In the Name of God, Amen

Subtitle: Rediscovering Biblical and Historical Covenants

 

About the Title: Living as we do at a time when western cultures are drifting ever further from any acknowledged accountability to God, this beautifully illustrated volume represents a call to consider our ancient foundations. The Christian reformers of past centuries were far too conscious of man's frail and fallen nature to suppose that they could go it alone apart from the true source of human virtue.  They corporately acknowledged God's sovereign will and His overriding providence. 

 

The three books that comprise this volume take a comprehensive look at that overarching covenantal theme, in hopes that the reader will better understand the overall covenantal virtues that once served our forebearers and that yielded the rich inheritance that we now enjoy.

"Here you will learn of the great covenantal inheritance of Christianity, from the legacy of the martyrs, to the preservation of the 'Book of books,' to the emergence of God's people of promise, to the gracious fulfillment of His covenant with the triumph of grace and the inheritance of Christ's Church. Here you will discover the noble heritage of our nation's Forefathers, the rise of American covenantal thought, the great Puritan doctrine of covenantal living in every sphere of life, the covenantal principles behind the War of Independence, and the nature of Christian self-government under God. But here also, you will learn rich insights into the practical application of covenantal thinking in terms of our holy responsibilities toward the family, the Church and the State. This book is simply landmark. The first and best book of its kind to appear in over a generation, In the Name of God, Amen is sure to become a staple for home educators, church leaders, seminary students, lawyers, fathers and hopefully even civil magistrates." — Doug Phillips
