Samuel Rutherford Books

Born in 1600, Samuel Rutherford converted in 1624 and began reading theology in Edinburgh. He served as a minister for nine years before he was barred from preaching because of his nonconformity. Exiled for two years, he wrote many letters that are now part of the collection titled Letters of Samuel Rutherford. In 1638, after the Covenanter revolution, he was named  Professor of Divinity at St. Mary’s College, St. Andrews; he agreed to accept if he was allowed to regularly preach. He did so and also began publishing material on theology. Samuel Rutherford books include The Loveliness of Christ and Trial and Triumph of Faith. The first of these contains extracts of some of Rutherford’s wisest and most powerful thoughts; one hundred years ago, this book was called “a small casket stored with many jewels.” The second book expounds upon Christ’s gracious words to a Canaanite woman.
