Here is treasure - it is the treasure of God's wonderful Word, which is fresh and relevant to each new generation.

The church is Christ's precious possession for which he expended himself: he died for her, he rose for her and he lives for his bride for ever.

In this heart-warming book you will discover the glory of

- Christ's atoning work;
- his invincible love for his people;
- his enduring care, which will ensure the safe arrival of every true believer in heaven.

Originally published in French in 1851, this modern rendering retains the pastoral warmth of its author, Cesar Malan, and presents truth winsomely and with clarity.

Cesar Malan (1787-1864): long-time pastor of l'Eglise du Temoignage in Geneva. He was a prolific author, a renowned theologian and an indefatigable evangelist, whose labours led him across much of the European continent. He was also the composer of a large number of hymns, some of which are still used in worship today.
