Synopsis
The Two Covenants: And The Second Blessing is a Christian book written by Andrew Murray in 1899. The book explores the two covenants mentioned in the Bible, the Old Covenant and the New Covenant. Murray delves into the differences between the two covenants and how they relate to the concept of salvation. He argues that the Old Covenant was a temporary arrangement that was replaced by the New Covenant, which is based on faith in Jesus Christ. Murray also discusses the concept of the second blessing, which refers to a deeper level of spiritual experience that some Christians seek. He argues that this second blessing is attainable through a deeper understanding of the New Covenant and the work of the Holy Spirit. Throughout the book, Murray uses biblical references and personal anecdotes to support his arguments. He encourages readers to seek a deeper relationship with God and to embrace the blessings that come with the New Covenant. Overall, The Two Covenants: And The Second Blessing is a thought-provoking book that explores important theological concepts in an accessible and engaging way. It is a valuable resource for Christians who are seeking a deeper understanding of their faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

About the Author
Andrew Murray (1828–1917) was a South African writer, teacher, and Christian pastor. Murray considered missions to be "the chief end of the church." Andrew pastored churches in Bloemfontein, Worcester, Cape Town and Wellington, all in South Africa. He was a champion of the South African Revival of 1860. In 1889, he was one of the founders of the South African General Mission (SAGM), along with Martha Osborn and Spencer Walton. After Martha Osborn married George Howe, they formed the South East Africa General Mission (SEAGM) in 1891. SAGM and SEAGM merged in 1894. Because its ministry had spread into other African countries, the mission's name was changed to Africa Evangelical Fellowship (AEF) in 1965. AEF joined with SIM in 1998 and continues to this day. He died on January 18, 1917, four months before his eighty-ninth birthday. Over the years he has influenced many, including Jessie Penn-Lewis, a key figure in the 1904-1905 Welsh Revival.
