Description

In Mount Pisgah: A Prospect of Heaven, Thomas Case highlights the significance of 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18 as a way of providing “words of comfort over the death of our gracious relations.” He spends most of the book showcasing the consolation derived from the believer’s indissoluble union with Christ and the advantages gained by Christ’s resurrection, ascension, return, and eternal habitation with His people. Case concludes the book with words of counsel, encouraging brothers and sisters in Christ to give and receive comfort from God’s Word. Here is a valuable Puritan treatise showing how Christians should grieve, yet not as others who have no hope.
