Miel que sale de la roca

by Thomas Wilcox

Miel que sale de la roca es mencionado en 1740 por Thomas Crosby en su History of the English Baptist (Historia de los bautistas ingleses), donde escribió acerca de Wilcox: “Escribió un tratado breve, que fue impreso antes del Incendio de Londres, titulado: A Drop of Honey from the Rock Christ (Una gota de miel de Cristo, la Roca), un escrito que se estimaba mucho, que ha hecho mucho bien y ha sido reimpreso con frecuencia”. Además, ha sido traducido a numerosos idiomas. Titulado ahora Miel que sale de la roca, sigue alentando al pueblo de Dios dondequiera que se sirve a Cristo.

(my copy is not a Kindle, but this has the best cover)

A packed little pamphlet:

“Remember your sins, Christ's pardoning; your deserving, Christ's merits; your weakness, Christ's strength; your pride, Christ's humility; your many infirmities, Christ's restoring; your guilts, Christ's new applications of His blood; your failings, Christ's raising up; your wants, Christ's fullness; your temptations, Christ's tenderness; your vileness, Christ's righteousness.”

What a great small book! Drippings of honey out of the rock Christ!
Refreshing, gospel saturated and Christ honoring. Very highly recommended.

[Brady · Rating 5 out of 5]

A incredibly edifying tract which encourages readers to direct their attention to Christ, and only Christ.

I love this quote: "Healing from duty, and not from Christ, is the most desperate disease."

For being such a short book, it's a very dense book. It's a good book. It's a beautiful reminder of the many multifaceted blessings Christ is. He is a salve, a rock, and sweeter than anything ever dare compare. This is rich with theological truths and a great joy when you read slowly and see the love Wilcox has for his saviour.

[Joonas Laajanen · Rating 5 out of 5]

Short but sweet. Can be used as an evangelistic booklet to explain the nature of saving faith.

[Jack Christenson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wilcox's advice is timeless and wonderfully and thoroughly backed up by scripture. Great stuff.

[David · Rating 5 out of 5]

A small and potent tonic for the anxious and self-righteous.

[Rylan S. · Rating 4 out of 5]

A great reminder of the glorious all-sufficiency of Christ for his people, which is the essence of true religion. Powerful warnings against the danger of self-righteous and focus on the merit of Christian duty.
