The Letters of Ruth Bryan

Ruth Bryan’s letters are remarkably like Samuel Rutherford’s, closely resembling them in most winning, unwearied, and gloriously endless eulogy of the King in His beauty. They are admirably fitted to allure believers into a nearer fellowship with the Lord Jesus. Many who are already standing within holy ground, but only in the Court of the Gentiles, may be drawn by them to desire a place in the inner sanctuary of Israel, of the peculiar people, of the kingdom of priests; for they are calculated in no ordinary manner to humble, to elevate, to refresh and enliven the reader.

There are few Ruth Bryans in these days, the Church greatly needs more; and we are therefore thankful to God that she ‘being dead yet speaketh.’

These nineteenth-century letters are a rich treasury of mature, experiential, and practical divinity that still meets the needs of believers today. Would you like guidance in learning how to live more closely to Christ, how to walk more by faith in adversity, and how to lay hold of God in prayer? Read this book prayerfully, preferably as a daily devotional, and let Ruth Bryan be your spiritual mentor.
