Hello all,
I'm considering which books would be wise choices for building a small, but thorough library. Here were my ideas so far...
The Bible
Concordance
Dictionary (Bible and English)
Matthew Henry's commentary
Matthew Poole's commentary
Westminster Standards
London Confessions (1644 and 1689)
Midland Confession (1655)
Belgic Confession
Heidelberg Catechism
The Godly Man's Picture - Thomas Watson
Holiness - J.C. Ryle
Thoughts for Young Men - J.C. Ryle
How To Be A Man - Harvey Newcomb
How To Be A Lady - Harvey Newcomb
The Family At Home - Gorham Abbott
Everlasting Righteousness - Horatius Bonar
All of Grace - C.H. Spurgeon
Bruised Reed - Richard Sibbes
A Lifting Up For The Downcast - William Bridge
Pilgrim's Progress - John Bunyan
------------------------------
I'm trying to consider a few really good works that I will use time and time again, rather than a lot of mediocre works. I would appreciate any advice on any additions?
As far as a systematic theology book, what about Calvin's Institutes or Ames' "Marrow of Theology"
Grace and Peace in Christ Jesus
