Sinopsis

Discover how grace governs salvation from start to finish.

In this classic theological work, the author explores how God’s free favor shapes the journey of salvation. It contrasts the old notion of a works-based path with the gospel’s grace-driven arrangement, showing why righteousness comes from Christ and the Spirit, not human effort. This edition clarifies key distinctions between the covenant of grace and the covenant of works, helping readers understand justification, sanctification, and the ultimate hope of glory.

Designed for thoughtful readers, the book examines how divine influence is essential for faith, obedience, and true holiness. It invites careful reflection on one’s foundation for hope and invites believers to pursue a life of reliance on grace rather than reliance on self-righteousness.

  • Clear explanation of grace, faith, and justification
  • Contrast between covenants of works and grace
  • Discussion of righteousness as God’s gift, not human merit
  • Practical, devotional guidance for living by grace

Ideal for readers seeking a firm, biblically rooted understanding of salvation and its divine source.

Reseña del editor

Excerpt from The Reign of Grace: From Its Rise to Its Consummation

However the doctrine of Reigning Grace may be decried as licentious, it is that very truth which God in all ages has delighted to honour; which the divine Spirit has owned for the information and comfort, for the holiness and happiness of sinful men. Were I not fully persuaded of this, rather than appear as an advocate for it, I would condemn my tongue to everlasting silence, and my pen to perpetual rest.

Excerpt from The Reign of Grace: From Its Rise to Its Consummation

I shall not offer any apology to the Public, on behalf of the ensuing Treatise. For if the leading sentiments adopted and defended in it correspond with the unerring oracles, I have no apprehensions from the frowns of men: and if not, it would be impossible, by the most laboured apology, to justify my conduct.

The doctrine of sovereign grace is here maintained, and handled in a practical manner. It has been my endeavour, in the following pages, not only to state and defend the capital truths of the gospel, in a doctrinal way; but also to point out their peculiar importance, as happily adapted to awaken the conscience, and comfort the heart; to elevate the affections, and influence the whole conduct in the way of holiness.

To this Edition of The Reign of Grace I have made large additions. The principal of which is, an entire chapter upon Election ; which renders the scheme of doctrines more complete, and the contents of the book more answerable to the title. I also thought it my duty, in a particular manner, to bear a public testimony to that important part of revealed truth; having in my yonger years greatly opposed it, in a Poem On absolute Predestination.
