In the Logos edition of The Word of Promise, all Scripture references link to original language texts and English Bible translations in your digital library and display on mouseover. Logos’ advanced tools make this resource the most useful edition for sermon preparation, theological research, and historical study.
“We may not be always able to satisfy ourselves that such and such words point to us personally; but if they shed new light on the gracious character of that God with whom we have to do, they do more than solve our doubts; for they take us into an inner region of grace, and show us something beyond a promise, ‘the exceeding riches of the grace of God.’” (Pages 41–42)
“All that God says to Israel illustrates his character as ‘the God of all grace,’ and it is upon this character that we rest our faith. Every word that reveals more of God and his love to us, strengthens our faith and elevates our joy. It is this that makes the first promise so precious, and it is this that gives fullness and power to all subsequent words of promise.” (Pages 42–43)
“He calls them ‘exceeding great and precious promises’ (2 Pet. 1:4)” (Page 54)
“the glory of the promise was its revelation of the grace of God” (Page 43)
“He needs to have his eyes opened and the scales taken off” (Page 64)
The worth of this excellent little handbook cannot fail to be appreciated by every devotional mind.
