Tithing by A.W. Pink (1886-1952) is a new addition to the Christian Classics Ethereal Library. Pink was born and lived much of his life in England although he also pastored churches in Australia, America and Scotland. Prior to his conversion in his 20s Pink was involved in a gnostic occult. In his own life Pink was never particularly well known, but Iain Murray says of Pink, “the widespread circulation of his writings after his death made him one of the most influential evangelical authors in the second half of the twentieth century.” Not surprisingly this book deals with the topic of tithing and its place in the modern church.
You may also want to visit Pink’s archives. This site is dedicated to Pink’s work, and has very long list of books available free from A.W. Pink.

main website
Streams in the Desert is a great classic devotion by L.B. Cowman initially published in 1925. Mrs L.B. Cowman was a missionary in China and Japan between 1901 and 1917. Streams in the desert was inspired both by this time, and as she looked after her dying husband for six years.

Master’s Indwelling was initially a series of sermons that were then rewritten into book form. You can get in pdf, word, plain text or simply view it online at Christian Classics Ethereal Library.

Classic books

Last week Fred Sanders from the Scriptorium blog list the top twelve theology books from the history of Christianity. Obviously this is a subjective list, but there is no doubting it is a list of twelve awesome books.
When I saw the list I instantly thought a lot would be available free on Christian Classics Ethereal Library, as they were primarily classic literature. Then, just as I was about to write this post Fred sent an update confirming that eleven of the twelve books are available free!. Ten of these are from Christian Classics Ethereal Library, and one (Cyril of Alexandria) from The Tertullian Project. In fact the other one, the first on the list below is books from the bible so I trust you will all be okay getting a copy of that!
Basically what this means is that when you login and view a book on line you can make notes on any part of the text, and also highlight the text different colours. This should be a real help to those you read books online and use it a study resource, and it is really easy to use.
CCEL give the following guidance on making an annotation:
“To make an annotation, go to a book page and highlight some text with your mouse. Then click one of the highlighter icons on the toolbar at the bottom left of the screen. There are three different highlighter colors, a button to add a note, and a button to remove any highlights in the selected region. After clicking one of the buttons your highlight should immediately appear on the page, or if you are creating a note, a text box should appear for you to type a note.”
this book has stood the test of time because it deals with issues that are always relevant
I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that Tim Challies was launching a kind of online reading club.
If that interested you then get the book now as the reading has begun!
The good news is that you can get J.C. Ryle’s Holiness book free from Christian Classics Ethereal Library.

If you are looking for a book to read at the moment then look no further than this classic.
Tim Challie’s has come up with the idea on his blog of reading through great Christian books at a comfortable pace, and then having a discussion about it on his blog. The first contender up for this global book club is J.C. Ryle’s Holiness.
The reason I am promoting this is of course because you can get ‘Holiness’ free from Christian Classics Ethereal Library. Christian Classics Ethereal Library is one of the sites that I highly rate on this site due to its high quality content. Alternatively, Tim has a few links on his site where you can buy it if you would prefer.
The recommendation comes from J.I. Packer who says “Real Christians will find it a gold mine, a feast, a spur and a heart warmer, food, drink, medicine and a course of vitamins, all in one. Reading it will, I trust, confirm to you the estimate of Ryle … as a great man and—more important!—fill your heart with the realism, wisdom, energy, lowliness, and joy of Christ. So may Ryle truly come into his own in all our lives.”
‘ …’HIS COMPASSIONS NEVER FAIL…THEY ARE NEW EVERY MORNING;” LAMENTATIONS 3:22 -23
If you think you are solely responsible for your success, think again.
David was a man who loved God very much, yet lust overcame him causing him to commit adultery; then have the woman’s husband killed. The reason David talked about God’s mercy is because he needed so much of it! Only a person who is gut-level honest in their evaluation of themselves can say, ‘O GIVE thanks to the Lord, for He is good; for His mercy and loving-kindness endure forever’ (Psalm 107:1 AMP).

‘EACH TREE IS RECOGNIZED BY ITS OWN FRUIT…” LUKE 6:44
The Titanic received five iceberg warnings just before it went down. When the sixth message came during the wee hours of the morning: ‘Look out for icebergs,’ the operator wired back ‘Shut-up! I’m busy!’ Thirty minutes later the great vessel; whose captain said, ‘Even God couldn’t sink this ship;’ was sinking fast. What happened? They forgot the truth about icebergs. What they saw above the water couldn’t have sunk the great ship. But unfortunately most of an iceberg is below the water. Do you know what? That iceberg represents your life! The 10% above the water is your reputation, the 90% below is your character. And it’s what’s below the surface that sinks your ship.
What is character?
a) self-discipline – the ability to do what’s right, even when you don’t feel like it
