Now, where should you start? Someone recently asked me to make a list of some of the books I have in mind that are substance, not suds. Let me stress at the outset that I don’t think reading manybooks is important — not for the average person anyway. Reading good books — solid books, non-sudsy books, substantial books — is really important. And rea...
Roland Bainton’s Here I Standis a biography of that epoch-making Martin Luther in the 1500s. David Daniell’s biography William Tyndale: A Biographygives us a taste of a period of history in which Christians burned Christians for reading the Bible. William Tyndale translated the Bible from Greek into English for the first time in the 1500s. He was k...
Courtney Anderson’s To the Golden Shore: The Life of Adoniram Judsontells of the man who went out from America to do missions in Burma, where he almost went insane with grief and loneliness. It is a great, soul-strengthening story. John Paton’s autobiography, John G. Paton: The Autobiography of the Pioneer Missionary to the New Hebrides, is worth i...
First, two by J.I. Packer. Get Knowing God. Get A Quest for Godliness: The Puritan Vision of the Christian Life, which is a collection of shorter writings. You don’t have to read it straight through. In fact, in that book, Packer’s introduction to John Owen’s Death of Deathis probably one of the most influential short essays in the contemporary Ref...
I would point you to two by John Stott: Basic Christianity and The Cross of Christ. There are no Stotts left that I know of. Even the Brits who are brilliant today seem to want to communicate like Americans (casual/careless). We need Stott, not only for his biblical faithfulness, but also for his impeccable clarity and precision and orderliness. Jo...
This is the place to make sure that John Owen gets included. After Jonathan Edwards, outside the Bible, no one has fed my soul more deeply than this greatest Puritan writer who died in 1683. His small classic On the Mortification of Sin is the fullest and best exposition and application of Romans 8:13that I know of: “If you live according to the fl...
John Bunyan’s The Pilgrim’s Progress has sold more books than any other book outside the Bible. Historically, Pilgrim’s Progressis off-the-charts helpful and influential. If you’ve never read that classic, go there. Believe it or not, I did not read C.S. Lewis’s Narnia children’s books until my mid-thirties. I didn’t grow up in a home that even kne...
Let me close with a caution: Beware of reading for quantity to impress anyone. Read for your soul. If we could live a thousand years, and experience a thousand relationships in the thousand times and places and cultures, perhaps we wouldn’t need books in order to (eventually) become wise. But our lives are short, and God has been merciful to give u...

Feb 2, 2015 · No, not at all. For we have already charged that all, both Jews and Greeks, are under sin ” ( Romans 3:9 ). And he leaves no doubt about his conclusion in the next verse: “None is righteous, no, not one” (verse 10) and in verse 12, “No one does good, not even one.”.

- Human Nature in its Fourfold State (1964) by Thomas Boston. Thomas Boston (1676-1732) was a minister in the Church in Scotland. His classic work, Human Nature in its Fourfold State, discusses mankind in the state of innocence before the fall, the state of nature-total depravity among the unregenerate, the state of grace (recovery begun) among the regenerate, and the eternal state-a state of consummate happiness or misery.
