He cast in his lot with those who left the Established Church at the Disruption and served at Panbridge (Carnoustie) and Free Greyfriars, Edinburgh, till illness forced his retirement from the ministry at the age of 42. Thereafter, he devoted himself, despite recurring ill health, to writing, preaching and continued involvement in church issues.<\/p>\n<p>A prolific writer, he is remembered today for his commentary on <em>Jonah<\/em> and for <em>The Shadow of Calvary<\/em> both still available from the Banner of Truth Trust.<\/p>\n<p>Most of the sermons in <em>Christ For Us<\/em> were transcribed from Martin&#8217;s handwritten notes by the late Principal James Mackintosh of the Free Church College, Edinburgh. The title is taken from Martin&#8217;s remark: &#8216;The Scriptures in explaining the scheme of redemption make frequent use of expressions of this general form: &#8216;Christ for us&#8217;&#8230;Jesus was by the Father appointed&#8230;our Surety, our Representative. The scheme of redemption is founded on a marvellous exchange of places between Christ and his people, he taking theirs, they being translated into his. He became their federal Head. He became Christ for them.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>What was said by a contemporary of Martin&#8217;s book <em>The Atonement<\/em> is equally true of these sermons: &#8216;The author brings to bear extraordinary powers of reasoning, warmed and animated by a soul that has felt the blessedness of an interest in the blood of atonement.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"toctoggle\">Table of Contents <a class=\"button\" href=\"#toc\">Expand \u2193<\/a><\/h3>\n<div id=\"toc\" class=\"table-of-contents\">\n<table border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\"><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\"><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Page<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\"><\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Biographical Introduction<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Vii<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">1<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Righteousness of Faith<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">1<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">2<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Eternal Priesthood of Christ, and the Father\u2019s Oath<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">10<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">3<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Confession and Forgiveness<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">29<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">4<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Crucified with Christ<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">48<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">5<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Mediator\u2019s Reward<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">67<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">6<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Perfected For Ever<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">83<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">7<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Free Indeed<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">101<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">8<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Precept, Promise, and Prayer: An Illustration of the Harmony between \u00a0 Divine Sovereignty and Human Agency<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">114<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">9<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Plague of the Heart<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">139<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">10<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Heart Plagues Cured<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">157<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">11<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Those that are Christ\u2019s: A Pre-Communion Address<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">171<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">12<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Risen Life: A Communion Sermon<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">181<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">13<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Hidden Life<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">192<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">14<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">Blessings in Christ<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">209<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td valign=\"top\">15<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">The Sons of God<\/td>\n<td valign=\"top\">225<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sermons in which Martin (1822-85) traces all blessings to Jesus. 261pp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4714,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[1228],"product_tag":[16780],"class_list":{"0":"post-431","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-sermons-and-expositions","7":"product_tag-books-by-hugh-martin","8":"pa_binding-paperback","9":"pa_class-bp","10":"pa_era-19th-century","11":"pa_format-book","12":"pa_isbn-2999","13":"pa_original-pub-date-1877-actually-1998","14":"pa_page-count-3001","15":"pa_recent-pub-date-mar-1-1998","16":"pa_recent-pub-date-year-6196","17":"pa_scripture-new-testament","18":"pa_short-isbn-3003","19":"pa_subtitle-sermons-of-hugh-martin","20":"pa_theauthor-martin-hugh","21":"pa_topic-jesus-christ","23":"first","24":"outofstock","25":"sale","26":"taxable","27":"shipping-taxable","28":"purchasable","29":"product-type-simple"},"bundled_by":[],"bundle_stock_status":"outofstock","bundle_stock_quantity":null,"bundle_virtual":false,"bundle_layout":"","bundle_add_to_cart_form_location":"","bundle_editable_in_cart":false,"bundle_sold_individually_context":"","bundle_item_grouping":"","bundle_min_size":"","bundle_max_size":"","bundle_price":[],"bundled_items":[],"bundle_sell_ids":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Christ For Us &#8211;
