If you only read the first two chapters of this book... YOU WILL BE BLOWN AWAY.

This edition is really nice because the language is updated to modern English. This is the #1 book I give to friends. And I ask that they simply read chapters 1 and 2. This is good advice, because it seems quite doable to just read two small chapters. Seriously, if they would just read those two chapters, they would be saved from so much modern religious nonsense that goes on in churches. This book addresses many of the modern errors of Evangelicalism. It makes a solid case that Jesus is the antidote to the inventions of men who would create a Christless religion (and who would do so in the name of Christ -- yes, Owens predicts that too).

Just read the first two chapters of this book, and you will be so pleased.

The Glory of Christ His Office and Grace John Owen 9781857924749 Books Reviews

I had read this before in the Collected Works, while traveling years ago. I enjoyed the layout of this edition with the translation of Latin, margins and headings. I found it a much more enjoyable read. I would have given both editions 5 stars just for content. I think this book is sorely needed to be read and reread today. A great source to strengthen our understanding of the person and work of Jesus Christ.
To meditate on the person of Christ in all His glory will be beneficial to anyone who love the Christ of the Scriptures. Any book that can help us to see something of His glory is certainly worthy of our time and attention. John Owen was undoubtably one of the great Puritan theologians, and among the greatest theologians that the Church of Christ has ever had.

Most would agree that Owens style of writing makes him much more difficult to read than some other prominent Puritans such as Thomas Watson,Jeremiah Burroughs,Richard Baxter and Thomas Manton.Since many find Owen so difficult to read hopefully the abridgements that R.J.K.Law has done will give some of John Owens more important works the wider audience which they so richly deserve. Owens 'Meditations on the Glory of Christ ' were first published a year after his death.

John Owen being near death contemplated much on the Glory of his Saviour and these meditations are the fruit of those c9ontemplations at that time in his life.

In the chapter 'Beholding the Glory of Christ by Faith and by Sight' Owen writes on p.102 " The actual sight of Christ is what all the saints of God desire in this life more than anything else-to depart to be with Christ(Phil.123);'to be absent from the body and present with the Lord'(2Cor.58).Those who do not long for this sight of Christ's glory as their highest joy are unspiritual and blind."

When we contemplate the glory of Christ our minds soar from the things of earth and we are enabled to set our hearts on the things above.If your love for the Lord Jesus Christ is waning ,this is one of those rare books(that under God's blessing)can take that spark of love and fan it into a roaring flame.
This is a very good treatment of this extremely important doctrine of the glory of Christ. It not only explains the matter, as it also motivates us to apprehend and live our lives with this glory in sight, not only in mind. Great reading and very timely for Christianity today.
What a book! I love the Puritans especially John Owen. I want all of his books ...What insight into the WORD of GOD what's wonderful is they always use the WORD in their writings...not there own words but mostly Gods n then expound on it...
I know that John Owen's material in this book is outstanding. I have the same material already on my kindles. I purchased this book because it said it had 'real' page numbers. It doesn't. I have the Keyboard and The Paperwhite and two PCs with the app, and none of them show page numbers for this book. Enjoy the read, but don't expect page numbers. Opppps, I have now noticed that the page numbers are present on all my devices. The problem is that the page numbers begin at the start of Chapter 1. Enjoy both the read and having the page numbers.
This is the best book I've ever read besides the Holy Scriptures. John Owen is not difficult to read...Don't settle for an abridged version, please. After you read 10-15 pages, you'll be used to the format. Plus, if he is a hard read for you, you'll only be testing and conditioning your mind by reading him ;that's just another benefit from reading older books! We're not talking about a different language here, it is still English. Read what he actually wrote, nothing less!
