Inhaltsangabe

Christ And His Cross: Selections From Rutherford�������s Letters (1902) is a book written by Samuel Rutherford, a Scottish Presbyterian pastor and theologian who lived in the 17th century. The book is a compilation of selected letters written by Rutherford to his friends and followers, in which he discusses the theme of Christ and his cross. The letters in the book are divided into four parts, each dealing with a different aspect of Christ's life and ministry. The first part focuses on the person of Christ, his divinity, and his humanity. The second part deals with Christ's work on the cross, his atoning sacrifice, and the benefits that flow from it. The third part discusses the believer's union with Christ, and the fourth part deals with the believer's response to Christ's love and grace.Throughout the book, Rutherford emphasizes the centrality of Christ and his cross in the Christian faith. He argues that Christ is the only way to salvation, and that the believer's hope and joy are found in him alone. Rutherford's letters are filled with rich theological insights, pastoral wisdom, and deep spiritual devotion, making this book a valuable resource for Christians seeking to deepen their understanding of Christ and his gospel.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

SAMUEL RUTHERFORD (1600-1661), a Scottish-born Presbyterian minister, scholar, and writer, was influential in Scottish politics through his sermons and widely read theories. His philosophies on limiting government resulted in a charge of high treason, however, he died before the trial. GEORGE BUCHANAN (1506-1582) was lauded as one of the most profound intellectuals of sixteenth-century Scotland. His writing advocated for power to the people and weakening of the monarchy which incited the ire of political pundits and was condemned by an act of parliament.
