There is an effort today to redefine repentance, denying the biblical definition. This book deals with issues that are the subject of some modern misinformation. Dr. Ironside's gracious handling of this important subject comes as a breath of fresh air, dispelling the fog.
From the back cover:
"It is especially timely that this book should be reprinted at this time. It deals with issues that are the subject of some misinformation and misunderstanding. Dr. Ironside's clear and gracious handling of the subject comes as a breath of fresh air, dispelling the fog." —William MacDonald
Henry Allen Ironside (1876-1951) was born into a believing home in Toronto, Canada. After his father's death, the family moved to California in 1886.
Ironside was converted in 1890. He preached his first sermon in the open air from Isaiah 53:6. He was interrupted by an older co-worker, who gave him a tug on his coat, "Boy, we should have been in the hall twenty minutes ago. You'll have to tell us the rest some other time." Often, Ironside would say, "I have been trying to tell the rest all through the years since."
After a stint in the Salvation Army (1890-1896), he labored as an itinerant evangelist and Bible teacher until 1930 when he became the regular preacher at Moody Memorial Church in Chicago. During his residence there, he wrote this book. From 1948 until his death, he returned to his itinerant ministry. Besides a herculean preaching schedule for most of his active career, he authored more than sixty volumes.
