A Heavenly Conference
เจเจธ เจเจกเฉเจ-เจเจฟเจคเจพเจฌ เจฌเจพเจฐเฉ
A Heavenly Conference is Richard Sibbesโ exposition of the memorable meeting that took place on the first Easter Sunday when the risen Christ met Mary Magdalene at the empty tomb. Though only a few words were exchanged between the Lord and Mary, Sibbes saw in them the gospel in a nutshell.
A Heavenly Conference is a wonderfully original treatment of the doctrine of the believerโs union with Christ. It is written by a loving and tender-hearted pastor whose main aim is to help believers enjoy the comfort that comes from knowing that Jesusโ God and Father is our God and Father too. โFor from this, that God is our God, cometh all that we have that is good in nature and grace. Whatsoever is comfortable cometh from this spring, that God in Christ is our God, our reconciled God.โ
Without such assurance, we simply cannot live Christian lives as God would have us. God would have us thankful, cheerful, rejoicing, and strong in faith: but we will be none of these things unless we are sure that God and Christ are ours for good. Here, then, are pastorally vital truths that Sibbes seeks to work into us.

Richard Sibbes (1577โ1635) was an Anglican theologian. He is known as a Biblical exegete, and as a representative, with William Perkins and John Preston, of what has been called โmain-lineโ Puritanism because he ever remained in the Church of England and worshiped according to the Book of Common Prayer. He attended Cambridge and later wrote several devotional works expressing intense religious feeling, including The Saintโs Cordial, The Bruised Reed, and The Soules Conflict, as well as a volume of sermons.
