Knowing and Growing in Assurance of Faith
In this, the 100th book of his writing labors, Joel Beeke writes on the power and beauty of true, secure assurance of faith. Knowing and Growing shows the value of a heartfelt conviction that one belongs to Christ through faith and possesses everlasting salvation.
This title explains Dr. Beeke’s expertise and learning for anyone trapped in a background of easy believism. Or, those trapped in the opposite fear, that somehow assurance is a mark of being presumptuous. Some will crush the first sign of assurance when it appears, as if it were a danger! Dr. Beeke shares J. C. Ryle’s belief that a solid assurance is a healthy thing to have.

Heaven on Earth: A Treatise on Christian Assurance (Thomas Brooks) (#2)
$9.75One of the most important books about the subject of Christian assurance ever put into print. Having a healthy and well-founded assurance of being “in Christ” is vital to strong Christian growth and experience. There is no higher privilege than to be a child of God and to *know* that you are! — for a strong assurance brings, along with it, joy and peace in believing, strength and boldness in our witness.
This abundantly clear and valuable work, first published in 1654, still reads today like a pastor conversing with his friend.

The Christian’s Great Interest (William Guthrie)
$7.20Assurance of salvation is the subject of this highly readable, practical book, the only book the author ever wrote. With vast pastoral concern for believers struggling with uncertainty of heart about their assurance, and unbelievers living comfortably with a false assurance, Guthrie shows what a true interest in Christ is, and answers important and common questions that arise. John Owen, based on this one book, regarded Guthrie as one of the greatest ministers to have ever written.
All of Guthrie’s teaching and pastoral experience were poured into The Christian’s Great Interest – his only book. The remarkable fact that is has gone through more than eighty editions and been translated into several languages testifies to its value. This book describes in a clear and attractive style what it means to be a Christian, and how to become one.
This book is all about Christ: the Christian’s great interest should be Christ; the unbeliever needs to develop an interest in Christ. It describes in a simple, clear, and attractive style what it means to be a Christian, and how to become one.
