Romans eight is a favourite of many Christians for it contains verse after verse of pure spiritual gold. It opens up to us peace with God, the ministries of the Spirit, the urgency of personal reformation, the glory of our eternal inheritance, the power of God's goodness at work in our daily lives and the invincibility of his loving intentions toward us. In this thoughtful and perceptive book, Ray Ortlund delves deeply into Romans 8. Our appreciation and understanding of the chapter will be thoroughly revitalised.

"Dr. Ortlund mines the depths of this chapter, but what he produces is a book of such practical and spiritual riches as we seldom read today."

On the front cover, Eric Alexander tells us that this is a good book. On the back cover, he is joined by five other authorities, who tell us the same. And they are all correct - the book is to be whole-heartedly recommended.
