The Land of Life and Rest Studies in the Book of Joshua: Keswick Bible Readings - Paperback
by W. Graham Scroggie (Author)
"We must strive eagerly to attain that rest" (4:11): and this word "strive eagerly" is the same as that in Joshua 4:10, where we read that "the people hasted and passed over" the Jordan. From this we see that faith is not a substitute for effort, and that effort can never be a substitute for faith. The truth about practical holiness has suffered at times, because it has been represented as something that needs not the effort of man for its realization. This, however, is not true. Just because we are rational and moral beings, we have some responsibility for our own sanctification.
W. Graham Scroggie (1877-1958) Baptist minister, Bible expositor and author. He studied for the ministry at Spurgeon's College, London and after early pastorates in England, he began his most influential ministry at Charlotte Chapel, Edinburgh. He exercised an extensive travelling ministry in the British Isles and North America. His final pastorate was at the Metropolitan Tabernacle, London. He wrote mane books, mostly expository studies. In this exposition Graham Scroggie reflects that "As the artist and the musician must study the masterpieces if he would know the power and possibilities of their arts, so the Christian must study prayer if he would be proficient in it".
