The words Christ spoke from the cross can inform Christians of the
purpose, the meaning, the sufferings, and the sufficiency of his
death. After an introduction that discusses the nature of Christ's
death as natural, unnatural, preternatural, and supernatural, Dr.
Arthur W. Pink clearly illustrates the lessons that can be drawn
from Christ's words-lessons on forgiveness, salvation, affection,
anguish, suffering, victory, and contentment. This comprehensive
and accessible volume is useful for both sermon preparation and
personal study.
An unforgettably beautiful picture of our Lord is drawn for God's
people in the beloved Gospel of John. The promises in this Fourth
Gospel have brought to weary hearts down through the centuries the
sudden delight of the traveler who, crossing a desert, suddenly
comes upon the cool, tranquil comfort of a green-bordered oasis.
Thoroughly scholastic and yet vigorously practical, this exposition
of the beloved Gospel (a verse-by-verse running commentary) is not
a "hasty production." The author has already devoted fifteen years
of special study to John's Gospel and taught the book to five
different classes in the course of as many pastorates besides
lecturing on it frequently from the Bibles conference platform. He
has diligently sought to do two things (and accomplished them with
praiseworthy distinction): (1) obtain from God the meaning of the
text, and (2) apply its lessons most effectively to his hearers and
readers.
A Transforming Knowledge of the Living God The timeless appeal of
this classic book, written by a preacher with a worldwide ministry
during the first half of the twentieth century, demonstrates the
deep hunger for a saving knowledge of God present in each
generation. Arthur Pink sought to give readers not just a
theoretical knowledge of God but pointed them toward a personal
relationship of yielding to him and living according to his
biblical precepts. Pink??'s book explores attributes such as
God??'s decrees, foreknowledge, sovereignty, holiness, grace, and
mercy, among many others, all packaged in a style especially useful
for pastors, teachers, and Bible students. Our God who is above all
names cannot be found through human searching alone, Pink teaches,
but can be known only as he is revealed by the Holy Spirit through
his living Word. Arthur W. Pink (1886???1952) served as a pastor
for churches in Colorado, California, Kentucky, and South Carolina.
His ministry brought him throughout the United States, Australia,
and Great Britain.
Arthur W. Pink Collection Vol 2 includes three Arthur Pink
classics; Comfort for Christians, The Beatitudes, and Regeneration
or The New Birth. "The work unto which the servant of Christ is
called is many-sided. Not only is he to preach the Gospel to the
unsaved, to feed God's people with knowledge and understanding
(Jer. 3:15), and to take up the stumbling stone out of their way
(Isa. 57:14), but he is also charged to "cry aloud, spare not, lift
up thy voice like a trumpet, and show My people their
transgression" (Isa. 58:1 and cf. 1 Tim. 4:2). While another
important part of his commission is stated in, "Comfort ye, My
people, said your God" (Isa. 40:1). "What an honorable title, "My
people " What an assuring relationship: "your God " What a pleasant
task: "comfort ye My people " A threefold reason may be suggested
for the duplicating of the charge. First, because sometimes the
souls of believers refuse to be comforted (Ps. 77:2), and the
consolation needs to be repeated. Second, to press this duty the
more emphatically upon the preacher's heart, that he need not be
sparing in administering cheer. Third, to assure us how heartily
desirous God himself is that His people should be of good cheer
(Phil. 4:4)." "Opinion has been much divided concerning the design,
scope, and application of the Sermon on the Mount. Most
commentators have seen in it an exposition of Christian ethics. Men
such as the late Count Tolstoi have regarded it as the setting
forth of a "golden rule" for all men to live by. Others have dwelt
upon its dispensational bearings, insisting that it belongs not to
the saints of the present dispensation but to believers within a
future millennium. Two inspired statements, however, reveal its
true scope. In Matthew 5:1, 2, we learn that Christ was here
teaching His disciples. From Matthew 7:28, 29, it is clear that He
was also addressing a great multitude of the people. Thus it is
evident that this address of our Lord contains instruction both for
believers and unbelievers alike." Two chief obstacles lie in the
way of the salvation of any of Adam's fallen descendants: bondage
to the guilt and penalty of sin, bondage to the power and presence
of sin; or, in other words, their being bound for Hell and their
being unfit for Heaven. These obstacles are, so far as man is
concerned, entirely insurmountable. This fact was unequivocally
established by Christ, when, in answer to His disciples' question,
"Who then can be saved?," He answered, "with men this is
impossible." A lost sinner might more easily create a world than
save his own soul. But (forever be His name praised), the Lord
Jesus went on to say, "with God all things are possible" (Matt.
19:25, 26). Arthur Walkington Pink was an English Christian
evangelist and Biblical scholar. Born to Christian parents, prior
to conversion he migrated into a Theosophical society and quickly
rose in prominence. His conversion came from his father's patient
admonitions from Scripture. It was Proverbs 14:12, 'there is a way
which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of
death, ' which particularly struck his heart and compelled him to
renounce Theosophy and follow Jesus.
Arthur W. Pink Collection Vol 1 includes three Arthur Pink
classics; The Divine Inspiration of the Bible, Profiting From The
Word, and Divine Healing: Is It Scriptural. "Christianity is the
religion of a Book. Christianity is based upon the impregnable rock
of Holy Scripture. The starting point of all doctrinal discussion
must be the Bible. Upon the foundation of the Divine inspiration of
the Bible stands or falls the entire edifice of Christian
truth.-"If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous
do?" (Ps. 11:3). Surrender the dogma of verbal inspiration and you
are left like a rudderless ship on a stormy sea-at the mercy of
every wind that blows. Deny that the Bible is, without any
qualifications, the very Word of God, and you are left without any
ultimate standard of measurement and without any supreme authority.
It is useless to discuss any doctrine taught by the Bible until you
are prepared to acknowledge, unreservedly, that the Bible is the
final court of appeal. Grant that the Bible is a Divine revelation
and communication of God's own mind and will to men, and you have a
fixed starting point from which advance can be made into the domain
of truth. Grant that the Bible is (in its original manuscripts)
inerrant and infallible and you reach the place where study of its
contents is both practicable and profitable." "There is grave
reason to believe that much Bible reading and Bible study has been
of no spiritual profit to those who engaged in it. We greatly fear
that in many instances it has proved a curse rather than a
blessing. This is strong language, we are well aware, yet no
stronger than the case calls for. Divine gifts may be misused, and
Divine mercies abused. That this has been so in the present
instance is evident by the fruits produced. Even the natural man
may take up the study of the Scriptures with the same enthusiasm
and pleasure as he might of the sciences. Where this is the case,
his store of knowledge is increased, and so also is his pride. Like
a chemist engaged in making interesting experiments, the
intellectual searcher of the Word is quite elated when he makes
some discovery in it; but the joy of the latter is no more
spiritual than would be that of the former. Again, just as the
successes of the chemist generally increase his sense of
self-importance and cause him to look with disdain upon others more
ignorant than himself, so alas, is it often the case with those who
have investigated Bible numerics, typology, prophecy and other such
subjects." "Divine healing?" Is it scriptural or unscriptural? This
is a question which it is not easy to answer in a single sentence.
Many passages on healing may be cited from God's Word, but that
raises the question of their interpretation-in accord with the
context and also in harmony with the general Analogy of Faith: as
it also calls for a careful examination of all inferences drawn
from and conclusions based upon those passages." Arthur Walkington
Pink was an English Christian evangelist and Biblical scholar known
for his staunchly Calvinist and Puritan-like teachings. Though born
to Christian parents, prior to conversion he migrated into a
Theosophical society (an occult gnostic group popular in England
during that time), and quickly rose in prominence within their
ranks. His conversion came from his father's patient admonitions
from Scripture. It was the verse, Proverbs 14:12, 'there is a way
which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of
death, ' which particularly struck his heart and compelled him to
renounce Theosophy and follow Jesus.
"The present generation has, for the most part, been reared not
only in an atmosphere of negative unbelief but of hostile unbelief.
They live in a world where materialism and skepticism are rampant
and dominant. In the great majority of homes the Sunday newspaper
is the only thing read on the Lord's Day. Doubt as to moral and
spiritual truth is distilled through a score of channels. Our seats
of learning are hotbeds of agnosticism. Our literature, with rare
exceptions, makes light of God, and jokes about sacred things. The
newspapers, the radio broadcasts, public utterances and private
conversations, are steadily but surely removing the foundations of
righteousness and destroying what little faith in spiritual things
still remain. The vast majority in the English-speaking world are
totally ignorant of the contents of the Bible, know not that it is
a Divine revelation, yea, question whether there be any God at all.
Yet modern skepticism is rarely candid, but is rather a refuge in
which multitudes are sheltering from an accusing conscience. With
such we are not here concerned, for where a prejudiced mind and a
caviling spirit obtain, argument is useless; and we can but leave
them unto the sovereign mercy of the Lord." Arthur Walkington Pink

Early converts of the New Testament were instructed by the apostles
to wait vigilantly for the second coming of Christ. Today, many
have forgotten the task of preparing for Christ's return. In The
Redeemer's Return Arthur W. Pink searches the Old and New Testament
for information regarding Jesus' second coming. He first looks at
examples of Biblical prophecies which foretell Christ's second
coming. Then discusses the necessity of Jesus' return and explores
signs leading to His arrival. Pink then discusses the events that
will occur in the church and the world as a result of this
momentous occasion. Arthur Walkington Pink was an English Christian

1922. Contains both original volumes. This work contains a wealth
of material on Genesis which can be used in the pulpit and Sunday
school class. Each chapter has been studied carefully and
prayerfully and many are treasures which the Lord has enabled the
author to bring forth. It is not written in a heavy style, and is
interesting from start to finish. The author gives the reader a
breath of fresh air on a subject which has been studied and
discussed profusely over the ages.
In Gleanings from Paul Arthur W. Pink presents a detailed study of
Paul and his God honoring prayer. Throughout his letters Paul
offers prayer to God that are among the richest sources in all of
Scripture the how, why and power of prayer. Many Christians long to
see greater depth in their praying, here Pink gives insight into
Paul's relationship with God direction on how we can strengthen our
own walk with the Father. Arthur Walkington Pink was an English
