Christ Crucified: Or, The Marrow of the Gospel, Evidently Set Forth in 72 Sermons on the Whole Fifty-third Chapter of Isaiah #2

The title continues: 'Wherein the text is clearly and judicially opened, and a great many most apposite, truly spiritual, and very edifying points of doctrine, in a delectable variety, drawn from it; with choice and excellent practical improvements thereof. Wherein also several adversaries of the truth, as Socinians, Arminians, Arians, and Antinomians, are solidly and fully refuted. Besides, many errors in practice incident to professors, otherwise sound and orthodox in their opinions, are discovered; and many grave, deep, and very important cases of conscience, satisfyingly discussed.' The preface, signed by Thomas Ridgley (and 22 others), notes that this work 'equals, at least, if it does not exceed his other writings.' This book aims to 'prove contributive to the bringing you to a considerable growth in holiness.'

CHARLES HADDON SPURGEON ON READING

'As the apostle says to Timothy, so also he says to everyone, 'Give yourself to reading.' He who will not use the thoughts of other men's brains proves that he has no brains of his own. You need to read. Renounce as much as you will all light literature, but study as much as possible sound theological works, especially the Puritanic writers, and expositions of the Bible. The best way for you to spend your leisure is to be either reading or praying.'
