Correction, Instruction: A Treatise of Afflictions

By Thomas Case

Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Lord, and teachest him out of thy law.
--Psalm 94:12

As Thomas Case contends, "It is a blessed thing when correction and instruction go together. The rod and the Word make up a complete blessing." Case compiles twenty lessons God teaches His children in the school of affliction, describes the nature of these covenantal teachings, explains why affliction is well suited as an instructor, and demonstrates why all such troubles are blessings. He concludes the book with informative and encouraging applications for when we encounter suffering in this world.
