Infos

'Throughout this work great prominence is given to the moral and spiritual defects of the twelve. But we must protest at the outset against the inference that such men must remain permanently disqualified for the task of being the apostles of the universal religion, the religion of humanity. Everything may be hoped of men who could leave all for Christ's society. Where there is a noble soul, there is an indefinite capacity of growth.' - Alexander Balmain Bruce
There is great encouragement in this work for those seeking to enter the ministry or for those seeking to train up the next generation of godly leaders. No one is to be excluded who exhibits the fruits of the holy spirit and an earnest faith in the earthly work of Christ to redeem sinners to a holy God.
A. B. Bruce take us deep into the New Testament text and reveals to us the types of men Jesus chose to help build his Kingdom. Jesus is not looking for perfect men, only willing ones. Not for talented or rich or powerful men, but for humble ones. Teachable ones. Not for perfect men, but for broken men. Men He can mold into his Own image for His Own glory, so that all the world might be saved.
This masterly study, by one of the most prominent theologians of the 19th century, will encourage you in your faith and walk with God and show you how He molds human characters into vessels fit for the Kingdom.
