从埃及到迦南 From Egypt to Canaan - simpl. script
本書描述以色列人走過曠野的路程。他們經過試煉、信心、蒙福、埋怨、得勝的日子。從這些舊約客旅身上,我們找到許多現代情操和試探的寫照。現代信徒活在另一種形式的“埃及”,在今世的“曠野”中飄流,而惟有得勝的基督徒居住在榮耀的“迦南”。
約翰·理祁(John Ritchie,1857-1930)是一位令人敬佩的聖經教師。他在蘇格蘭、威爾斯、英格蘭等地傳道,牧養各處的聚會。他的著作頗豐,筆法簡潔有力,用字精確,按聖經的正意,解釋屬靈的教訓,對青年信徒幫助尤深。
From Egypt to Canaan examines the fascinating record of the journey of the children of Israel across hundreds of miles of barren desert to reach at last their promised land. This book shows that their journey is our journey too; our Christian lives leading onward from the time of our salvation, "redeemed by the precious blood of Christ", to fulfillment of God's purposes for us in Christ, with many trials and problems on the way. These things written beforehand were written for our learning, and it is profitable to read about them to learn again of the power and grace of God, the love and sacrifice of our Savior, and the never-failing resources available for us as we travel through the wilderness of this world.
