Présentation de l'éditeur :
John Henry Jowett wholeheartedly expresses and teaches the word of God in this superb book of guidance.
The book considers each characteristic of God to be a piece of His armour; as such, the earlier chapter titles refer to equipment such as God's shield, breastplate and girdle. By venerating and acquiring these qualities ourselves, we may protect ourselves from the greatest adversities or calamities and rejoice in spiritual closeness to the Lord.
In the latter half of this work, Jowett maintains his metaphorical allusions to martial prowess. Noting how the ideal soldier's valiance and steadfast outlook in view of the goal is much like that of a good believer, he affirms his belief that God resembles an invisible, yet adept and caring commander of his many followers. The final chapters seek to prepare Christians for the future battles and adversities which will waylay their goodly progress.
Reading this book, those faithful to God and Jesus Christ may gain comfort in the metaphor of armour. The ability of the Christian follower to clad himself in each piece, becoming a pillar of spiritual strength and adherence thereby, remains a favorite metaphor used in churches and by modern Christian writers to this day.
Born in Halifax, Great Britain, John Henry Jowett achieved popularity all over the English-speaking world for his poignant sermons. From modest birth he rose to preach the word of God to thousands, writing a series of popular books during the early 20th century which would serve many Christians as his preaching in paper form.

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
