PREFACE

 

As with the first two volumes, the intention does not vary in this one.

In this volume, the content is not so much a project, as a repository for things arising for the saving action, teaching and blessed work of the Lord, and for His kingdom biblically defined. And how is it defined ? this is in terms of the Lord Jesus Christ who is its Head, and only entry, its Lord and not its icon but its saviour, for whom and by whose work His salvation has come to be freely available to repentance and the reception of His gift of redemption, through His death, and empowerment through His death-vanquishing life. Attention to these matters may vary from literally world-shattering items, to the smallest of widow's mites.

In the constitution of this Department, you find words such as those of Romans 10:9, I Corinthians 15:42ff., 57ff., Philippians 2:7-11, Ephesians 1:19-23, 2:1-16, 3:14-21, Colossians 1:16-19, Hebrews 1:1-3, 2:1-3, 9:12-28, 11:1-3, I Timothy 4:1-6, Acts 4:11-12, 20:25-32, Matthew 28:19-20.

However, Volume Three is more than an extension. In common with the other are its episodic and varied features in its field; but different is this, that the intention is to seek to cover much more in shorter form, more like a Digest, so that advantage may be taken briefly of earlier extended  expositions,  allowing pith to be presented more often.

While this is by no means the exclusive or inclusive feature of this volume (cf. Ch. 2 which is an extension of an earlier Chapter with a slightly different mode of approach), it is one which it is hoped will proved both useful and a diversity for the mind.
