Portraits of Faithful Saints

Portraits of Faithful Saints

Martin Luther, Margaret MacLauchlan, Margaret Wilson, Maccovius, J. Gresham Machen.

Who are these people, and what do they have in common? They are some of the fifty-two portraits “drawn” for us in Portraits of Faithful Saints by Prof. Herman Hanko.

Read of Luther’s bold defense of the truth at the Diet of Worms. Be humbled by the faithfulness of the two Margarets in their martyrdom. Praise God for his provision of men like Machen to reform the church even in modern times.

Made up of brief biographies of faithful New Testament believers, this book is easy to read and an encouragement to us today, fellow saints born again by the sovereign grace of God!

“To study church history is to come to know the work of God in Christ among his people.”—Hugh L .Williams, foreword to Portraits of Faithful Saints

As To Conditions (6)

It was not my purpose originally at this stage of my discussion on the question of conditions to reply to the writing of the Rev. Petter in Concordia. The purpose of my writing is not to carry on a controversy, but rather to give a positive, and more or less systematic, exposition of the whole subject from a Reformed point of view. And it certainly is not conducive to the realization of this purpose to pay too much attention to what others write and especially to the writing of the Rev. A. Petter. The brother will therefore have to have a little patience, and if necessary I will reply to him at the end of my series.

Nevertheless, I can no longer refrain from pointing to a grave error in the Rev. Petter’s method of attacking me in Concordia and especially to his misrepresentation of what I taught in the past on the question of conditions. The brother leaves the impression with his readers that I, too, have changed my mind, and that therefore our churches cannot safely follow so untrustworthy a leadership as I offer them. I therefore want to state here emphatically that I always opposed the standpoint of the Rev. Petter that faith is a condition and that the covenant is conditional.
