This important book is a composite of articles by John Nelson Darby which have been extracted from the Doctrinal Series of his Collected Writings volume 7 and volume 10. The articles deal with many aspects of divine righteousness : the true nature of justif ication, the Christian’s relationship to the Law, and related subjects. Of particular interest is the matter of so called imputed righteousness. The teaching that the Christian is under the “moral law” is dealt with in several of the articles. Some of the articles were originally part of a larger debate between Darby and his antagonists. The thread of these debates may be a little challenging for some to follow as the original articles of Darby’s opponents have been long out of print. Nevertheless, a careful reading and study of these will greatly reward the sincere student looking into these most important doctrines.
John Nelson Darby is best known as the architect of the most influential system of end-times thinking among the world's half-a-billion evangelicals. This book re-examines Darby's thought and argues that claims that Darby is the father of dispensationalism may need to be revised.
