The life of God in the soul of man

Henry Scougal.

An unknown if not for reservist.

Read a book with that title.

Said this "Christianity must not be a duty but a delight"
and this "make light any affections of this world and find diligent in loving Christ."

A book of 4 chapters. Read 2 thus far.

Henry Scougal wrote this as a letter to a friend. Subsequently Charles Wesley gave this writing to George Whitfield.

It is indeed a meaty book.

The Christian's Passion can be so decieving yet unless we really come to know the object of our love, it would not reveal the worth of our soul to the Saviour.

This book really spurned a lot of thoughts. A lot of quietness to ponder and much petitions to consider in prayer.

I suggest this book to anyone who wants to expose their heart in their lack of affections for God.

It is I believe one of the most soul searching book I ever read.
