Christ Dying and Drawing Sinners to Himself

by Samuel Rutherford

A rich exposition of John 12:27–33, exploring Christ’s soul-suffering in the garden, the glory of his sacrificial death, and the powerful efficacy of his cross in drawing sinners to himself. Rutherford weaves pastoral comfort for troubled believers with vigorous defenses of free grace against Antinomian and Arminian errors, unfolding the mysteries of election, effectual calling, and the irresistible beauty of the Saviour’s love.

Christ Dying and Drawing Sinners to Himself.

Or a survey of our Savior in his soul-suffering, his loveliness in his death, and the efficacy thereof.

In which some cases of soul-trouble in weak believers, grounds of submission under the absence of Christ, with the flowings and heightenings of free grace, are opened.

Delivered in Sermons on the Gospel according to Saint John, Chapter 12, Verses 27–33.

Where also are interjected some necessary digressions, for the times, touching various errors of Antinomians, and a short vindication of the doctrine of Protestants, from the Arminian claimed universality of Christ's dying for all, and every one of mankind; the moral and feigned way of resistible conversion of sinners, and what faith is required of all within the visible Church, for the lack of which many are condemned.

By Samuel Rutherford, Minister of the Gospel, and Professor of Divinity in the University of Saint Andrews in Scotland.

(Proverbs 30:4) What is his name, and what is his Son's name if you can tell? (Isaiah 53:8) He was taken from prison, and from judgment, and who shall declare his generation?

London, Printed by J. D. for Andrew Crooke at the Green Dragon in Paul's Church-yard, 1647.
