Description

The essence of Christianity is love. God is love, said the Apostle John. Obedience to God's commands is nothing more than a manifestation of our love to God. The Ten Commandments show how we are to love God and one another. Love, then, is of the utmost importance in true biblical Christianity. In this book, first written in the 17th century, and out of print since 1812, Thomas Vincent, known for his lectures on the Shorter Catechism of the Westminster Confession of Faith, expounds 1 Peter 1:8, whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see Him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable, and full of glory. This is one of the most poignant, tender books ever to come from a Puritan pen.
