Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a Christian devotional text from the 15th century. The author explains that the truths contained in Jesus Christ's life, rather than worldly knowledge, will lead to true happiness and fulfillment. The text is divided into four books, each focusing on a different aspect of the Christian life: the following of Christ, the nature of the inner life, the means of spiritual progress, and the nature of divine comfort. Each book contains practical advice on how to live a more virtuous life, with a strong emphasis on humility, patience, and charity. The author reminds the reader that the Christian life is full of challenges but that God's grace will sustain them on their journey toward salvation. The book's insights into the nature of Christian discipleship and the importance of a relationship with God have made it a classic of Christian literature and remain relevant to readers today.

The only 1828 issue listed was from a New York publisher. ~SSS~ [1.0P] A rare 1828 Philadelphia issue of John Wesley's 'extracts' from the fifteenth century devotional classic The Imitation of Christ. Anglican cleric and theologian John Wesley (1703-1791), who, with his brother Charles and fellow cleric George Whitefield, founded Methodism, made a full translation of The Imitation from Latin to English in 1735 as one of his first published works. After the birth of the Methodist movement in 1738-39, Wesley produced this greatly abridged version, entitled 'An Extract of the Christian's Pattern,' first printed in 1741 and reprinted dozens of times thereafter in mostly tiny, pocket-sized editions like this, most of which did not survive heavy devotional use by adherents and are therefore rare today in the market. Wesley produced four different editions of Kempis?s work and considered it indispensable in achieving true religion of the heart. The Imitation of Christ was written (or at a minimum, transcribed) by Catholic monk Thomas a Kempis (circa 1380-1471), as four separate books completed between 1420 and 1427, at Mount Saint Agnes monastery, in the town of Windesheim, located in what is now the Netherlands. He wrote these works for the instruction of novices of his Augustinian monastic order, followers of Geert Groote's Brethren of the Common Life. But the writings quickly became popular among all the literate faithful. They were copied together in one manuscript as early as 1427, by Kempis, and copied (and later printed) together fairly consistently thereafter. Soon after hand-copied versions of the Imitatio Christi initially appeared, the printing press was invented, and it was among the first books after the Bible to be printed. There is probably no other book other than the Bible which has been printed in so many editions and translations.…
