The Love Of Christ (Vintage Puritan)
Ebooks Online

The Love of Christ is a series of sermons preached on Song of Solomon 4:16-6:3. For Sibbes, this Bible book is nothing else but a plain demonstration and setting forth of the love of Christ to his church, and of the love of the church to Christ . The Song of Solomon does not simply mouth a doctrine: its sensuous imagery sings its message. It is as if this love story is played on violins. The reader is thus brought, not simply to understand, but to taste and share the delights of the lovers. This is precisely what Christ' s people need, as Sibbes knew: it is not enough to be aware of Christ' s love; we must sense, grasp and enjoy it. Only then will we truly love the Lord our God with all our hearts. Includes NCX and Table of Contents hyperlinked nagivation and footnotes.

One of the greatest and most in-depth books about the song of Songs that treats it as the spiritual relationship between the soul and Our Lord Jesus Christ rather than the false modern approach that treats it as a love song instead of delving deeper into the true meaning behind it. This is one of the greatest books that I have read in the Puritan Paperback series.

I was thrilled to come across this book as well as be introduced to its author. The thesis of this book has been controversial among contemporary Christians. I have agreed with this use of Song of Solomon for many years. However, I had not come across many resources supporting this view until now. This book is a wonderful tribute to the love Christ has for His church as well as for true believers.In addition, I love the writing of Richard Sibbes. His writing is clear, biblical, and a pleasure to read. I have already purchased other books by this author and look forward to reading them.

Always a classic that will warm your heart, and woo you to your Heavenly Bridegroom. Sibbes' books are always full of Biblical wisdom, and deep love for Christ, that helps by God's grace and Spirit to draw your affections toward God, so that you more precisely want to serve Him, long to be with Him and have more of Him, and you more vehemently hate sin!

Magnifies the Lord Jesus as our all sufficient Husband.
