J. Sidlow Baxter Library

Our High Calling, written by world-renowned author and pastor J. Sidlow Baxter, is a devotional that covers the practical studies of New Testament doctrine in personal sanctification.

Does God Still Guide? Or, more fully, what are the Essentials of Guidance and Growth in the Christian Life?

Divine Healing of the Body covers the history of healing through the centuries as well as how divine healing is present today through the Atonement, and how we experience divine healing today.

After more than 25 years in the ministry, and at the prompting of many ministers, Dr. J. Sidlow Baxter evaluates the evangelical church of America. Focusing on its orientation to the Bible, to Pentecost and to public worship, Dr. Baxter has a heart-to-heart talk with the church: its pastor and people. Rethinking Our Priorities flows from an anguish of concern over the plight of Protestant Christendom.

Within the compass of this substantial volume, a major study work, Dr. J. Sidlow Baxter points out the marvel of the structural design of the Scriptures. First examining the "architecture" of the Bible, he suggests the basic approach to, and expectation of what is to be gained by the study of Scriptures. He then makes clear how a certain fitness for delineating the spiritual truths of the Bible may be acquired - and so he leads the reader to understand the structure of the Bible as a whole. In the second part of his book, Dr. Baxter points to the two dispensations defined in John 1:17 and offers stimulating comparisons between the Old and New Testaments. Further chapters lead toward a clear understanding of the Kingdom of Heaven, the Church, and the entire New Testament. Included in the text are useful outlines and tables to summarize key factors, figures, pronouncements and turning points which have pivotal or crucial significance in the total message of the Bible.

Awake, to worship with the morn, And consecrate thy day new-born Again at eve in prayer be found As shadows curtain earth around. The purpose of Awake My Heart is to aid in constant and practical communication with God and to present Christians with solid, thought-provoking devotional material.

Dr. Baxter investigates, analyzes and interprets some of the more obscure passages of Scripture, shedding clear light upon much that heretofore has been bewildering. He himself has often expressed his indebtedness to the problem texts of the Bible because of the many hours of valuable searching and study that they have provoked in his life, and for the manner in which their study has disciplined himself and others in patience and painstaking investigation.

This expository treatment of the best known verse in the Bible, John 3:16, opens new vistas of meaning to Christian believers. Each message in this book points out and illustrates some pertinent aspect of the way of salvation.

In His Deeper Work in Us, the importance of seeking the control and the infilling of the Holy Spirit is viewed as the key to living the victorious Christian life. Accordingly, Dr. Baxter states that "the New Testament emphasis is not so much on our being ridded of something (though that is necessarily included), but rather on being filled with a spiritual vitality and health that leaves the sin-disease no environment in which to thrive." Drawing upon the writings of such stalwarts of the faith as D. L. Moody, Hannah Whitall Smith, Frances Ridley Havergal, A. T. Pierson, Samuel Chadwick, and others, Dr. Baxter discusses this all-important step in the Christian walk through both experience and Scripture.
