This is a reproduction of the original book from 1868. The cover is by Wisdom Books. THERE are books which never grow old: and this precious little volume, by Henry Scougal (1650-1678), is to be numbered among them. In it is an eternal freshness and beauty, its bloom actually brightening with advancing time. These words, for two centuries, have been bread of life to thousands. They have, through that long period, guided, comforted, and inspired; from that fact, they possess additional interest, for they have stood the severest test, and been found adequate to meet the deepest wants of human nature in its most trying needs. This "Life of God in the Soul of Man " has something of that divine life within itself which can impart of its own fulness to every soul ready to receive.

It has been said that this work by Henry Scougal was "almost universally praised by the leaders of the Great Awakening". It is a piece of literature that has been used by God to influence the souls of men for the glory of Christ. Regardless of the times we live in, the great works of the men of God of old are still applicable today. In an age of lukewarm believers, we need the fire of God to burn us afresh and give us a clear vision of His holy will. Be blessed as you read this book

Life of God in the Soul of Man was written by seventeenth century, Scottish minister Henry Scougal. It is a long letter, written to a friend who had lost the faith. Consequently, Life of God in the Soul of Man is supportive, and its tone is one of friendship and love, betraying a true passion in Scougal's work. - Tim Perrine, CCEL Staff Writer EXCERPT (Preface, The Life of God in the Soul of Man) THERE are books which never grow old: and this precious little volume, by HENRY SCOUGAL, is to be numbered among them. In it is an eternal freshness and beauty, its bloom actually brightening with advancing time. These words, for two centuries, have been bread of life to thousands. They have, through that long period, guided, comforted, and inspired; from that fact, they possess additional interest, for they have stood the severest test, and been found adequate to meet the deepest wants of human nature in its most trying needs. This "Life of God in the Soul of Man" has something of that divine life within itself which can impart of its own fulness to every soul ready to receive. The very breath of Jehovah may be felt through it. It kindles in the soul a sympathetic power, and lifts it into connection with higher realms. With its holy fervor there is blended a natural calmness. Health and healing are in its influence. Practical throughout, there is also a heavenly spirituality. Rising above all narrow limitations, the devout of every name may hold it in reverence, and cherish its counsels with gratitude and love. To the young, it will prove, armor of strength; to the aged, perpetual renovation; while Christians of all communions will find within it a foretaste of immortality. The life to which it would lead is a heaven upon earth, and that is but the commencement of a heaven without end. To all who hold in honor Christ and his gospel, to those who would love God and man, to each one who would so live in time as to make it the joyous gateway to a glorious eternity, this little volume should be heartily welcome; and we doubt not such welcome it will widely receive.

La vida de Dios en el alma del hombre fue escrito en el siglo XVII, por el ministro escoc s Henry Scougal. Es una larga carta, escrita a un amigo que hab a perdido la fe. En consecuencia, la vida de Dios en el alma del hombre es de apoyo, y su tono es de amistad y amor, denotando una verdadera pasi n en la obra de Scougal. Al ser una carta, La vida de Dios en el alma del hombre es algo corta. Se divide en tres partes. En la primera parte, Scougal ofrece una investigaci n enormemente instructiva de la verdadera naturaleza de la religi n. l se dirige a varias concepciones pobres a cerca de Dios y la religi n antes de pasar a la verdadera religi n-- "la vida de Dios en el Hijo del Hombre." En la segunda parte, explica los beneficios de la verdadera religi n. l se centra en la "excelencia del amor divino." El amor de Dios, enfatiza, es un gran amor, que vale la pena tener Sin embargo, en la tercera parte, Scougal reconoce las dificultades para seguir a Dios. Por lo tanto, el fomenta la dependencia de la ayuda divina, y la contemplaci n de la escritura en el desarrollo de una vida santa. Aunque la escritura es un poco anticuada, la vida de Dios en el alma del hombre es un viaje a trav s de la sabidur a espiritual, que ha servido a innumerables caminantes espirituales.

The Works of the Rev. H. Scougal is a collection of ten discourses written by Henry Scougal, a Scottish theologian and philosopher, in the 17th century. The book includes Scougal's most famous work, The Life of God in the Soul of Man, which explores the nature of true religion and the relationship between God and humanity. The other nine discourses cover a range of topics, including the importance of prayer, the role of the Holy Spirit in the Christian life, and the need for humility and self-examination. Scougal's writing is characterized by its depth, clarity, and spiritual insight, and his works have been influential for centuries in the Christian tradition. This edition of The Works of the Rev. H. Scougal is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of Christian theology and spirituality. This Is A New Release Of The Original 1833 Edition.

Henry Scougal died in 1657 at the age of 27 but by then he was already Professor of Divinity at Aberdeen University. This timeless classic was originally written to encourage a friend and stimulate his spiritual life. It was so appreciated that it was later published as a book for a wider readership. A hundred years later a copy was sent to George Whitefield by his friend, Charles Wesley – it was instrumental in Whitefield’s conversion. This book provided much of the stimulation behind the Methodist Revival of Britain and the Great Awakening in America. In it Scougal explains the four essential characteristics of divine life, their excellence, their advantages and the practical steps that you can take in realising them as your personal experience.
