The General Epistles: Studies in the Letters of James, Peter, John and Jude

Samuel Glasgow writes with a stated purpose to be clear, practical, and memorable. The highly pastoral tone throughout his book points to scriptural authority and the call to obedience set upon the Christian. In his foreword, he lays out the necessity of the Holy Spirit for understanding and applying the texts that were written by men filled with the Holy Spirit. He then lays out his “Analytical Book Method” for the reader, then begins instructing on each of the Epistles: James, 1 Peter, 2 Peter, 1 John, 2 John, 3 John, and Jude. The bold writing style is a welcome challenge to faithful believers looking for clear teaching and an emphasis on practicality.
