The Sinfulness and Cure of Thoughts

"This sermon by Puritan Stephen Charnock pushes past the surface understanding of sin and temptation by diving into the very thoughts and mindsets that reveal a corrupt heart and a soul distanced from God. He writes that through discipline, repentance, and God’s grace, one can push back against evil thoughts, sinful notions, and corruption. Turning continually to God with reverence and dedication, accepting His love and transforming power, is the way to resist these sinful thoughts."

The Immutability of God

"Theologian Stephen Charnock Explains the Unchangeableness of God's Essence, Nature, and Perfections Does God's purpose change when he answers a prayer? Does his will shift when he grants repentance to sinners? Was the essence of God's son altered when he came to earth as a man? The unchangeability of God is central to the gospel, but this doctrine is frequently misunderstood by believers and debated by atheists.   In this classic essay, which has been edited and updated for a modern audience, theologian Stephen Charnock explains the doctrine of immutability. Comparing God's unchangeability to the inconstancy of all creatures, Charnock helps listeners see the foolishness of relying on a perishing world rather than an eternal and perfect God. This concise, Scripture-based essay is essential for students, pastors, and laypeople. - Written by Theologian Stephen Charnock: Abridged and lightly edited, this essay focuses on biblical and theological evidence that God is eternally unchangeable - Part of the Crossway Short Classics Series: Other titles include What Did the Cross Achieve?; The Life of God in the Soul of Man; and Fighting for Holiness  - Includes a Foreword by Mark Jones"

Divine Providence: A Classic Work for Modern Readers

"Rigorous, practical, and deeply reverent, Divine Providence speaks to the struggles of believers today as it tackles difficult questions with biblical truth. Does God govern the world—and how? Is he the author of sin? Why do good people suffer while bad people thrive? What does God's providence mean for how we should live our lives? In a masterful discourse, Puritan theologian Stephen Charnock arms us to trust in the One who works all things for his glory and the good of the church. This new edition, rendered in modern English, introduces contemporary Christians to one of the greatest Puritan thinkers and the beauty of divine providence—the comforting truth that 'God is righteous, wise, and good, and nothing takes place that is not in his will.' Includes study questions for discussion."

[Spanish] - Obediencia

"En nuestros días, la religión americana moderna tiene una visión tan endeble, mundana y pervertida de la gracia, que no es de extrañar que muchos creyentes profesantes piensen que están escuchando el tintineo insoportable de las cadenas legalistas cuando algún predicador es lo suficientemente ingenuo -o tal vez incluso tiene el amor de Cristo por sus almas- para decirles que la Palabra de Dios les ordena obedecer al Señor Jesucristo. La verdad del asunto es que Jesús mismo dice que obedecerlo es nuestra expresión de amor por Él; de hecho, continúa diciendo que no lo amamos si no lo obedecemos. Esto es una verdad aleccionadora, pero bíblica. Su preciosa sangre, derramada en la cruz del Calvario, no sólo nos limpia, sino que también santifica. Que nuestros corazones derramen nuestro amor a Cristo mediante una obediencia ferviente, humilde y gozosa a Él. Obedecer es una palabra de cuatro letras que los creyentes comprados con sangre deben amar. 'Hay dos cosas que son indispensables para la vida del cristiano: un conocimiento claro del deber y una práctica consciente del mismo correspondiente a su conocimiento. Así como no podemos tener una esperanza bien fundada de la salvación eterna sin la obediencia, tampoco podemos tener una regla segura de la obediencia sin el conocimiento. Aunque puede haber conocimiento sin práctica, no es posible que haya práctica de la voluntad de Dios sin conocimiento. Y, por lo tanto, para que seamos informados de lo que debemos hacer y lo que debemos evitar, al Gobernante y Juez de toda la tierra le ha agradado prescribirnos leyes para regular nuestras acciones. Cuando habíamos desfigurado miserablemente la Ley de la naturaleza originalmente escrita en nuestro corazón de modo que muchos de sus mandamientos ya no eran legibles, le pareció bien al Señor transcribir esa Ley en las Escrituras, y en los Diez Mandamientos tenemos un resumen de los mismos.'"
