One is certainly left with that impression after reading his six sermons on Isaiah 38, a chapter that records the illness that afflicted King Hezekiah and his reaction to it. Although various sicknesses are common to all humanity, yet people react in very different ways when such trials are visited upon them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a wonderful blend of faithful exposition, keen insight, and practical application, Bruce urges his hearers to ‘take heed to the various aspects of this account, that we may learn how to conduct ourselves in the event of our suffering some serious disease; thus, learning from King Hezekiah’s behaviour, we may come to obtain the same comfort he experienced.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eAuthor\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobert Bruce (c.1554-1631)\u003c\/strong\u003e was a minister in the city of Edinburgh, and a leader in the Reformed movement in Scotland. He first studied law in St Andrews, France, and Louvain, but when he returned to Scotland, changed course and focused his attention on becoming a minister in the Kirk. He was much influenced by Andrew Melville, the well-respected academic and leader within Presbyterianism. He became minister of St Giles’ in Edinburgh in 1587, and was Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland in 1588 and again in 1592. He had been a favourite of the King, James VI, but after 1596, when relations between James and Scotland’s Presbyterians had soured, Bruce spent much of the rest of his life in enforced exile.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCover: Softcover\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Pages: 208\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Banner of Truth Trust\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: 2026\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bruce, Robert","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48238297383153,"sku":"9781800405875","price":13.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0449\/8731\/8425\/files\/9781800405875.png?v=1780325285","url":"https:\/\/reformedbookservices.com\/products\/puritan-paperbacks-the-way-to-true-peace-and-rest","provider":"Reformed Book Services","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
