Publisher's Synopsis
The Triumphs of Divine Grace is a poetic work in two parts, authored by Samuel Merrick Phelps and originally published in 1835. The poem is a celebration of the power and majesty of God's grace, as seen through the experiences of various biblical figures and other historical figures who have been touched by divine intervention.In the first part of the poem, Phelps explores the triumphs of grace in the Old Testament, beginning with the creation of the world and continuing through the stories of Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and David. He emphasizes the ways in which God's grace has sustained and uplifted these figures through difficult times, and how their faith and devotion have been rewarded with blessings and miracles.The second part of the poem focuses on the triumphs of grace in the New Testament, particularly the life and teachings of Jesus Christ. Phelps highlights the ways in which Jesus embodied divine grace through his teachings of love, forgiveness, and compassion, and how his ultimate sacrifice on the cross was the ultimate triumph of grace over sin and death.Throughout the poem, Phelps employs a rich and lyrical style, using vivid imagery and powerful metaphors to convey the depth and beauty of God's grace. The Triumphs of Divine Grace is a work of profound spiritual insight and inspiration, and a testament to the enduring power of faith and devotion in the face of adversity.Contains Part 1, The History Of The Penitent Sinner; Part 2, A Description Of The Millennial Reign Of Jesus Christ On Earth, By A Converted Israelite.
