* It is SWRB's
opinion that Ages has done an excellent job in making various Reformed works
available on CD, so much so that we also distribute a number of their CDs at
discounts. Thus, please don't make more out of our publishing this comment than
is warranted, as this is a comment we received from one of our customers and it
expresses his opinion. As for Ages' work, we rejoice whenever the truth is
published, whether through others or through SWRB (as we play only a very small
part in the revival of classic Reformation, Puritan and Covenanter thought that
is now taking place worldwide through God's marvelous grace). The publication
of the best Reformers and Puritans of the past is one of the greatest needs of
our time, as this extends the blessings that come through faithful preachers
and authors into our day and into the future. Lord willing, the growth in the
publishing of faithful works from the past will help stem the tide of the great
declension and unfaithfulness which we are now witnessing all around us, even
(sadly) among many churches that still call themselves "Presbyterian"
and/or "Reformed." So please pray together with us that our Lord will
multiple the number of faithful publishers and publications, and that He will
give many the heart to stand for the truth no matter the consequences (as He
has done for our faithful forefathers, who resisted Satan and sin unto blood
and even to martyrdom in many cases). -- RB.
"SWRB's
Puritan and Reformation CD libraries are an invaluable source for the study of
the history and theology of classic Reformation theology. The collection is
remarkable not only for depth of content, but also for the rarity of many of
the works. Most seminary libraries will not have even a percentage of the works
available on these CD-ROMs. I cannot imagine anyone working in Reformation /
historical theology that would not want to use the Puritan and Reformed libraries!"

"I
just received your CD collection. One bit of advice: you should instruct your
customers to take about 1 week off just to peruse the tables of contents for
these CD's, followed by another week off, in order to recover from the
state of shock in which they will find themselves.
In
all seriousness, this collection is almost impossible to describe. It has to be
seen to be believed. As a pastor, my library has just increased
dramatically.
As a Ph.D. student in Puritan and Post-Reformation studies, I have immediate
access to many of the same works for which I would normally need to access
through rare book rooms of theological libraries.
Thank
you for this labor of love. Thank you for making it accessible, both
financially and technologically. May the Lord richly bless you for this service
to his people."

"You
all are doing a wonderful service by making all these materials so readily
available. Having them on my hard drive is BETTER than having access to a
rare book library with all of them in hand... I have found the CD set
invaluable as a tool of scholarship. So once again I commend you brothers for making
it available."

"It's
been several weeks now since I received the CDs and have had some time to
digest some of them. All I can say is, "WOW!" This is truly a
library like no other, and has already paid great dividends not only in my own
personal worship and study, but in my teaching as well. I first balked at the
price, but after seeing the vastness of the material, I almost feel as though
I'm robbing you!
I
pray that the Lord will allow you to get these materials into the hands of as
many ministers as possible."

Full
SWRB CD comment from Dr. Moore:
This
collection of 62 CDs is a truly astounding accomplishment. There is nothing
like this available to the ordinary Christian on the whole face of the earth.
Now,
for the first time ever, ordinary Christians can have direct and near
effortless access to the very cream of Puritan and Reformed, as well as
Covenanter, literature.
These
books are often in fascinating first editions and many are electronically
linked and indexed for the first time. The ordinary Christian may here dig
into a simply staggering wealth of literature, from devotional and sermonic
material to technical and scholarly works. Even in the days of the Long Reformation
itself ordinary Christians didn't get to see this kind of library -- most
couldn't read for a start, and even those who could, would never have been able
to afford to buy even a hundredth part of the material on these CDs. Truly we
are without excuse!
And
the significance of this collection goes even beyond that. No longer do we have
to wait for modern Reformed publishing houses to predict that a particular
Reformation or Puritan book will be sufficiently popular to make it economical
to reprint, or to deem it "safe" enough to be let loose on the modern
evangelical church. Rather, we are now able to see for ourselves the whole
range of the Puritan and Reformed publishing enterprise, including views that
are usually suppressed by most modern devotees of "Puritan" piety!
Buy
these CDs while you can, and find out for yourself what the First and Second
Reformations were really all about! You'll be truly amazed, and, by God's
grace, will grow from being an ordinary Christian to being an extraordinary
one. What they used to say of the Puritan John Flavel's preaching, can be
said of these CDs: they are "hissing hot"!

"This
side of eternity I'll never be able to repay the favor you have done mankind by
bringing these... CDs together.
The
first week of reading I grew more as a Christian reading those rich, pure
Gospel Commentators than I have in 18 years of Christian life. After reading some of
the Puritan CDs I have to get the Reformation set if it kills me. A fire is
burning within me. These... CDs are liable to start a revival fire unseen in
any generation... the Gospel in its pure form is seen in these... CDs.
Sir,
I cant say enough. What a treasure! I'll never be able to repay you this side
of heaven, but when we get there I am sure you will see the rich fruits of your
labor. God bless you for not being money hungry but wanting to see Christians
grow in the Lord... I love you even though we have never met, you have
helped me in my Christian walk tremendously with these... CDs.
I
am not bragging on the flesh, I am just giving honor where honor is due. The
Holy Ghost will take these CDs and light a fire unseen and unheard of. God
bless you all at Still Waters."

this CD work is.
God
be praised that he uses sickly and weak men to forward his kingdom, that the
work may not be mistaken to be wrought by the might of men, but by his Spirit.
His strength is perfected in weakness."

"Here indeed is pure and real
religion: faith so joined with an earnest fear of God that this fear also
embraces willing reverence, and carries with it such legitimate worship as
is prescribed in the law (also known as the regulative principle of worship--RB). And we
ought to note this fact even more diligently: all men have a vague general
veneration for God, but very few really reverence Him; and wherever
there is great ostentation in ceremonies, sincerity of heart is rare indeed."

Resource 1. CALVIN,
JOHN
Institutes of the Christian
Religion (2 volumes)
It would not be an exaggeration to
say that this set of books would be among the ten most influential writings in
the history of the world. It is hard for us to imagine how far Calvin had come in his
time, and, if you know the thought of his day, how much he has influenced our
world. "Perhaps no other theological work has
so consistently retained for four centuries a place on the reading list of
studious Christians... Wherever in the crises of history social foundations are
shaken and men's hearts quail, the pages of this classic are searched with
fresh respect," notes the introduction.
This edition includes (for the first time in
any language) comprehensive Scripture, Author, and Subject indexes that run to
nearly 200 pages.
This is the definitive edition of Calvin's Institutes edited by John McNeill.
It shows, more clearly than any other work of Calvin, why John Knox called Geneva "the most perfect school
of Christ that was ever on earth since the days of the apostles."

Resource 2. EIRE,
CARLOS M.N.
War Against the Idols: The
Reformation of Worship from Erasmus to Calvin
Eire shows that as
the Reformation progressed the primary focus of the Reformers became upholding
God's sovereign prerogative in worship -- what today is called the regulative
principle of worship. Eire's War
Against the Idols
demonstrates the extent of the Reformers clear
condemnation of Arminianism in worship (i.e. will-worship [Col. 2:23]) in
rejecting all elements of worship that did not have Scriptural warrant.
In fact, Calvin was so intent on highlighting this point, concerning the
centrality of worship (and the application of Sola
Scriptura as exhibited in the
regulative principle of worship), that he placed worship ahead of
salvation in his list of the two most important elements of Biblical
Christianity. Regarding Calvin's On the Necessity of Reforming the Church Eire notes,
Calvin speaks about the nature of worship and
about the seriousness of the sin of idolatry in his 1543 treatise, On the
Necessity of Reforming the Church, where he concentrates on the significance of
worship for the Christian religion. Calvin's argument, as indicated by the
title of the treatise, is that the Church had reached such a corrupt state that
its reform could wait no longer. The most significant aspect of corruption
singled out by Calvin is the perversion of worship, and it is in explaining
this issue that he set forth the basis for his attack on idolatry.
Calvin begins by studying the place
that worship holds in the Christian faith, and he concludes that it is one of
the two elements that define Christianity:
If it be asked, then, by what things chiefly the
Christian religion has a standing amongst us, and maintains its truth, it will
be found that the following two not only occupy the principal place, but
comprehend under them all the other parts, and consequently the whole substance
of Christianity, viz., a knowledge first, of the
right way to worship God; and secondly of the source from which salvation is to
be sought. When these are kept out of view, though we may glory in the name of
Christians, our profession is empty and vain. (War Against the
Idols,
p. 198, citing from Calvin's On the Necessity of Reforming the Church [FREE at: http://www.swrb.com/newslett/actualnls/NRC_ch00.htm ] , emphases added).
The scholarly
translational work found in Eire's book also gives insights into the worship question not found in any other
English history books (concerning Calvin, Knox, and a host of others) --
for it contains much from previously untranslated (into English, that is)
Reformation documents.
A large portion of this book centers on Calvin,
but its major thrust is to reveal the single most
burning issue confronting the Reformers: purity
of worship! Furthermore, this book's teaching regarding the
Reformers (and their view of the Scriptural law of worship) is as applicable
today as it was in the days of the first Reformation -- for
it brings to light the time-tested Biblical principles which guard against the
errors, excesses, and idolatries of the Roman harlot (Roman Catholicism),
Eastern Orthodoxy and all liturgical innovators (e.g. James Jordan) on one hand
and the modern "evangelicals" (including the sub-Reformed movement
headed up by the likes of Steve
Schlissel, John Frame, Doug Wilson et al.),
Anabaptists and Charismatics on the other. This is, without a
doubt, one of the best Reformation history books available -- stirring,
scholarly, relevant and edifying!
As far as we know this book may be out of print
in the near future, so those interested would be advised to obtain a copy as
soon as possible.
