books by Iain Murray     books:       Life of A W Pink7 reviews Iain Murray Banner of Truth, 2004 Review of R.W. Pink's life This is a must read for Arthur W. Pink fans. I couldn't put it down. Pink's letters were a great insight into the struggles that he went through. GOD blessed him and blesses followers of Christ throuth trials. This work was an intimate portrait of one of my favorite authors.             A Scottish Christian Heritage2 reviews Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 2006 Murray Does it Again On the face of it, or judging by the title, A Scottish Christian Heritage does not sound like the kind of book many people would enjoy. It sounds like a book that will dwell on a narrow topic and one that will be of interest to only a select group of people. But those of us who appreciate the writing ministry of Iain Murray know that what he writes is always worth reading. The last few years ...             Martyn Lloyd Jones Biography First Forty Years & Fight of Faith 2 Hardcover Volumes 1899-1981 Iain Murray Banner of Truth, 2003 This is the first of two volumes describing the life of the great British preacher and teacher Martin Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981). Under his leadership Westminster Chapel of London was established as the foremost evangelical pulpit in England. Volume one contains Lloyd-Jones' childhood years in Newcastle Emlyn (Wales) and school years, up to the time he began his ministry at Westminster Chapel (1938). This authorized biography is written by ...             Spurgeon v. Hyper-Calvinism: The Battle for Gospel Preaching10 reviews Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 1995 Spurgeon's Fight For Gospel Preaching While other readers have had negative opinions of Murray's work on the doctrinal battles between Charles Spurgeon and hyper-Calvinist, I enjoyed Murray's work and thought he did a masterful job of presenting an historical account of the debate. While sadly this debate no longer rages today (some would say that is good but in light of the seeker movement and the hyper-Rick Warren gospel I believe ...             Lloyd-Jones: Messenger of Grace Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 2008             The Really Inconvenient Truths24 reviews Murray, Iain Blackstone Audiobooks, Inc., 2008 the really inconvenient truths The Author makes very sound arguments as to the underlying reasons liberals have such an intense disdain for anything that is contrary to their position. When real truth is held up and given a fair stage onto which to expound its arguments, honest logic prevails. After all real truth is meant to set us free, and any censorship of that or intentional manipulation of such should sour any reader ...             Wesley and the Men Who Followed7 reviews Iain Murray Banner of Truth, 2003 No Apologetic for Arminianism! A previous reviewer said: "With all this in mind, it is important to view Murray's book as an apologetic work, not solely of John Wesley or his preachers, but of Evangelical Arminianism." Such a comment makes one wonder if this reviewer actually read the work! Murray, far from offering an apologetic for Wesley, offers us a wonder critique of Wesley's misunderstanding of Calvinism. At the ...             Pentecost-Today?: The Biblical Basis for Understanding Revival4 reviews Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 1998 Reformed Preachers: Tolle Lege, Tolle Lege Do you ever wonder where the power in the pulpit is? Have you read about the Great Awakening and the preaching of Whitefield, Wesley, Edwards, and many others and think, Where is that today? Why is it missing? This book, I believe, can help you discover why. In one sense, the answer is disappointing. Murray, writing as a Calvinist, is convinced that there is nothing that you can do to ...             Evangelicalism Divided: A Record of Crucial Change in the Years 1950 to 200014 reviews Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 2000 A Very Interesting History of Evangelicalism within the Past Fifty Years Murray begins his work by focusing his attention on Billy Graham. He details Graham's ministry, how it was developed, how it grew in the 50's and 60's, what Graham's intents where in this period of strong growth, and how, perhaps, Graham's lack of interest in a more thorough and well developed theological stance may have caused serious pit falls and divisions between evangelicals of that time ...             Revival and Revivalism8 reviews Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 1994 Great, and sadly relevant book This book addresses the good and bad of the awakenings and revivals that have shaped the Christian culture, as well as the culture of the US in general. Murray does a great job of laying out the history of the revivals (both genuine and false) and shows us principles to avoid false revivals in the future. One of the most startling observations is found in the discussions of the results of ...             David Martyn Lloyd-Jones the First Forty Years 1899-19396 reviews Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 1982 A Great Portrait of a Great Man The First volume of this work by Murray shows the dynamism of a man who strived for Christ-Exalting Power. After reading the is biography I can only ask myself, "Can such men live again?" What made Dr. Lloyd-Jones so used by God? I suggest at least three factors: 1) He placed the origin of revival at the proper source, God. His theology of revival was supremely theocentric. He knew that true ...             Old Evangelicalism2 reviews Iain Murray Banner of Truth, 2005 Learning from history Why does God command us to repent, yet also tell us that we are unable to? Isn't the preaching of the law of God to sinners the same as preaching salvation by works? Shouldn't Christians be able to say when they were born again? Doesn't the righteousness of Christ imputed to us do away with the need for Christians to live godly lives? If Christ's work purchased salvation for a definite ...             Jonathan Edwards-A New Biography (Paperback)11 reviews Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 1996 A Soul Stirring Biography Jonathan Edwards is maybe the most exciting historical Christian to study (except for Luther. Part of this explanation is the fact that history shows us a much differnt picture than the modern stereotypes show us. Murray is to be commended for his standard setting work on Edwards. Murray is very warm and doctrine centered. As periodical "Christian History" said of Murray's work, "this is the ...             The Experimental Knowledge of Christ John Elias, Owen Milton, ... Reformation Heritage Books, 2006             Forgotten Spurgeon12 reviews Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 1972 A Great Work! This is truly a great work on Spurgeon. It is by no means trying to give a complete look at his life, but rather is focused at highlighting a few key controversies and aspects of his life that are often obscured in modern analysis of Spurgeon. That is the stated goal of the book, and it suceeds at this. Even though it is limited in scope, as I have mentioned, it still does a pretty good job ...             Puritan Hope3 reviews Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 1975 Thoughtful defense of Puritan eschatology Murray's thoughtful book challenges evangelicals to re-examine their thinking about the return of Christ. He carefully develops the basis for the sense of conviction and purpose that motivated Carey, Wilberforce and many others to do great works for Christ. Arguing that the "fullness of the Gentiles" must precede the conversion of Israel as prophecied in Romans 11, and that both of these ...             David Martyn Lloyd-Jones: The Fight of Faith 1939-19814 reviews Iain H. Murray Banner of Truth, 1990 The compelling account of the greatest preacher of our times A giant of our times such as Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones surely merits a two-volume appreciation as magnificent as that which Iain Murray has penned. The factual details recounted in this biography are not only of the most crucial significance in understanding evangelicalism in the twentieth century; but they make compelling reading. At the same time, the character of the man shines through in every ...              search for books 1899-1939, 1899-1981, 1939-1981, biblical, biography, calvinism, christian, crucial, edwards-a, evangelicalism, experimental, followed, forgotten, hardcover, heritage, hyper-calvinism, inconvenient, jonathan, knowledge, lloyd-jones, messenger, paperback, pentecost, pentecost-today, preaching, revival, revivalism, scottish, spurgeon, understanding books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
