We all become like the objects we worship. How important then that Christians should be focused on the ‘Great God of Wonders’ revealed in Scripture. To think about God aright is the most exciting occupation possible for any created being’, says Maurice Roberts. In every aspect of the Christian life dealt with in these articles, Roberts’ emphasis is always on ‘the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus’. These writings, originally published in the Banner of Truth magazine, provide thought-provoking, spiritually invigorating, practical and warmly biblical reading.
