The Trial and Triumph of Faith

The Trial and Triumph of Faith

From the healing of the daughter of the Canaanite woman, who refused to stop pleading with Jesus for her healing, [Matthew 15 and Mark 7] Scottish theologian and divine, Samuel Rutherford (1600? –1661) draws an exposition consisting of 27 sermons. Through these homilies, a penetrating picture of faith in Christ is given, along with an examination of the nature of faith, justification, and the Covenant of Redemption. Accentuated most is the free grace of God: “Christ, for this cause especially, left the bosom of God, and was clothed with flesh and our nature, that he might be…a sea and infinite river of visible, living, and breathing grace, swelling up to the highest banks…” This enduring book is a true classic and staple to grace every Christian’s library. Offered in paper back and hard back.
