The PRecious Things of God

A Truly Precious Comfort

If you have never stumbled across the writings of Octavius Winslow, you don't know the treasure that awaits your discovery. This particular work, "The Precious Things of God" is one of his finest! Although written in older language, the words will come alive to every modern heart. When you read this book, you feel as though Winslow is sitting beside you, pleading the very precious truths and real promises of God. He is constantly reminding the Christian of his/her secured relationship with God because of the righteousness of Christ. The volume is packed with theological insight, while written in a pastoral or devotional style that makes for easy reading. (Once a few pages have been read, one grows accustomed to the 19th century flow of argument) I highly recommend the book to a person undergoing a season of trial or hardship. The words on every page help lift sullen eyes to see all things with a true spiritual perception. This is an amazing work!!!

Excellent. Read this with great Joy! Heart Devotion!

Written in a style reminding one of the puritans whose hearts were aflame with love for God. Who really appreciated the Things of God and could see with a spiritual eye what the natural man will never see. This book has also been of great benefit to me as an outline in several bible studies.
