The book ""Utility and Glory of God's Immutable Purposes"" by Sereno Dickenson Clark was first published in 1857. It is a theological treatise that explores the concept of God's unchanging and eternal purposes. The author argues that God's purposes are not arbitrary or capricious, but rather are grounded in his perfect wisdom and love.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which examines a different aspect of God's purposes. The first chapter introduces the topic and provides a brief overview of the book's contents. The second chapter explores the nature of God's purposes and argues that they are eternal and unchanging. The third chapter discusses the relationship between God's purposes and human free will, arguing that God's purposes do not violate human freedom but rather work through it to accomplish his will.The fourth chapter examines the practical implications of God's purposes for believers, arguing that a proper understanding of God's purposes can lead to greater faith, obedience, and joy. The fifth chapter explores the relationship between God's purposes and the doctrine of election, arguing that God's purposes are not arbitrary but are grounded in his perfect justice and mercy.Overall, the book seeks to provide a comprehensive and biblical understanding of God's purposes and their significance for believers.
