Horatius BonarBesprekingen

Este clássico da literatura cristã, escrito pelo ministro presbiteriano escocês do século XIX Horatius Bonar, mais conhecido por suas belas composições de hinos, expõe a doutrina da justificação pela graça mediante a fé. Com muita clareza, precisão bíblica e devoção, Bonar aborda esse importante tema das Escrituras, elucidando a única forma pela qual o homem poderá ser achado justo diante de Deus.

Horatius Bonar (1808–1889) was born and raised in Edinburgh, Scotland, in a family with a long history of ministry in the Church of Scotland. After graduating from the University of Edinburgh in 1838 (where he studied under Dr. Thomas Chalmers), Bonar was ordained and became pastor of the North Parish, Kelso, where he remained for 28 years. He joined the Free Church of Scotland after “the Great Disruption” of 1843, and in 1853 he earned a Doctor of Divinity degree from the University of Aberdeen. In 1867 he took over ministry duties at Chalmers Memorial Church in Edinburgh, and in 1883 he was elected Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. A prolific author, he wrote and edited numerous books, biographies, articles, poems, tracts, and over 600 hymns.

This little book on the blood of Christ is simply superb. It's an excellent way to prepare your mind and heart for Christian worship or Communion, or simply for devotional reading.

This is an instruction manual for all who desire to bring men into Christ's kingdom. A puritan classic.

Bonar’s book is a helpful exposition of the doctrine of justification. It is written in a non-technical, devotional style so that Christians of all levels may read it with intellectual and spiritual profit.

A wonderful book showing how the old sacrifices could never avail to take away sin, but only pointed to the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. The latter half of the book wasn't as gripping, but all in all, it's a worthwhile read.½

Absolutely awesome book, worth reading and rereading. If you've read and enjoyed Baxter's The Reformed Pastor, this is a must.
