Ligonier Ministries recently released a special edition of R.C. Sproul’s classic work,
The Holiness of God. The book was originally published in 1985 and over the last 25 years it has appeared in a variety of formats including hardcover, full-sized paperback, pocket-sized paperback, a translated Spanish paperback, and also as an e-book and audio book.
For the 2010 paperback printing Ligonier requested an endorsement from C.J., which he gladly penned. Here’s what C.J. wrote:
“When people ask me which books have most marked my life and ministry, I never fail to mention
The Holiness of God—its effect on me has been revolutionary. And the message of this book has never been more needed. If we fail to grasp God's holy character, we will never know God truly, we will never understand ourselves accurately, and we will never comprehend the significance of the cross. On such a critical truth, we need biblical clarity and appropriate solemnity, both of which mark this classic work by my friend R.C. Sproul.”
