* 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."

it available."

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.

Holy Ghost will take these CDs and light a fire unseen and unheard of. God
bless you all at Still Waters."

FABER, GEORGE S.
A Dissertation on the Prophecies, That Have Been Fulfilled,
Are Now Fulfilling, or Will Hereafter Be Fulfilled Relative to the Great Period
of 1260 Years; The Papal and Mohammedan Apostacies; The Tyrannical Reign of
Antichrist, or the Infidel Power; and the Restoration of the Jews
(2 volumes, 1811)
Defends classic historicist
postmillennialism and its position relative to the 1260 year period mentioned
in Scripture.
In the author's words,
(t)reats
of a subject peculiarly interesting to every serious Protestant: for the famous
period of 1260 prophetic days, so frequently mentioned by Daniel and St. John,
comprehends the tyrannical reign of those three great opponents of the Gospel:
Popery, Mohammedism, and Infidelity. This period indeed may not improperly be
styled the permitted hour of the powers of darkness; since the Church is represented as
being in an afflicted and depressed state during the whole of its continuance,
and since its expiration will be marked by a signal display of the judgments of
God upon his enemies and by the commencement of a new and happy order of
things.
Understanding the Reformation
position on eschatology, as it is set forth in this work, gives us great
insight as to why the Romanists (i.e. the Jesuits in particular) were so intent
on planting both Preterism (Alcasar, c. 1615) and Futurism (Ribera, c. 1585)
among the Protestants. 583 pages.

FAIRBAIRN, PATRICK
The Interpretation of Prophecy
This is Fairbairn's best-known work. Like all his writings it
is characterized by a deep familiarity with the text and language of Scripture,
careful and thoroughly-researched scholarship, and a sane and balanced approach
to exegesis. Here we have "the mature reflections of a
lifetime of devoted scholarly study of the subject of prophecy.
Part one deals with the principles of interpretation.
Part two applies these principles to matters related to the kingdom of Christ
(and its victory), Antichrist and the beast (and their doom), the millennium,
the mystery of iniquity, and much more.
If you
want to know, from a practical standpoint, why in our day so-called Protestants
are signing compromising agreements with Roman Catholics, why there is so much
disunity and defection in the church, why age old Confessional standards are
being abandoned, and why their is general turmoil all about, this book will
certainly help to give you the clear and sobering answer.

FAIRBAIRN, PATRICK
Jonah: His Life, Character, and Mission (1963 reprint)
According to Joseph C. Holbrook, Jr., "It would be hard to find an exposition of Scripture as
worthy of re-issue as Fairbairn's work on the prophet Jonah. Although
it is well over a century old it is as fresh and stimulating today as it was
then. When the commentary was nearly 50 years old, the greatest preacher of his
day, Charles H. Spurgeon, called it 'by far the
ablest English treatise on this prophet.' The present writer can
testify that his long search in used book stores in Great Britain and this
country was amply repaid when he laid his hands on this precious little volume.
As he had learned that there was no exposition of the prophet Ezekiel that could
compare with Fairbairn's, he quickly learned that no
serious preaching from the book of Jonah could be done without a reference to
the work of this faithful expositor of God's Word."
Holbrook adds that "the comments of this
long-departed worthy from the hills of Scotland will hold an honored place on
the shelves of many a preacher who proclaims God's truth to a modern day
generation."
Fairbairn himself writes in the preface that
"the consideration of the book of Jonah, besides the other advantages it
yields, furnishes some sure and well-defined
landmarks for guiding our way to a sound interpretation of the word of prophecy."
At the end of the book, Fairbairn draws some
lessons for Christians to learn from Jonah's life. For example, he points out
that God may have certain Christians serve Him in ways different from what
those Christians expected. "The field in which they are destined to reap
most fruit, may possibly not be the one which they are themselves disposed to
choose -- it may not even be that which has received the largest share in their
prayers and personal application. As generally 'the
times of men are before appointed by God, and the bounds of their habitations
are set,' so in particular his most faithful and honoured servants are often shut
up by him into peculiar, and by themselves entirely unsought channels of
usefulness" (p. 186). This kind of information helps the reader
to apply insights from Jonah to his own life.

pages), and Table of Contents (2 pages).

Pastoral Theology: A Treatise
On The Office And Duties Of The Christian Pastor
FAIRBAIRN, PATRICK
Prophecy Viewed in Respect to Its Distinctive Nature, Its
Special Function, and Proper Interpretation (1865)
A 532-page manual of interpretation focusing on prophecy. Full of applications, it makes for interesting
reading. Fairbairn elevates prophetic discussion by helping us to "look
into the very nature of God, to behold in his light the laws of eternity, according
to which he governs the church and the world," which is "something infinitely higher than a mere
knowledge of the future"
(Hengstenberg). The sections on the Papacy and
Antichrist are some of the best writing on this topic. This book
is light years ahead of the modern mush and drivel that is peddled by the
prophetic speculators of our day!

The Prophetical Future of the Church and Kingdom of Christ, in their
Relation to the Character, Working, and Fate of the Antichristian Apostasy
Excerpted from the book The Interpretation of Prophecy this book gives us a
fascinating look at what the bible has to say about the period in which we
live. It focuses on one of our great enemies, Antichrist, and exhibits the
manner in which he is portrayed in "Daniel both Typically and
Antitypically;" "as represented by our Lord and his Apostles;"
"as represented in the Apocalypse;" and in regard "to its
Overthrow and Final Doom." A fine short introduction to classic Protestant
Historicist Postmillennialism and a good way to whet your appetite for a larger
work like David Steele's Notes on the Apocalypse, which is one of the most
important books on eschatology to be published in quit some time.

The Revelation of Law in Scripture (1869, reprinted 1996)
Fairbairn expounds the biblical teaching dealing with the law of God in
creation, throughout the Mosaic administration, in the teaching of our Lord,
and in the life of the Christian believer. John Murray said of this book,
"The Revelation of Law in Scripture places the law of God in
its proper perspective. The careful perusal of this volume should correct the
misconceptions which have afflicted the thought of many, and should promote the
understanding of the sanctity of God's law without which the gospel of grace is
meaningless."
(Hardcover) $69.95-15%=$59.46 (US funds)
Typology of Scripture
This classic work thoroughly examines typology, not only as a biblical and
theological subject, but also in its connection with the development of all
Christian doctrine. It is Fairbairn's crowning achievement. Barber called it
"the best ever written on this subject." Brookman said that it was
"the most conclusive evangelical work on typology." Two volumes bound
into one, of over 900 pages.

The Nature, Possibility, and Duty, of a True Believer's Attaining to a

Perseverance to Glory (1675, reprinted 1845)
The biblical doctrine of assurance discussed, showing that the "Papal
doctrine of denying the possibility of assurance is false," and how it
"hath a dangerous tendency to destroy the true peace and comfort of souls
in the certain hopes of everlasting happiness."

Letters on Baptism
The author, a Baptist for many years, was commissioned by Baptists to prepare a
book in defense of Baptist views of baptism. During re-examination of the
subject for this publication, he adopted the Presbyterian position. This book
chronicles his journey and explains the Scriptural reasons for his change. A

FAIRLY, JOHN
An Humble Attempt in Defence of Reformation Principles;
Particularly on the Head of the Civil Magistrate (1770)
The title continues: "Wherein the gross
falsehoods, calumnies, and imposed sense, palmed by Mr. John Goodlet, upon the
Testimony emitted by the Reformed Presbytery, are exposed and confuted; and
said Testimony vindicated. As also, the seceding scheme of political principles
more fully detected;-- and discovered to be inconsistent with the law of
nature, light of divine revelation, and covenanted testimony of the Church of
Scotland."
Goold, in his The Reformed Presbyterian
Church in Scotland: Its Origin and History 1680-1876, writes of Fairly and this book,
He was very zealous
and outspoken in his maintenance of Church principles, and unsparing in his
condemnation and exposure of the shortcomings of other denominations. This
caused him to be both feared and disliked by many outside of his own communion;
yet by the ministers who were nearest his residence, and who came most
frequently in contact with him, he was greatly esteemed. He was fearless of
consequences in the discharging of his duties. On one occasion, when in
Ireland, his scathing exposure of Popery so irritated the Catholics, that three
of them resolved to disturb his next meeting by musical instruments (and
remember that no faithful Presbyterian used this "badge of Popery" --
musical instruments -- in their public meetings--RB). They came prepared to do
this, but were so overcome by the grave dignity of the man, and by the truth he
spoke, that they could do nothing but quietly listen. Two of them, it is said,
became earnest Protestants. On another occasion he denounced 'unpreaching
bishops,' and declared that his Lordship of Bangor was worse than Balaam's ass,
which spoke once at least, and rebuke the madness of the prophet. Some were so
highly offended that they resolved to waylay and stone the preacher. Mr. Fairly
was aware of this, but refused to change his route. As he approached the
ambuscade, a dispute arose as to his identity; some held that it was the object
of their hate, others said, 'No, never a bit of him; who ever saw a mountain
minister ride such a good horse?' and while they disputed he got beyond their
reach. One who knew him writes thus: 'I had some
knowledge of the elder Fairley; he fearlessly attacked the reigning follies of
his age, and preached the Gospel in a familiar but forcible style of eloquence.
In his great field days, and when contending for the Testimony of the Martyrs,
he was unsparing in the use of arrows, oft broke a lance with the Pope, and
drove rusty nails into our venerable Establishment, and lashed the Secession
and Relief for their declensions.' so pointed was his dealing with the sins of
the times, that many left his meetings when he came to the application of his
discourse... He took part in the controversy with the Seceders, and published a
pamphlet in reply to Goodlet, the Anti-burgher minister of Sanquhar, in which
he gives a scathing exposure of the weakness and inconsistency of his opponent,
and directs against him all his resources of humour and sarcasm, as well as the
weightier weapons of solid argument. But it was in proclaiming the riches of
the glorious Gospel to cast audiences under the open canopy of heaven, that the
power of Fairley was fully disclosed. He was
undoubtedly the preacher among the 'Four Johns.' He had a commanding presence,
a well-furnished mind, and a fluent and forcible utterance; and when he warmed
to his grand theme, his words moved the hearts of the crowds that had gathered
around him, and many owned him as their spiritual father (pp.
221-222).
