Collected Works of Rev William Evans Vol. 1

The Collected Works of Rev William Evans Vol. I includes The Great Doctrines of the Bible and The Shepherd Psalm. The Great Doctrines of the Bible offers a well-organized, clearly outlined and comprehensive examination of the major doctrines of the Christian faith. Evans provides a strong foundation and framework for understanding the essential teachings of the faith in this handy reference, which also includes 80 different subjects arranged topically in addition to the key doctrines treated. "The doctrines herein treated are dealt with from the standpoint of Biblical rather than Dogmatic theology. This is evident from the plan which is followed in the work, namely, to gather together all the Scripture passages dealing with the subject under consideration, and from them choose a required number that may be called representative; then seek to understand the meaning of these references by the study of the text itself as well as its context and parallel passages; and finally, from the selected proof-texts, formulate the doctrinal teaching, and place such results under appropriate headings. The Shepherd Psalm is a well known Psalm. Untold numbers of sermons have been preached on it. Books without number have been printed in attempts to set forth its life, depth, richness, and beauty. Doubtless much more will be written and spoken concerning this charming pastoral symphony-and, after that, much more will remain yet to be said, so full is the inspiration of the divine Word. May God make this Psalm to the reader all that it has been-yea, and more,-to the writer!
