The Great Trials of Bible Characters by Clarence Macartney and published by Classics Publications.
Throughout his many years of ministry, Dr Clarence Macartney turned again and again to the lives of great Bible characters to find practical lessons for spiritual living. As he examines the trials of people such as Job, Abraham, Daniel and Peter, he uses the term “trial” in its “broad and scriptural meaning, that is, as a test. Life is indeed a trial, a probation, the purpose of which is to test us, to see what is in our hearts, to develop moral and spiritual qualities within us, with a view to their complete unfolding... in the life to come.”
These sermons contain a wealth of illustrations and quotations that will deepen the reader’s insight and appreciation of Biblical truth, and provide the pastor, speaker or believer with a thought-provoking resource for Bible study of sermon preparation.
