<transcy> A Peculiar Glory (Une gloire particulière)</transcy>

In this book, John Piper shows us the unique ability of the Word to authenticate itself by shining the glory of God in a way that, with the help of the Holy Spirit, illuminates the eyes of our hearts. He sets out to demonstrate that the glory of God is not only the source of the soul's happiness, but also the foundation of our confidence in the Scriptures.
