Description
Imitation of Christ With Illustrations & Biography of Thomas a Kempis
Imitation of Christ is a writing of the mysticist Augustian monk between 1420 and 1427. It is widely considered one of the greatest manuals of devotion in Christianity. This is book read by many saints of the past: John Wesley, John Newton, General Gordon, Pope John Paul I when he died, Rizal before he got executed.
The meditation on the spiritual life contains clear instructions for renouncing wordly vanities and locating eternal truths.
It is better to read this book a little here and there, now and then, than to try gobbling it cover to cover.
Imitation of Christ is no triumph of orderly thinking, but it's a great monument and incentive to deep living.
To read about the works of the author, one must also learn to understand his life. For this reason, I have included the biography of Thomas a Kempis in this Special Edition.
The life of Christ and Jesus’ teachings are documented in spirutal depth. Topics that are covered include: acestism, prayer, submission to authority, warnings against temptation, how to resist temptation, reflections about death and judgement, meditations upon the oblation of Christ, communion, admonitions to flee the vanities of the world.
Meditate upon the words & you will learn how to live in meekness and humility, just as Christ was meek and humble of heart!
This is a much needed message to today’s Christians.
Enjoy!
