Spiritual Desertion (Classics of Reformed Spirituality)
Listen to a message from Westminster Professor of OT Douglas Green on abandonment entitled Psalm for the Sufferers. (Requires a free account at WTS).
Publisher's Description
First published in 1646, Spiritual Desertion offers comfort and consolation to believers whose circumstances cause them to wonder if God has abandoned them. Further Reformation leaders Gisbertus Voetius and Johannes Hoornbeeck demonstrate that the anxiety of doubting believers is proof that God has not abandoned them; rather, it is evidence of the work of the Spirit in their hearts.

Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
“I am delighted that the Dutch Reformed Translation Society is at last making the material available in the English language. It is a landmark feature of our Reformed heritage, and its is rich food for the soul in this or any other age.”
J.I. Packer
Regent College
“Many will surely welcome this new access to the Dutch authors whose strong writings put faith and certainty into the generations of their fellow countrymen. By their closeness to Scripture and their concern for heart and head (heat and light), they remain of enduring value.”
Iain H. Murray
author of The Puritan Hope
