Andrew Murray
This is a powerful book for me, and I ve read it several times Murray a late 19th c pastor, very Christ centered writes, When I look back at my own religious experience, or on the Church of Christ in the world, I stand amazed at the thought of how little humility is sought after as the distinguishing feature of the discipleship of Jesus This book is both convicting as to my own lack of humility and encouraging, making humility seem very enticing Humility is the mark of a soul that has seen the g [...]
The fact that I m finished with this book should not by any means be interpreted to mean that I m finished with respect to humility In fact, this book quickly convinced me that I m not even started That s worth knowing if nothing else, but Murray also provides a hopeful path forward for those who are starting to perceive their own need.I think highly enough of Murray s Humility that I ve started working on my own simplified language edition, but don t wait for that to be done Get the original an [...]
This is a really amazing book about why being prideful is so terrible when we are Christians It talks about the relationships between humility and holiness, sin, faith, death to self, happiness exaltation It also gives some wonderful examples about how Jesus displayed humility, as well as the examples of humility lack of humility of his 12 disciples There are so many important lessons here about being humble before God, but most importantly being humble in our everyday life among others You coul [...]
WOW A fairly accurate indicator of how I enjoy and digest a book is how many quotes I keep I picked up of Murray s phrasing than I probably have from the last five books I have read And this was a very short book.He looks at humility as primarily a vertical issue, the major indicator of one s relationship with God The likes of How to Win Friends and Influence People can teach the outward habits of seeming humility, but Murray is not so easily satisfied Real humility, he argues, requires a compl [...]
This book was recommended to me by a close friend, who told me that if he could only get people to read one book other than the Bible, it would probably be this one Naturally, I was impressed, and having now finished it, I can see why he felt that way.To me, the greatest teaching books are the simplest ones, and this book is both simple, and extremely powerful The author does not waste words the book is quite short but clearly and beautifully presents the truth that humility is the essential cha [...]
Below are some of my favorite quotes from the book Is it any wonder that the Christian life is so often feeble and fruitless, when the very root of the Christ life is neglected, is unknown Is it any wonder that the joy of salvation is so little felt, when that in which Christ found it and brings it, is so little sought Until a humility which will rest in nothing less that the end and death of self which gives up all the honor of men as Jesus did, to seek the honor that comes from God alone which [...]
No one wants to think of him herself as an arrogant, prideful, conceited person, but after reading this book, one will have no other choice, but to admit that the number one virtue eludes our understanding The one thing the body of Christ needs to imitate is the one thing we refuse to practicemility The bragging, overlooking each other and boasting is idolatry I have shared this book with several friends Their responses were staggering comments Nothing was said after they claimed they read the b [...]
This is such a convicting book, and the message it carries is soooo not popular in this society I think the self esteem self congratulations , and self love philosophies that are so popular today have silently crept into my thinking, even though I m quick to make fun of any program or show that promotes those ideals The whole idea that of blessed nothingness is hard to grasp, but it was a major message of Christ when He was on earth He talked so much about being the servant of others, He continu [...]
Humility the Beauty of Holiness is a powerful little book less than 100 pages long, but full to overflowing with awesome insights into one of the Christian s most over looked character qualities One of the most convicting quotes for me is e only humility that is really ours is not that which we try to show before God in prayer, but that which we carry with us, and carry out, in our ordinary conduct the insignificances of daily life are the importances and the tests of eternity, because they prov [...]
Andrew Murray has repetitively been an author I ll read during a spiritual retreat He keeps me on the rails, and corrects blind spots that I ve ignored.I think the key message I got out of this book was to look at opposition as an opportunities to not take myself so seriously, to prefer others over myself, and allow space for Jesus to vindicate me As the song goes Humbly thyself in the sight of the Lord, and he will lift you up.
The best book on Humility I have ever read It is only 53 pages, but it s not a short read Take your time reading it for the best understanding and results Very nice read and much wisdom gained from Humility.
Beside the Bible this has been one of the most influential books I ve ever read Simple yet life changing truths.
There is, it seems to me, that there is a tension in the Bible between loving and accepting oneself and humbling denying oneself We are told on the one hand to love our neighbors as ourselves implying that we DO love ourselves and we are told on the other hand to deny ourselves and follow Christ who denied Himself as co equivalent with Father and Son in order to experience the indignity of human existence and death in disgrace In Humility, the distinguished pastor author of yesteryear, Andrew Mu [...]
This book was formative in my thinking and life several years ago It was good to read through it again and be reminded of the centrality of, the path to, and the blessings of humility.Some meaningful quotes from the book As God is the ever living, ever present, ever acting One who upholds all things by the Word of His power, and in whom all things exist the relationship of man to God could only be one of unceasing, absolute, universal dependence Man need only look back to the origin of existence [...]
Don t get me wrong Murray is dead on when he talks about humility being the key aspect of holiness, with pride being the terrible hindrance to holiness About halfway through I thought Murray started repeating himself and it got a little harder to focus as he talked about humility and ____ for several chapters I wish everyone would read Murray s treatise though, because humility is not only lacking in the church but in the world as a whole As one of my agnostic friends says It s nice that Christ [...]

The call to humility has been too little regarded in the church because it s true nature and importance has been too little apprehended It is not a something which we bring to God, or He bestows It is simply the sense of entire nothingness, which comes when we truly see how God is all and which we make way for God to be all In the life of earnest Christians, of those who pursue and profess holiness, humility ought to be the chief mark of their uprightness This book accurately defines true biblic [...]
At the beginning of my edition Bethany House 2001, also pictured in the thumbnail , Susan Nikaido says This is a book to be underlined, mediated on, quoted, prayed over, and read again and again Don t read this book too fast if you do, go back and think about what you ve read It s short but packed with precious nuggets of truth that deserve meditation and reflection.My second time reading it, the words are just as challenging and piercing as when I first encountered this little gem Excellent dev [...]
I read this book every six months It s like a spiritual detox from all the self help messages of the world.
One of the most useful and powerful books I ve ever read and reread Simple yet profound I would consider this must read material for any serious seeker of the kingdom of God.
I am impressed by what our brother saw, that humility is not mere brokenness In their spiritual history men may have had times of great humbling and brokenness, but what a different thing this is from being clothed with humility nor an outward attribute Look not at pride only as an unbecoming temper, nor as humility only as a decent virtue for the one is death, and the other is life So much as you have of pride within you, you have the fallen angels alive in you so much as you have of true humil [...]
That God may be all.I listened to this as an audiobook instead of reading it I think that was a mistake, because if I d been reading a physical copy I would have gone over every paragraph about three times the way it deserves to be read and probably gleaned waaaaaay Then again, that would have taken forever, so maybe the audiobook wasn t a mistake But that phrase That God may be all, kept repeating, over and over, each time as wonderful as the last.This is beautiful book, emphasizing how humili [...]
Now to turn back to page 1 and start again
Very edifying I found myself making some theological compensating corrections in my mind in relation to his Higher Life theology of sanctification, but there is penetrating insight of pride and humility here.
A must read for any Christian or someone wanting to understand what truly makes Jesus stand out Hands down It was a blessing to read a chapter a day starting out 2018.
Bite sized chapters allow for a quick and easy read, but it s the content of these chapters that cause this book to shine This little book has dramatically reframed what I ve viewed humility as being and I ll be sure to return to this little book time and again Murray s writing has blessed me and I m sure it will be than ready to bless you as well.
Maravilloso Realmente un libro que Dios usar para mostrarte una radiograf a de tu coraz n.Maravilloso Realmente un libro que Dios usar para mostrarte una radiograf a de tu coraz n De esos que son para regalar a aquellos que amas.
Lots of goodness packed into a little book.
While this book isn t very long, it holds a wealth of wisdom in it s pages What struck me the most is when he speaks on the humility of Jesus I know Jesus is perfectly humble, but hearing this perspective broadens the definition of just how humble to another level If you are seeking to bring humility into your life then this book is well worth a read.
