Learning in Christ’s School (Ralph Venning) 2026 ed.

Description Product Details Reviews (0) Learning in Christ’s School To be a Christian is to be a learner. In this unique account of growth in grace, ‘babes’, ‘little children’, ‘young men’ and ‘fathers’ are the stages through which the learners in Christ’s school pass on their way to the ‘academy of heaven’. While supporting and comforting beginners in the school of grace, Venning encourages all Christians to make further progress towards ‘the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ’ (Eph. 4:13). Noting the eagerness of the newborn, the delight of the little child, the vigor of the young, and the wisdom of the mature, cannot but challenge mediocrity; seeing their foibles, weaknesses, and vulnerability will, on the other hand, challenge presumption. The book contains a much-needed message for today. ‘Reaching and pressing forward, as Paul did, is the duty of all…’ – Ralph Venning Table of Contents Publisher’s Foreword ixAdvertisement xiAuthor’s Preface xiii1 Introduction – The purpose and scope of these sermons, explained and applied 32 Babes in Christ, their attainments and deficiencies (1 Corinthians 3:1, 2 and Hebrews 5:11-14) 473 Little children in Christ, their attainments of knowledge, the means of gaining it, and their privileges (1 John 2:13) 1974 Young Men in Christ, their attainment of strength, the means by which it is possessed, and the reality of conflict and conquest (1 John 2:13, 14) 2455 Fathers in Israel, their characteristics and abilities (1 John 2:13, 14) 2836 Conclusions: The benefit of knowing where one belongs reaching forward 287Appendix – Analysis
