Apples of Gold. A Handbook for Christian MenAuthor: Thomas Brooks
<
>
"Apples of gold in pictures of silver" said Solomon about "a word spoken in due season" (Proverbs 25:11 and 15:23). So does Thomas Brooks when it comes to encouraging young men to seek godliness earliest in their lives, "in the flower of age". Brooks not sees godliness very valuable primarily in the light of eternity, but he also looks at its divine design to be useful and profitable at the same time on this earth. He starts with the advantages of being godly, goes on with the evils of young age, and reaches a peak talking about God's temporary and last judgment of sin. Then he identifies directions, helps, and exhortations that would stir and encourage every young man on the way to true and consistent holiness. Though this book has been originally published centuries ago, its valuable insights into the mind and heart of young men makes it worth its weight in gold. This book has been originally published in 1660. Current edition has been proofread, typeset for eBook readers, and slightly updated for modern readers. About the author: Thomas Brooks (1608–1680) was an English non-conformist Puritan preacher and author. He wrote extensively and with a keen eye on devotional Christian life. Brooks died in 1680, after over 40 years of Gospel ministry.
