Redemption Accomplished and Applied

“This is one of those genuinely life-changing books. I know from personal experience. Redemption Accomplished and Applied played a crucial role in my coming to understand the doctrines of grace. With his rigorously scriptural yet warmly accessible style, Professor Murray leads us to grand peaks where we catch a breathtaking view of God’s mercies in Christ.”

“A Scottish-born pastor and professor, Murray originally wrote this work of soteriology as a series of articles for ordinary church members. You would be hard pressed to find a more succinct and readable theological exploration of the work of Christ and the salvation of sinners.”

“Among his published works, invariably marked by his characteristic clarity and precision of expression, Redemption Accomplished and Applied has proven to be the most widely read. With good reason. For in it he addresses a broad audience in a most helpful and edifying manner regarding matters that, as the title indicates, are of paramount doctrinal concern, especially within the tradition of biblical and confessional Reformed orthodoxy in which he stands.”

“Amongst my five favorite of all books, Murray's Redemption Accomplished and Applied is one of them. ”

“It’s not a large book and it’s not a new book,, but it’s the wonderful fruit of a first-rate theologian.”

“Murray’s distinctive… is his careful exegesis of Scripture passages, so that his theological assertions come straight from the Word of God with all the authority which that gives them. His treatment of the order of application of redemption is masterly… one of the greatest theological books written in the last hundred years.”

“The author never wastes a word: there is no flab in his writing, which makes it brief and clear and crisp (a tonic for the mind) but also means that concentration and acuity are required for reading. Some will appreciate this, others will find it more difficult. For all willing and able to penetrate to the substance, this volume will prove a rich treat, a draught of pure, cold water when there is so much brackish fluid swilling around. Murray reaches the heart by way of the mind: here we see that the truth makes us free indeed, free not least to honour and adore the God of our so great salvation. This ought to be required reading for all who desire to know the how and why of God’s gracious dealings with sinners, and this newly reset edition will make it all the more accessible and attractive. If you already have it, consider investing afresh in this clear and readable edition. If you do not have it, you have no choice: go and get one.”

“More than any other book the one that transformed my life as a young Christian was John Murray's Redemption Accomplished and Applied. I happily recommend this book to all kinds of people...with this one proviso: that they want to grow up into Christ.”
