A Treatise on the Law and the Gospel by John Colquhoun (Hardcover)
Product Description
Publisher's Description
In this book, Colquhoun helps us understand the precise relationship between law and gospel. He also impresses us with the importance of knowing this relationship. Colquhoun especially excels in showing how important the law is as a believer’s rule of life without doing injury to the freeness and fullness of the gospel. By implication, he enables us to draw four practical conclusions: 1) the law shows us how to live, 2) the law as a rule of life combats both antinomianism and legalism, 3) the law shows us how to love, and 4) the law promotes true freedom.
About the Author
John Colquhoun (1748–1827) was a minister in the Church of Scotland whose sermons and writings reflect those of the Marrow brethren of the Secession church. Colquhoun’s writings are theologically astute and intensely practical. He wrote on the core doctrines of the gospel, particularly on experiential soteriology.
Endorsement
If at least every pastor read this book, the church would resolve so many issues related to the question of the relationship between the Law and the Gospel and between grace and works. I've read several books on the subject, and none are clearer than this. In fact, few theological works in general are clearer that this. Highly recommended!!
