John Flavel shows Christ as the fountain of true joy, secured for His people by His humiliation and exaltation. By humiliation, Flavel means the incarnation- Christ's birth, ministry, and death; by exaltation, he means the four stages of resurrection, ascension, intercession, and return in judgment.
Flavel explores the glory of Christ becoming a man "to qualify and prepare Him for a full discharge of His mediatorship, in the office of our Prophet, Priest, and King."
This practical book will help you avoid making excuses for sinful fear and encourage you to trust in Christ's commitment to settle His people's feeble and trembling hearts.
