Through story, anecdote, and personal example, Jim Schaap reflects
on phrases and sentences from the Heidelberg Catechism, challenging
teens to grow in their faith and understanding of Scripture. This
book of short meditations is a wonderful profession of faith gift.
Samuel Rutherford was a 17th Century Scottish Presbyterian preacher
whose writings have had a profound impact on Christians throughout
the generations. He was one of the Scottish Commissioners to the
Westminster Assembly, and his best-known work, Lex, Rex, had far
reaching influence. This collection of quotes, collated by editor
Malcolm MacLean, give an idea of the power his words had. Although
no more than a sentence or two, each of these quotes has a
profundity which leaves the reader thinking long after they have
closed the book. The quotations are split into topics: Jesus and
the Gospel Jesus - His Person and Work Communion with Jesus God
Christian Living Christian Service Thinking of Heaven Eternity and
Time For those who have never read Samuel Rutherford's works
before, this is a delectable introduction, encouraging you to seek
out his full works. For those who need no introduction to his
writings, these quotes are a quick reminder of the great truths he
strived to preach and the great God he strived to proclaim.
