The Christian Leaders of the Last Century

Description of The Christian Leaders of the Last Century:

“When God puts special honour on any of His servants, it is well to analyze their gifts, and to observe carefully what they were.... Records like these are deeply instructive.” In this volume, J.C. Ryle examines the lives & ministries of George Whitefield, John Wesley, Daniel Rowlands, Augustus Toplady, and other giants, drawing very definite conclusions: “I am bold to say that we want nothing new....We want nothing but the old truths rightly preached and rightly brought home to consciences, minds, and wills.” Hardcover, volume II of the collected works.

George Whitefield, John Wesley, Daniel Rowlands, Augustus Toplady, William Romaine, Henry Venn, and others give evidence that "when God takes a work in hand, nothing can stop it." 394 pages, hardcover, Charles Nolan.
