The God of All Comfort
by By Smith, Hannah Whitall
Category: Religion , Christian Life , General

An agnostic, on discussing the subject of religion with the author, told  her: "If you Christians want to make us agnostics inclined to look into your  religion, you must be more comfortable in the possession of it yourselves. The Christians  I meet seem to me to be the most uncomfortable people anywhere around. I, for one,  do not care to have that sort of religion." As a result, The God of All  Comfort was written. Far from the abundant life promised by Christ, most Christians  live in defeat and despair. The object of this book is to reveal the secret  of this abundant life and victory over defeat, to bring genuine and enduring joy  into the lives of troubled Christians, to show that everything Christ promised is  available today to all believers, and to put within reach of every Christian  that deep and lasting peace and comfort in the soul that nothing earthly can disturb.  Both God's part and man's part are explained. Colorful illustrations and anecdotes  and picturesque language illuminate every page, clarifying the vital message of  this book.
