Grace and Truth; Under Twelve Different Aspects William Paton Mackay

In this excellent book of advice and teaching for Christian believers, W. P. Mackay discusses a range of topics surrounding God and the spiritual life. This guide contains a range of profound lessons reminding us of the nature of the holy spirit, and the deeds all good Christians must carry out in life. Much of the book is composed as a conversation between two believers; this lively style ensures readers can stay engaged and understand better the teaching offered. The author frequently quotes Biblical scripture, that readers are assured of the truth and correctness of this book's words. We are reminded that the forgiveness of sins is not a matter of simply asking God; living a virtuous life mindful of one's forgiven soul is how great Christians can proceed in authentic faith. The differences between true service of the Lord, and service performed without truth in the heart, is discussed. We are also offered cautionary lessons, informing us of the dangers of the Devil.
