The Complete Works of Stephen Charnock #3

by Stephen Charnock

This book is a discourse on the necessity of spiritual rebirth for entry into God's kingdom. Rooted in the author's study of scripture, this work elucidates the biblical doctrine of regeneration, examining the nature, efficient and instrumental causes of spiritual rebirth, and its vital role in reconciliation to God through Jesus Christ. The author unpacks key concepts such as the necessity of being born of water and the Spirit, the depravity of human nature, the inability of the natural man to please God or enter the kingdom of God, and the power of the Holy Spirit to transform and renew. Ultimately, this book underscores the profound significance of spiritual rebirth as the foundation for a life lived in communion with God and the attainment of eternal salvation.

[Ronnie Nichols · Rating 5 out of 5]

It is my goal to read the Complete Works of Stephen Charnock in 2020. Volume three was fantastic. Volume 1 and 2 was his opus The Existence and Attributes of God. Volume three is a his introduction to detailed systematic theology in sermon form. You will not be disappointed with the depth, clarity, and profundity of this book.
