I know most here are readers. I have never been an avid reader but I try.
I have recently discovered, or re-discovered Arthur Pink.

Many of his writings are free on the web,
http://www.pbministries.org/books/pi...ks_archive.htm

For me anyway, Pink speaks to my heart, not my head.
It is like a good friend that looks you in the eye and says,

You can't fool me, I know you, now get it together, we are
dealing with the God of the universe here.

If you have never read Pink, I highly recommend him.

Pink's writings have been of great benefit to me through the years.

Conscience may lash us, but it cannot replenish a languishing life. Conscience may be God's word and minister to you, telling you of your faults and your follies and your destitution. It may point out, but it will never supply you. Christ must give you new life. Hart has well expressed it: "He to the feeble and the faint, His mighty aid makes known; and when their languid life is spent, supplies it with His own." - J. K. Popham

Pink is a man with impeccable Calvinistic credentials and I agree he does not speak just to "THE HEAD" but to the heart.

Hope you have/had a good Lord's day,
Bill

AW Pink is awsome!!!

Pink is most well known for his The Sovereignty of God. But some of his best works are his least known.

I greatly enjoyed Pink's book on Elijah (published by Banner of Truth) when I read it recently.

Also, he has a book about prayer, (I think it's called Effectual Prayer) which I believe is a must read for anyone who struggles with "the duty" of prayer.

His Sovereignty of God was used powerfully by the Lord in my life too.

"To our mind, either everything or nothing must be held in subjection to the will and providence of God. Even the wickedness of ungodly men is restricted by predestination, so that the wrath of man shall praise God, and the remainder of wrath He will restrain." - GILBERT BEEBE (1800-1881)

Sovereignty of God is one of my favorites. His A Study of Dispensationalism is a good refutation from a former dispensationalist.

His Studies on Saving Faith was part of my first exposure to 'real' Calvinism versus the straw man of such tracts as, TULIP The Deadly Flower put out by Sword of the Lord. If that book doesn't make you question your salvation, you need to reread it.

His book on prayer is, A Guide to Fervent Prayer.

Many of his books are now in audio format at, http://www.sermonaudio.com/search.as...%5EW%2E%5EPink

"Whatever the cause, the Calvinists were the only fighting Protestants. It was they whose faith gave them courage to stand up for the Reformation. In England, Scotland, France, Holland, they,... did the work, and but for them the Reformation would have been crushed... If it had not been for Calvinists,... and whatever you like to call them, the Pope and Philip would have won, and we should either be Papists or Socialists." ~ Sir John Skelton

Yes, That's the one. Excellent book!

to that !!


I find his works to be profound. I would compare him to one of your best friends, who knows you better than almost anyone, saying, "Here, I wrote this just for you".
