Christ All, and in All

We seek happiness in this world and believe we have what it takes to live the good life, only to reap discontent and misery. In Christ Is All, and in All, Ralph Robinson provides the remedy by setting Christ before us as the all-sufficient One. Robinson begins by explaining from Colossians 3:11 how Jesus is the source and guarantee of every blessing for all who are joined to Him in faith. Robinson then spends the remainder of the book investigating a host of metaphors used throughout Scripture that highlight our greatest needs and shows how they are met in Jesus. Discussing how Christ is our life, food, light, shepherd, vine, and so much more, Robinson displays the supreme excellence of knowing our Lord. Read this book and be overwhelmed with the preciousness of Christ. And like Robinson, revel in Christ as the greatest treasure and value Him above all else.

Endorsement

“Let not this book be received in vain which the good hand of providence now tenders unto you. This field is full of gospel treasures dug out of Scripture mines for your enriching in the knowledge of Christ. And what knowledge is so necessary, excellent, or profitable? For from hence do issue all things which pertain unto life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). Hereby our love to Christ is enflamed, our longings after Him enlarged, our faith in Him confirmed, our joys in Him raised; yea, by the knowledge of Him He is possessed and improved, both for growth in all graces, augmenting of all spiritual comforts, and preparation for everlasting glory.”
—Simond Ash, Edmund Calamy, and William Taylor
