Description
Book Synopsis
Stephen Charnock (1628-1680) wrote what is considered to be the fullest treatment of the attributes of God, even though he did not live to complete the treatise. It is truly a biblical portrait of God drawn with a Puritan pen, rightly deserving its place among the best of Puritan productions and of English literature altogether. However, today's reader may find the 1146 pages a bit daunting. This summary presents the treatise in a more manageable form that maintains the theological depth and practical application of the original. Don't miss out on the riches of Charnock!
Review Quotes
"For the pastor, this work is a gold mine. It will feed your soul, suggest endless sermons, and provide a main source for any series on
the attributes of God. Pastor Daniel Chamberlin has done his work well. Only God knows the labor that has gone into such a skillful effort to make
Charnock available to our busy age. Your benefit will be Pastor Chamberlin's reward.
"So great is the value of Charnock, his full-length study is still in print. But because of its size, it is seldom read. Should you have the money and the space, buy the original. It will look nice on your shelf. But I say in all sincerity, keep this little volume on your desk!"
