The Existence and Attributes of God edition by Stephen Charnock William Symington Religion Spirituality eBooks
I don't know what to say, I'm still reading. It is very comprehensive, not something to just read through. It will take some thinking as you along. It is a very high view of God and comes from a reformed understanding of the scripture. It is helping me understand the nature of God in a much deeper way. It is a very large work, but very much worth the read.Product details

The Existence and Attributes of God edition by Stephen Charnock William Symington Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
I have not completed my reading of this book. What I have read so far has challenged my thinking and dropped me to my knees in prayer. Stephen Charnock gives an excellent treatment and response to "practical atheism." I cannot wait to continue read and ponder the rest of the book. It's provocative reading. So far, I would list this book as recommended reading for any serious Christian!
Stephen Charnock, a 17th century Puritan theologian, pulls together all of Holy Scripture that addresses each of the attributes of God (sovereignty, power, wisdom, omniscence, eternity, holiness, goodness, dominion, patience). In logical and deductive fashion he expounds on the Scripture to reveal how His attributes are manifested and what man's response should be. The response of man to all of God's attributes should be worship and praise. Charnock exposes the true nature and heart of man and his place in God's creation (as a creature) as set apart from the animals (brutes) for the express purpose of recognizing God in His creation and our need and obligation to worship and praise Him. He exposes in honest and forthright fashion man's great responsibility for sin, his lack of reverence to God, his half-hearted worship, his desire to be like a God, his depravity. However, the longest discourse in this two volume set is on the Goodness of God, one of His attributes that man in his fallen state conveniently forgets at times. How good is God to give us a redemption that allows us to have a restored innocence through an immutable source, His Son Jesus Christ; a state that Adam (and man) had he remained innnocent would never have. There would always be a distance between Adam and God. Through Christ we have access to our Sovereign God and Creator. These discourses magnify your understanding of God in Scripture, puts man in his place in regards to His Creator, and has drawn me to a more true and closer relationship to the Trinity. This is a most profound work and has quite literally blown me away. Stephen Charnock would be an additional guest at my table along with the apostle Paul if I had the chance to have dinner with any two people who ever walked on this earth. Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord from the heavens; Praise Him in the heights!
With the Scriptures being the authoritative text over everything, I will, without hesitation, say that this is THE authoritative text written by a man on the subjecsts of the existence and attributes of God. You will not find another book on the same level as this one anywhere.
If you do not mind reading 17th century English, and you have not read this, you are missing out on a monumental work.
This book written so long ago remains a Christian Classic. Charnock brilliantly expounds the attributes of God and should be a must read for any serious student of the Word of God. It took a while for me to plow through this book but was well worth my time and I graciously recommend it for your reading pleasure.
Criticism of the accuracy of this version are greatly exaggerated. Yes, there are some typos, but they are neither excessive nor all that distracting. I love e-books because it is easy to take notes from them. When you consider what the person providing this book had to do in checking a 1,000+ pages for errors and, then, selling it for a mere pittance, the presence of scattered errors, that are not difficult to discern and ignore, are nothing to hinder anyone from buying it. I heartily thank the publisher for making my work with Charnock a whole lot easier.
I once heard a very godly man discussing the five books, other than the Bible, that had impacted him the most. At the top of his list was Stephen Charnock's The Existence and Attributes of God. Here's an excerpt of what he said "...I think the first book—and I say this because it had such a profound impact on me—would be Steven Charnock’s The Existence and Attributes of God. I didn’t grow up in a Reformed environment. When I discovered Reformed theology, it was in Charnock. I didn’t know it was possible to have that many thoughts about God...It is inexhaustible." Soli Deo Gloria!
This is a masterpiece! In this work we can delve into some of the attributes of God. Charnock is not a man of few words, and that is a positive fact in this book. Our great God cannot be understood nor described by a few words. He goes deep in the study of God and it is a blessing to learn even more about God's character through his work. Every Christian should read this book. I used it on a Sunday School Class along other material such as "Our Awesome God" by John Macarthur and "The Attributes of God" by Steve Lawson (Teaching Series from Ligonier Ministries).
I don't know what to say, I'm still reading. It is very comprehensive, not something to just read through. It will take some thinking as you along. It is a very high view of God and comes from a reformed understanding of the scripture. It is helping me understand the nature of God in a much deeper way. It is a very large work, but very much worth the read.
