The contents might have seemed of little value, but to some they were altogether priceless. They were the notebooks and sermon notes of Robert Murray M’Cheyne, the godly and devoted minister of St Peter’s Church, Dundee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom these papers, lodged in the library of New College, Edinburgh, Dr Michael D. McMullen has transcribed the sermons found in this set of three volumes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are indeed a precious treasure. Whether based on Old Testament or New, every sermon is full of Christ: the sinners need of Him, the fullness of His grace, the happiness of those who come to Him, and the danger of stopping short of genuine faith in Him. They will remind preachers and ordinary Christians alike that to preach Christ aright, one must first know Him, and live in the atmosphere of His love.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eAuthor\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Murray M‘Cheyne\u003c\/strong\u003e (1813-43) was widely regarded as one of the most saintly and able young ministers of his day. Entering Edinburgh University in 1827, he gained prizes in all the classes he attended. In 1831 he commenced his divinity studies under Thomas Chalmers at the Edinburgh Divinity Hall. M‘Cheyne’s early interests were modern languages, poetry, and gymnastics. The death of his older brother David in July 1831 made a deep impression on him spiritually. His reading soon after of Dickson’s\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eSum of Saving Knowledge\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ebrought him into a new relationship of peace and acceptance with God.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn July 1835 M‘Cheyne was licensed by the Presbytery of Annan, and in November became assistant to John Bonar at Larbert and Dunipace. In November 1836 he was ordained to the new charge of St Peter’s, Dundee, a largely industrial parish which did not help his delicate health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eM‘Cheyne’s gifts as a preacher and as a godly man brought him increasing popularity. The Communion seasons at St Peter’s were especially noted for the sense of God’s presence and power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCover: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Pages: 197\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Banner of Truth Trust\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: June 1, 2004\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"M'Cheyne, R.M.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39688964833433,"sku":"9780851518756","price":29.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0449\/8731\/8425\/files\/9780851518756.png?v=1761744653","url":"https:\/\/reformedbookservices.com\/products\/9780851518756_-sermons-on-hebrews","provider":"Reformed Book Services","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
