Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sermons on the Eighth Chapter of the Epistle to the Romans, (Verses 1-4) Of the many excellent works which we gave had the privilege of accessible to Christian readers by means of this series of reprints, there has been no one of which we have been led to form a higher estimate than we have formed of that reproduced in this volume. It might be supposed that a quarto volume occupied with the exposition of four verses would be tedious; but we do not think that the reader will find it so. Indeed, it may be said that while these four verses are formally the subject of the volume, its subject substantially is the gospel system of redemption and salvation; - salvation both in its procurement by the obedience and death of the incarnate Son of God, and in its application, in all its steps, from the no-condemnation with which the eighth chapter of the Epistle to the Romans begins, to the no-separation with which it closes. Dr Jacomb´s exposition is at once learned and practical, the production of an erudite theologian and an earnest Christian. It deals with the controversies that have been raised respecting the great doctrines of the faith delivered to the saints - especially with some of the most unimportant parts of the Socinian and Romish controversies - and it handles them with great ingenuity and dialectic skill. But it deals also with things pertaining more directly to practical matters of life and godliness; with the hopes and the fears, the encouragements and the trials, the duties and the destinies of the humble, earnest disciple of Christ. We know few books in which there is a finer blending of the doctrinal and the practical, a richer exhibition of the fulness of the grace that is in Christ, a more uncompromising demand of carefulness in maintaining good works on the part of those who have believed in Christ. By way of introducing the author to such readers as may not be familiar with his name, we shall content ourselves with transcribing (1) the notice of him contained in Anthony a Wood´s "Athenæ Oxonienses;" (2) the account that is given of him in Palmer´s edition of Calamy´s Nonconformist´s Memorial; and (3) the estimate of his character given by Dr Bates in his funeral sermon; only omitting from the second of these the extracts borrowed into it from the third. To these we shall add (4) a few brief notes of our own. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
