Master’s Indwelling by Andrew Murray is a new addition to the Christian Classics Ethereal Library. Andrew Murray (1828-1917) was a minister from South Africa who was heavily involved in the South African Revival of 1860. He was a prolific writer, and produced over 240 books in his life.
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. The essence of the book is whether Christ is living in you. Of whether the Spirit drives your thoughts and actions. CLICK HERE TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE
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.”

My church in East London has just started a Christian book exchange to complement the book stall. You may have seen similar things in some cafes. Basically if you have any Christian books you don’t think you’ll need any more, you just bring them along and dump them in the box. Anyone can then have a rummage around and take any book they like the look.
Of course, this is a fat lot of good to most of you, as you don’t go to the same church as me. However I think its a great idea and worth implementing in all churches. It is a great way to ensure powerful books are not left festering on our shelves where they will never be read again. So what are waiting for, do it in your church now!
