The Dejected Soul's Cure
Author: Christopher Love
Publisher: Soli Deo Gloria Publications
ISBN: 9781573581127
Category : Angels
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
One of the things that is common to true believers is a sense of unworthiness because of sin. This may cause us to doubt both ourselves and God's love for us. Here is an insightful handling of these matters by one of the most pastoral of the Puritans. Love's conclusion is that the great enemy of our souls will do all he can to take our eyes off of our Savior, even if that means an over-preoccupation with sin and self. This book gives Scriptural guidelines to recover a sense of God's love, to give comfort to those who are convicted, and to convict those who may be falsely comforted. This is important reading for anyone who longs to be more sanctified and satisfied. There is also another work by Christopher Love at the end of this book called "A Treatise of Angels."

ISBN: 0593193539
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

Christ's Compassion in Our Trials
Author: John Durant
Publisher: Puritan Publications
ISBN: 1626635005
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
"Christ’s Compassion in Our Trials" is a weighty exploration of the struggles and discouragements that Christians may face when approaching Christ for help, as illustrated through the historical narrative of the Canaanite woman. Authored by Puritan John Durant (1620-1686), this work offers a deeply rooted theological perspective grounded in Scripture, particularly focusing on the interaction between Christ and the Canaanite woman found in Matthew 15:21-28. In this historical narrative, Durant emphasizes that, much like the Canaanite woman, Christians often encounter feelings of inadequacy and discouragement as they seek help from Christ. The woman approaches Jesus, fully aware of her unworthiness as a Gentile, yet her desperation for her daughter’s healing drives her to persist in faith. Durant illustrates that despite her initial rejection and the seemingly harsh words of Christ—who initially does not respond to her pleas—her unwavering faith ultimately prevails. He captures the essence of her faith as she boldly claims her need for mercy, which serves as a model for believers facing their own challenges and obstacles. Durant further expounds on several key themes drawn from the Scriptures, including the idea that the prayers and faith of believing parents hold significant weight in seeking mercy for their children. He highlights the truth found in 1 Timothy 4:8, where godliness is said to have promise for the present life and that which is to come, encouraging readers to persist in their petitions to God. By relating the woman’s experience to their own lives, Durant reassures believers that their struggles and feelings of discouragement are not uncommon, and he encourages them to press on in faith. Throughout the text, Durant provides practical guidance on how to navigate these discouragements. He urges believers to examine the lawfulness of their requests, the condition of their hearts, and their motives when approaching Christ. He posits that faith is not merely about the outcome but about the relationship established through prayer and supplication. Durant’s insights invite readers to understand that even when circumstances appear dire or when prayers seem unanswered, God’s compassion and mercy remain ever-present. In sum, “Christ’s Compassion in Our Trials” serves as both a theological treatise and a source of encouragement for believers. By studying the interaction between Christ and the Canaanite woman, Durant masterfully illustrates the perseverance of faith amid discouragement. He provides a compelling reminder that, regardless of the challenges faced, coming to Christ with sincerity and faith can lead to spiritual and physical blessings. The narrative not only comforts those who are struggling but also reaffirms the enduring promise that Christ is accessible to all who earnestly seek Him, a message that resonates powerfully through the ages.
