Description
The Footsteps of the Flock (Classic Reprint Series)
By: J.M. Davies
The value of knowing what the Scriptures teach regarding separation cannot be overestimated. The truth is taught in the Word of God by direct instruction as well as by type and illustration. Concerning the Lord Jesus we read that the Father testified of Him, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased”. It is His desire that we should please Him too. It should be our greatest joy to do so.
“Separation” is the idea at the root of Sanctification – a setting apart for God. This is and has always been His purpose for His people. “Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles’ wings and brought you unto myself” (Exodus 19:4).
It is beautifully expressed in Psalm 4:3, where in contrast with those who turned His glory into shame and loved vanity and sought after lies, the psalmist would have them “know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for Himself”. Yet again in Titus 2:14: “Who gave Himself for us that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works”.
If we are to know this in our own personal experience we must set ourselves apart, for He has set us apart. The author has carefully and systematically searched the Word of God for teaching on this vital subject.
