations (as well as countless others asking his advice) on the Biblical definition and response to civil government, war, resistance against authorities, tyrants, and many other political matters. The writings contained in 'The Christian and the Magistrate' are a collection of some of the applications Viret offered of the Biblical truths pertaining to magistrates and the Christian's duty to them.

 click for details | | BIBLICAL EXEGESIS: Its Influence Upon the Theologian and Preacher William G.T. Shedd On Monday evening, January 11, 1864 William G.T. Shedd D.D. was inaugurated into the Chair of 'Biblical Literature,' in the Union Theological Seminary in New York. The services were held in the Madison Square Church, and Charles Butler, Esq., Vice-President of the Board of Directors, presided on the occasion, and put the constitutional questions to the Professor elect. The services were opened with prayer by the Rev. Dr. George L. Prentiss. After the Induction of Professor Shedd, the Charge was delivered in behalf of the Directors by the Rev. William Adams, D.D., of New York. The Memorable Address that is found in this booklet was delivered that evening by Prof. Shedd and was entitled BIBLICAL EXEGESIS: Its Influence Upon the Theologian and Preacher. With this outstanding address Shedd made clear his absolute commitment to Biblical Authority and the role exegesis must hold for the Theologian and the Preacher. This work is a must read for all who are called to study and teach the Holy Scriptures in the Seminary Classroom, the local Church or even in the home. Shedd concludes his address with these solemn words: "It is to such a high office and work as this, that you have called me, Fathers and Brethren, Directors of Union Seminary. That I do not feel sufficient for this thing, I need not say. I cannot bring to this chair the accurate grammatical discipline, the solid philological learning, and the remarkable geographical knowledge of the eminent scholar whom I succeed. But I can, I trust, bring to it an ever-deepening reverence for the Divine Word, a firm confidence in its infallibility, and an increasing sense of dependence upon the illumination of the Divine Spirit. If these be in any Christian man and abound, they will make him that he shall neither be barren nor unfruitful. For they will stimulate him to study, to investigate, to analyze; and they will pour the clear and guiding light of heaven itself over all his studies, all his investigations, and all his analyses." Shedd went on to serve faithfully this post of Biblical Literature at Union until 1874, when he was appointed to the Chair of Systematic Theology where he faithfully served until 1890. It was during the final years of his service at Union that he began his life-work, his great three volume DOGMATIC THEOLOGY. tdm 6g b50 lday OVST smw VERY RARE ADDRESS FROM A MASTER-THEOLOGIAN SGCB Price: $3.75 (list price $7.00)NOW AVAILABLE TO SHIP ORDER ALL TEN SHEDD VOLUMES FROM SOLID GROUND SGCB Price: $125.00 (list price $280.00)THIS IS THE PRICE FOR THE ENTIRE SET |

 click for details | | HOMILETICS & PASTORAL THEOLOGY William G.T. Shedd Dr. W.G.T. Shedd expounds almost every aspect of preaching, analyzing its nature, outlining the main features which should characterize powerful preaching and describing the approach, plan, actual construction and refinements of a sermon. This volume was used for many years as a standard textbook in several theological seminaries throughout the United States. The second part of the volume is devoted to the vital subject of Pastoral Theology. Here Shedd is equally thorough and deals with the essential character of a minister, his way of life, his duties, his work of visitation and finally, his work of catechizing his people so as to be informed as to their progress and position in relationship to the preaching. Although much shorter than the first part of the volume, this material is of immense value, and is worth the price of the book.

 click for details | | THE DOCTRINE OF ENDLESS PUNISHMENT: Its Historical, Biblical and Rational Defense William G.T. Shedd This doctrine is so solemn that man's natural instinct is either to ignore it or deny it. From time to time in the history of the Christian church it comes under concerted attack, as it did during the life of W.G.T. Shedd, the noted nineteenth century theologian and preacher. In this work, Shedd carefully expounds the biblical teaching on divine judgment, and sets it in the context of the history of Christian doctrine. He deals carefully and cogently with objections to it. "W. G. T. Shedd's small but immensely useful book, 'The Doctrine of Endless Punishment,' takes direct aim at the conditional immortality views that are currently disturbing evangelicals. Shedd presents convincing historical, biblical and rational argumentation. It is a well-designed pistol for the protective pastor to fend off error, and will result in more passionate evangelism as it works its way through his preaching. - Jim Elliff, Christian Communicators Worldwide "The Doctrine of Endless Punishment is a well-reasoned, theologically accurate statement which treats fully yet concisely the date contained in the revelation of God to man. This treatise deseves careful study; and provides adequate coverage of a much neglected aspect of Biblical doctrine." - Cyril J. Barber Shedd shows that 'The strongest support of the doctrine of endless punishment is the teaching of Christ, the Redeemer of man; without the explicit and reiterated statements of God incarnate, it is doubtful whether so awful a truth would have had such a conspicuous place as it always has had in the creed of Christendom. Christ could not have warned men so frequently and earnestly as he did, had he known there is no future peril.' This book will have a profoundly sobering effect on its readers; but its lasting impression will be to cause a new concern for men and women without Christ, and undying gratitude for 'Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come'. TABLE OF CONTENTS Foreword by Cyril J. Barber Preface to Original Edition in November 1885 Preface to the Second Edition in November 1887 CHAPTER ONE: The History of the Doctrine (pages 1-11) CHAPTER TWO: The Biblical Argument for the Doctrine (pages 12-117) CHAPTER THREE: The Rational Argument for the Doctrine (pages 118-169) APPENDIX: Consisting of Detailed Notes from the Entire Book (pages 171-201) W.G.T. Shedd (1820-1894) was both a congregational and, later, a Presbyterian pastor.

 click for details | | COMMENTARY ON THE EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS: A Classic Reformed Exposition William G.T. Shedd First published in 1879, this classic Reformed Commentary has been reprinted again and again through the years. It is an outstanding contribution to the study of the Epistle that has turned the world upside-down. "When studying Romans, I usually reach for Shedd first. Highly valued in past generations, Shedd's careful treatment of the original text is succinct and yet richly suggestive of profitable lines of exposition. A must have for serious study of Paul's most important letter." the late Dr. Robert P. Martin "Believing that the Epistle to the Romans is 'an inspired system of theology,' Shedd sought to give particular attention to the great doctrines of original sin in chapter 5, indwelling sin in chapters 7 and 8, and election and reprobation in chapters 9, 10 and 11. The merit of Shedd's commentary is found in his fresh examination of the Greek text, combined with an appreciative interaction with the best of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Reformed exegesis, and his abiding commitment to the traditional Reformed concept that the intended fruit of exegesis is a systematic statement of religious truth." - Rev.

 click for details | | THEOLOGICAL ESSAYS William G.T. Shedd "Shedd's insights into prevailing trends and their consequences, so eloquently expressed in this book of essays is deserving of repeated close scrutiny. Sufficient for us to say that his material is biblically orthodox, historically defensible, and as important to us today as when it was first penned more than 100 years ago.

| | BIBLICAL FOUNDATIONS: An Introduction to the Classic Writings of a Master Theologian Benjamin B. Warfield, with an Introduction by Dr. D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones wrote the following in his outstanding Introduction, "While there were many who fought valiantly to refute the errors being propogated, it can be said without fear of contradiction that B.B. Warfield stood out pre-eminently and incomparably the greatest of all. He was peculiarly fitted for such a task. He had a mathematical mind and had at one time considered the possibility of a career as a mathematician. His precision and logical thinking appear everywhere. Added to this he was a first class New Testament scholar and a superb exegete and expositor. Furthermore he had received the best training that was available at the time, and not only in his own country. He thus could meet liberal scholarship on its own grounds and did so." Lloyd-Jones went on to say, "No theological writings are so intellectually satisfying and so strengthening to faith as those of Warfield. He shirks no issue and evades no problems and never stoops to the use of subterfuge. One is impressed by his honesty and integrity as much as by his profound scholarship and learning. The result is that there is a finality and authority about all he wrote." Samuel Craig, a contemporary of Warfield, said, "What most impresses the student of Warfield's writings, apart from his deeply religious spirit, his sense of complete dependence on God for all things, including especially his sense of indebtedness as a lost sinner to His free grace, is the breadth of his learning and the exactness of his scholarship. John DeWitt, long the professor of Church History in Princeton Seminary and himself a man of no mean scholarship, once told the writer that he had known intimately the three great Reformed theologians of America of the preceding generation - Charles Hodge, W.G.T. Shedd and Henry B. Smith - and that he was not only certain that Warfield knew a great deal more than any one of them but that he was disposed to think that he knew more than all three of them put together." COMMENDATIONS FOR THIS NEW WORK - "B B Warfield was a master theologian yet his writings outside of the area of scriptural authority are not as well-known or as well-read as they deserve to be. His contributions to theology in general and to our understanding of Christ and salvation in particular were outstanding. All Christians, from preachers to new believers, can benefit from reading this giant of the Christian faith." - Carl R. Trueman, Paul Woolley Professor of Church History, WTS Philadelphia "To read Warfield is like taking a tour of a cave full of crystalline rock formations while guided by an expert geologist - it produces both learning and wonder. Warfield's theology drew from thorough and careful studies of the Scriptures. Yet in the details he never lost his sense of awe at the God of redemption. This collection of essays sparkles with Warfield's insights into great truths of the faith. Reading it will store up treasure in your mind, and warm your heart." - Dr. Joel R. Beeke, President, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, Grand Rapids, Michigan "The essays gathered under this title provide an excellent introduction to the theological depth and insights of this most learned Princetonian giant. They represent well the marvelously equipped, gospel-loving, Christ-adoring theologian that Warfield was, marked as they are by the exegetical precision and theological richness that have made him so appreciated and beloved from his day to our own. Reading these selections your mind and heart will be enlarged in joyful worship." - Fred Zaspel, author of "The Theology of B.B. Warfield, A Systematic Summary" "B. B. Warfield's works have been a wonderful help to me personally and in my ministry to others. He is a true scholar who yet held a personal love of Christ which came out in His scholarly writings. His essay on 'The Emotional Life of our Lord' is a classic to help us understand the complexity and simplicity of how our Lord Jesus Christ thought and felt as fully God and man in one Person. I have used it with interns and pastors to help them gain a greater understanding of how Christ thinks and feels about His people, yet have given it to laymen who wanted to know how Christ thinks about themselves. It has been a help to all. So, I commend this attempt to expose one of our greatest lights to a new generation." - Fred Malone, author of "Baptism of Disciples Alone" TABLE OF CONTENTS 1- The Biblical Idea of Revelation 2- The Biblical Idea of Inspiration 3- The Biblical Doctrine of the Trinity 4- The Supernatural Birth of Jesus 5- The Person of Christ According to the New Testament 6- The Emotional Life of our Lord 7- Christ Our Sacrifice 8- The New Testament Terminology of Redemption 9- The Biblical Doctrine of Predestination 10- The Historical and Biblical Conception of Faith 11- New Testament Terms Descriptive of the Great Change 12- Are They Few That Be Saved?

| | # 3 - ARTHUR PINK TRILOGY: THE DOCTRINE OF RECONCILIATION A.W. PINK "Three considerations have influenced us in the selection of this theme. First, a desire to preserve the balance of Truth. In order to do this it is desirable that there should be an alternation between and a proportionate emphasis upon both the objective and the subjective sides of the Truth. After we had completed our exposition of the doctrine of Justification we followed the same with a series on the doctrine of Sanctification: the former treats entirely of the righteousness which Christ has wrought or procured for His people, being something wholly outside of themselves and independent of their own efforts; whereas the latter speaks not only of the perfect purity which the believer has in Christ, but also of the holiness which the Spirit actually communicates to the soul and which is influential on his conduct. Then we took up the doctrine of Predestination which is concerned entirely with the sovereignty of God, and therefore we followed that with a series of man's Impotency and the Saint's Perseverance, where the principal emphasis was upon human responsibility. It will be well for us now to turn our attention back again to the Divine operations and the wondrous Second, because of a felt need of again bringing conspicuously before our readers "the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ." It is His sacrificial work which is prominent, yes, dominant in the reconciling of God to His people. It was by the shedding of Christ's precious blood that God was placated and His wrath averted. It was by Christ's being chastised that peace has been made for us. And it is by the preaching of the Cross that our awful enmity against God is slain and that we are moved to abandon our vile warfare against Him. As it is upwards of twelve years since we completed the rather lengthy series of articles we wrote upon the Atonement, under the title "The Satisfaction of Christ," it seems high time that we once more contemplated the greatest marvel and miracle of all history, namely, the Lamb of God being slain for the redemption of sinners. The doctrine of reconciliation has much to do with what took place at Calvary, yes apart from that no reconciliation with God had been possible. It is therefore a subject which should warm the hearts of the saints and bow them in adoration Third, because it treats of an aspect of the Gospel which receives scant attention in the modern pulpit. Nor has it ever, so far as we have been able to ascertain, been made very prominent. This doctrine has failed to command the notice which it merits even from God's own servants and people. Far less appears to have been preached on it than on either justification or sanctification. For one book written on this subject probably fifty have been published on either of the others. Why this should be is not easy to explain: it is not because it is more obscure or intricate. In our judgment, much to the contrary. Certainly it is of equal importance and value, for it treats of an aspect of our relationship and recovery to God as essential as either of the others. Our need of justification lies in our failure to keep the Law of God; of sanctification, because we are defiled and polluted by sin, and therefore unfit for the presence of the, Holy One; our reconciliation, because we are alienated from God, rebels against Him, with no heart for fellowship with Him. Though the terms justify and sanctify occur more frequently in the New Testament than does "reconcile," yet the correlative "God of peace" and other expressions must also be duly noted." awpt SGCB Price: $9.50 (list price $15.00)ORDER WITH THE # 3 AW PINK TRILOGY WITH 'THE ATTRIBUTES OF GOD" & "THE SEVEN SAYINGS FROM THE CROSS" SGCB Price: $24.50 (list price $42.99)ORDER ALL TEN FEATURED A.W.
