Les chrtiens peuvent facilement avoir l'impression que Jsus est perptuellement du et frustr par leur marche chrtienne, voire qu'il est mme sur le point de les abandonner. Ils savent ce que Jsus a fait pour eux, mais ils ont souvent une connaissance superficielle de sa personne. Quels sont les sentiments qui l'animent lorsqu'il considre les pchs et les checs de son peuple ? Dans Matthieu 11, Jsus se dcrit comme tant doux et humble de cur , dsirant ardemment que son peuple trouve le repos en lui. Ce livre s'inspire de ses paroles, plongeant dans les passages de la Bible qui parlent de l'affection de Christ pour les pcheurs afin d'encourager les croyants las et chancelants dans leur cheminement vers le ciel. Dane C. Ortlund (Ph. D., Wheaton College) est le pasteur principal de la Naperville Presbyterian Church Naperville, Illinois. Dane et sa femme, Stacey, ont cinq enfants.… (plus d'informations)
I was looking forward to reading this after coming across several positive reviews, but after getting to page 66 (out of a total of 216), I gave myself permission to stop. I spent time trying to figure out why I didn’t want to finish this book, which reflects on the words of Jesus “Come to me all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28.
It’s not the verse and certainly not who said it, but I just couldn’t stay focused on the pages. The writing was just too “academic” for me, with footnotes on almost every page. I wanted a writing style I could relate to without having to interpret and translate it. I’m not criticizing the theology or the author, but this book just wasn’t for me. ( )
This is such a beautiful book! It is filled with biblical truth and encouragement. Every Christian can benefit from reading about the One who is Gentle and Lowly to know Christ more deeply. ( )
This book helps Christians understand the heart of Christ in the midst of all the suffering and failures of life. Drawing from Puritan theologians, Ortlund examines the topic from a Reformed doctrinal viewpoint. While the book is devotional in nature, the author's writing style is suited more towards Christians with a solid theological grounding. ( )
This is a fascinating book! Looking at the Bible through the focus of Jesus's heart. The depth of His love is still unfathomable from the viewpoint of fallen people. However, it is good to realize that even with all our wounds, defects, mistakes, and obstinances, Jesus still enfolds us with His arms of grace and mercy and stands beside us as we try to navigate this fallen world. A must-read! ( )
"...Then will come the time, when Christ will sweetly invite his spouse to enter in with him into the palace of his glory, which he had been preparing for her from the foundation of the world, and shall as it were take her by the hand, and lead her in with him: and this glorious bridegroom and bride shall with all their shining ornaments, ascend up together into the heaven of heaven; the whole multitude of glorious angels waiting upon them: and this Son and daughter of God shall, in their united glory and joy, present themselves together before the Father; when Christ shall say, "Here am I, and the children which thou hast given me": and they both shall in that relation and union, together receive the Father's blessing: and shall thenceforth rejoice together, in consummate, uninterrupted, immutable, and everlasting glory, in the love and embrace of each other, and joint enjoyment of the love of the Father." -- Jonathan Edwards
