À propos de la quatrième de couverture

A Collection of Writings That Influenced One of the Most Beloved Preachers of the Nineteenth Century

"Nothing shall be able to prevent your being happy to all eternity; having for the foundation of your hope that love of God which is from eternity to eternity, and His promise and oath, and His omnipotent power--things infinitely firmer than mountains of brass."
--Jonathan Edwards, from the sermon "The Peace Which Christ Gives His True Followers"

"As far as any of our enjoyments lead us unto God, so far let us relish it, affect it, embrace it, and rejoice in it...And then, whatever afflictions do lay fetters upon us, let us not only remember that we are concerned with God therein, but let our concernment with God procure a very profound submission in our souls."
--Cotton Mather, from the sermon "Satisfaction in God"

"Christ thinks not only of the lump of believers in general, but particularly of every believer, and is continually presenting His infinite merits before the Father to plead with Him to supply of all grace and mercy to us."
--Jeremiah Burroughs, Christ Is All in All

"What do men meddle with religion for? Why do they call themselves by the name of the Lord Jesus, if they have not the grace of God, if they have not the Spirit of Christ? God, therefore, expects fruit."
--John Bunyan, from the sermon "The Barren Fig Tree"

These men, and the two dozen more highlighted within this book, are some of the most famous and influential minds in the history of Christianity.
