I have been requested to write some papers on our Lord's miracles. I venture the attempt in the belief that, seeing they are one of the modes in which his unseen life found expression, we are bound through them to arrive at some knowledge of that life. For he has come, The Word of God, that we may know God: every word of his then, as needful to the knowing of himself, is needful to the knowing of God, and we must understand, as far as we may, every one of his words and every one of his actions, which, with him, were only another form of word. I believe this the immediate end of our creation. And I believe that this will at length result in the unravelling for us of what must now, more or less, appear to every man the knotted and twisted coil of the universe.

About the Author George MacDonald (10 December 1824 – 18 September 1905) was a Scottish writer, poet and Christian minister, best known for his poignant fairy tales and fantasy fictions. He was an internationally renowned speaker and author of faerie stories for adults and children who counted Mark Twain, Lewis Caroll, Ralph Waldo Emerson and John Greenleaf Whittier among his friends and admirers. Among his writings are Phantastes, At the Back of the North Wind, Sir Gibbie, The Princess and the Goblin, Lilith, and The Light Princess. He has been a major influence on writers of the 20th century, including G. K. Chesterton, W. H. Auden, Madeleine L'Engle and more. He directly influenced C. S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia, and J. R. R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, and The Hobbit. In MacDonald's sermons and writings God never shouts. Rather, His is the urgent and insistent voice Elijah heard on the mount, not speaking from the great and strong wind, the earthquake or the fire. It is a still small voice that compels you to lean closer to learn the secret. But be warned! Only consider reading this book if you more deeply, more inexpressibly want to understand Holiness, because MacDonald will comfort you as he pulls the rug of pretensions out from under you. As he said, "Man finds it hard to get what he wants because he does not want the best; God finds it hard to give, because he would give the best, and man will not take it." For readers familiar with MacDonald's fantasies, this is an opportunity to see the depths of his Christian thought as he lovingly explores the issues of salvation, the remission of sins, the Word made flesh, man's relationship to God and his fellow-men, the reward and the burden of obedience, pets and animals in the resurrection, and more. This would make a wonderful gift for a Pastor, Bible reader, Theology student, Seminarian, or anyone interested in the Christian walk and Holiness. It would also be an ideal gift for Christian home-schooled students.

7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. allow your comprehensive abilities to be stretched by spending time pouring over his brilliantly stated observations and you wil By Kim Jackson The 100 old-language of George MacDonald is challenging to the quick-read mind of our century. But be patient; allow your comprehensive abilities to be stretched by spending time pouring over his brilliantly stated observations and you will be blessed by this long gone preacher-author as he expounds the miracles of our Savior and their eternal significance. It is well worth the extra time you will invest in not only getting to know Jesus better, but becoming a friend of one of his most expressive servants. Not simply a good read, but a heart changer.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Lewis tidied up quite nicely decades later By Hueg Ess Sound Scottish thinking with a ponderous Victorian vocabulary (which C.S. Lewis tidied up quite nicely decades later.) Good and thoughtful read!
