<transcy>Knowing Christ (Connaître Christ) </transcy>
The Puritans loved the Bible and they enjoyed looking into it. They also loved the Lord Jesus, who is, of course, the central figure in the Bible. They meditated on him, focused their thoughts on him, and carefully studied all that the scriptures could say about him. They exalted him constantly and consciously in their preaching, their praises and their prayers. Mark Jones, a recognized scholar of Puritan thought, also shares this love for Christ and the Word of God. In this book, he introduces the person and glory of our Savior based on deep and life-giving Bible truths. Here is a book that will enrich our souls in the XXI th century and that will lead us in worship.
