Other editions of book The Force of Truth: An Authentic Narrative

The "Force of Truth" is an autobiographical account of how Rev. Thomas Scott came to his evangelical convictions. Initially, he became ordained in the Church of England, but was wholly self-centered and unspiritual. When he tried to argue with John Newton about doctrine, the two began to interchange letters, but then stopped. Thomas Scott set out on a course of self-study which led to a conviction of his own sin with the realization that he needed God’s grace. This edition contains eight letters from John Newton historically connected to the early period and reveal much of how Newton viewed the process of the revelation of God to sinners. A recommendatory letter was written by Rev. Samuel Miller for extended circulation in the United States, and also the inclusion of John Newton’s name where it had been left out in previous editions. The Force of Truth’s writing style and arrangement were overseen by William Cowper of Olney, before it was published in 1779.

Excerpt from The Force of Truth: An Authentic NarrativeHe feels thankful, that the leading desire of his heart, in publishing a work which seems to relate almost exclusively to himself and his own little concerns, has not been wholly disappointed but he would earnestly request the prayers of all who favour the doc trines he inculcated, for a more abundant and extensive blessing on this, and all his other feeble endeavours to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

About the Book In historical fiction the plot is set in the past, and pays attention to the manners, social conditions and other details of the period portrayed. Some authors choose to include famous historical figures in their fictional plots, so that audiences can imagine how those individuals might have responded to the plots and environments established by the author. The Western literary component of this genre is founded in the early 19th century works of such authors as Sir Walter Scott, Honoré de Balzac, James Fenimore Cooper, and Leo Tolstoy.Also in this Book Collections of Essays are anthologies that have been compiled in order to demonstrate the works of a number of essayists. The list of essayists who have been active throughout the world and throughout time, is extraordinary. And in this Book Our offering includes memoirs, or collections of memories that individuals have written about moments or events, both public or private, that took place in their lives. While the assertions made in these works are generally taken to be factual, the biases or perspectives of the authors are often present. Historically, memoirs have been defined as a subcategory of biography or autobiography, however the genre is differentiated in form, since it presents a narrower focus. While a biography or autobiography tells the story "of a life", a memoir generally tells the story "from a life", tending to emphasize touchstone events and turning points in the author's life experience. The authors are referred to as memoirists or memorialists.About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades.
