The Sinner's Sanctuary

Gospel Freedom from Death, Condemnation, and the Law

Herausgeber: Searle, David

Beschreibung

The Sinner's Sanctuary consists of a series of forty sermons on Romans 8:1-15. They were preached by Hugh Binning, minister in Govan, now part of Glasgow, on the south bank of the River Clyde in the west of Scotland. Walking readers through the apostle Paul's argument, Binning carefully explains the safety and freedom saved sinners experience through life united to Christ and walking according to His Spirit. The results are particularly powerful and comforting for believers. These sermons are representative of Binning's all-too-brief ministry from 1650 until his death in 1653 at the age of twenty-six. He was, by any measure, a remarkable minister.

Autor

Hugh Binning (1627-1653) was a Scottish Covenanter who served as a professor at the University of Glasgow and a minister of Govan. Binning showed great promise as a student from a young age. He entered Glasgow University at the age of thirteen and finished his master's degree and had become a professor of philosophy at the university by the time he was nineteen. Two years later he married Barbara Simpson, the daughter of a minister from Ireland, and the couple had a son, John. The call to the ministry was strong, though, and so he set out to learn theology. When he was twenty-two, he took up the pastorate at Govan, where he served until his death from consumption at the age of twenty-six. All his writings were collected posthumously.
