Horatius Bonar Bücher

From the preface: The way of peace and the way of holiness lie side by side, or rather, they are one. That which bestows the one imparts the other; and he who takes the one takes the other also. The Spirit of peace is the Spirit of holiness. The God of peace is the God of holiness. In the companion work to his book God's Way of Peace, Horatius Bonar shows us that a life that has been saved is a life that is holy. The Spirit of God works in us to make us holy. The saving work of Christ on the cross has given us the victory over sin, but while we are on this earth we battle on. Read and be encouraged.

This book for those who are anxious gently directs our eyes back to Jesus. Taking the whole message of the gospel, Horatius Bonar shows us that although we cannot save ourselves by our character or our works, we can have peace in the finished work of Jesus Christ.

Excerpt from The Song of the New Creation: And Other Pieces He comes in pomp! The holy pomp of heaven, When sin is at its height, And earth is all unshriven. Scorched by no human fire, No cloud-begotten levin, His banded foes fall back, Before His fury driven. The nations of the world Into His hand are given.
