The Life of Faith (A. W. Pink)

The Life of Faith

What has God done for you?

What is the purpose of our lives?

God’s design is that he might be glorified and that those he has chosen might be saved to have abundant life. The life of faith is lived in the light of this truth: so that Christians must remember lack of growth brings God no honour, prayerlessness gives no glory. Yet, positively God works in the believer through Scripture to prepare them for glory and to give them happiness here and now.

A. W. Pink looks at what God has done for us, why he has done this and how we should respond. He gives us marks of grace to look for in ourselves and reassurance as to the help God provides.

1. The Design Of The Atonement

5. The Scripture And Prayer
6. The Ten Commandments

“Biblical exposition with considerable emphasis on experimental godliness. Pink is often at his best when expounding Scripture characters.” — Bill Black, The Banner of Truth
