THE CHRISTIAN
By William S. Plumer, 1878
"The Christian is a delightful and encouraging work, describing
twenty-seven facets of the Christian experience. Altogether, it is an
excellent, succinct presentation on what it means to be a Christian. This
treatise could serve the believer well as a daily devotional as well as an
evangelistic tool to explain the experiential life of a Christian to the
inquiring unbeliever." Joel Beeke.
