Description: Dr R. J. K. Law has produced a splendidly readable abridgement of one of the greatest Christian classics of all time, bringing Owen's rich teaching to a much wider readership. Of the peculiar and distinct communion which the saints have with the Father, with Jesus Christ the Son of God & Of Communion with The Holy Ghost. John Owen believed that that communion with God lies at the heart of the Christian life. With Paul he recognised that through the Son we have access by the Spirit to the Father. He never lost the sense of amazement expressed by John: ‘Our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ’. In this outstanding book he explains the nature of this communion and describes the many privileges it brings.

Communion with God was written in a day, like our own, when the doctrine of the Trinity was under attack and the Christian faith was being reduced either to rationalism on the one hand or mysticism on the other. His exposition shows that nothing is more vital to spiritual well-being than a practical knowledge of what this doctrine means.

R.J.K. Law’s worthy abridgement of John Owen’s spiritual classic Communion with God, is perhaps the best text ever written on the foundation and function of the believers communion (that is, their “mutual relation”) with God.  A mine of Trinitarian theology, Owen presents the Christian life as one of secure though fragile, constant yet varied, blissful but strenuous communion with God.  In the third chapter, while reflecting on the love “distinctly ascribed to the Father,” Owen records, “The greatest sorrow and burden you can lay on the Father, the greatest unkindness you can do to him is not to believe that he loves you.”  Coming from the same man who penned The Death of Death in the Death of Christ, these are truly remarkable and profound words.  There is hardly a more suitable book to extol the glory of God’s Triune affection for His own great name and His people’s eternal good. Among the best experimental/devotional books ever written. Make sure you have a copy of this on your shelf!
