Attributes of God by Don Fortner

Attributes of God

Doctrine  by 
Don Fortner

How do you view God? Do you see Him as a tyrant who wants to rule your life but never respects your feelings, or do you see Him as a loving Parent who may be disciplinary at times but wants what’s good for you? Do you want the power to control everything in your life even if you end up destroying yourself, or do you find comfort knowing that there is God who can turn your bad situation upside down? In this book, Don Fortner enumerated the characteristics of God. He explained that if we fail to understand his attributes and think of him as a fallible being like us, it will lead to the twisted perception of His Holiness that can make us turn away from Him. But if we trust that He wants everything for our good, we can see the beautiful things He is making in His time.

Josiah’s Reformation by Richard Sibbes

Josiahs Reformation

History  by 
Richard Sibbes

For Richard Sibbes, it is more to the world than what is visible. He has always been inclined towards seeking out all that is hidden in the heart of his listener’s behaviors. He was convinced that sin stems from inner desires residing and growing in the heart, and without reaching and pulling these desires from the roots, altering the person’s behavior will result in hypocrisy and can manifest the cold and self-righteous cloak for a heart that is dark deep within. Published first in 1629, this book is as relevant today because Sibbes believed in turning the hearts of people. A narrative that needs to be reintroduced today as our busy lives degenerate into hypocrisy where we keep the outward routine and appearance of holiness without having the heart for it. Sibbes believed in a world where Christians enjoyed Christ first, before using him as a package to pass on.

Gleanings from the Book of Life by Henry Law

Gleanings from the Book of Life

Daily Devotional  by 
Henry Law

It is not a new conviction to Henry Law when he writes on the large spaces the Church and its affairs occupy in the minds, thoughts, writings and discourses, noting that the attention to ‘semblance of religion’ has never been the failure of the present day. As rank weeds; luxury, pleasure, pride and selfishness prevails in many forms; it overruns the civilization and they are not invested in stimulating the interest of the masses in spirituality and its concerns. In admits of all ambiguity, he states that zeal for all forms of devotion holds its ground, withstanding the blasts of infidelity and superstition. Henry Law concludes his work by curating multiple messages from scattered passages to highlight the truth that pervades the sacred volume, the truth that amid exertion in the name of religion, the remedy of sin is always neglected and sorrowful men spend their energies in sowing chaff.

Church Discipline by John Owen

Church Discipline

Daily Devotional  by 
John Owen

Church Discipline is a scholarly devotional written by John Owen, one of the greatest European Reformed theologians and the leading church figure for the English Puritan movement. In today’s congregations, discipline is amiss. A majority of conservative leaders think that a church cannot be Biblical unless it practices sound church discipline. The motivation is the restoration of the sinner, and when it fails, the church’s protection is required.

Owen calls the church in Biblical knowledge, using comprehensive annotation and intellectual authority. From the acceptance of new members into its society, governance, and tutelage of those who are entrusted to it, and exclusion from its community of those who refuse to live and walk according to its norms and standards, Owen beckons leaders of His light to duly recognize that authority can be utilized for the betterment of the church.

Biblical Elders and Deacons

Daily Devotional  by 
Nehemiah Coxe

Christ’s will as revealed in Scripture is the pattern for the church, and Nehemiah Coxe unfolds aspects of that pattern that relate to church leadership. “The edification and beauty of the Church is much concerned in her order, not such an order as superstition will dictate, or litigious nicety contend for, but such as sets her in a conformity with Christ’s will; and particularly the filling up of the offices which He has appointed, with persons duly qualified for the administration of them, and the regular acting both of officers and members in their respective positions.”

The Church is the creation of the Holy Spirit. It is a community of believers who owe their religious life from the first to the last to the Spirit. Apart from Him, there can be neither Christian nor Church. The Christian religion not institutional but experimental. It is not an ordained class, neither is it in ordinances and sacraments. It is not a fellowship of common interest in culture, virtue, or service.

Christians Armour by Arthur W. Pink

Christians Armour

Daily Devotional  by 
Arthur W. Pink

Considered by many to be the most influential Puritan today, Pink’s writings have the depth that rivals Puritans, making his work relevant in this century that postdates the Puritan era by several centuries. The deep research is evident in this brief exposition of Ephesians 6:10-18 as it deals with the practicality of faith through a kaleidoscope of helpful observations and dealing with aspects of sanctification. With doctrines in the front ranks of Christian writing, Pink encourages his disciples to seek to walk by the Lord as close as they can; turning from sin and all that is wicked in the spiritual light. The books aim to help Christians in developing a disciplined mind to live for God. He further states that to be strong in grace, one must be weak in sin and that we should be merciless when dealing with corruption. Prayer becomes the armor when we are diligent.
