About this audiobook
The Glad Tidings is E. J. Waggoner's luminous exposition of Paul's Epistle to the Galatians, written as a theological argument for the freedom, assurance, and transforming power found in the gospel of Christ. Its style is direct, devotional, and exegetical, combining close biblical reasoning with an urgent pastoral warmth. Situated within nineteenth-century Protestant debates over law, grace, covenant, and justification, the book reads Galatians as a proclamation that righteousness is received by faith rather than achieved by human striving. Ellet J. Waggoner was a physician, editor, and influential Seventh-day Adventist theologian, best known for his role in the 1888 Minneapolis General Conference, where he helped foreground the doctrine of righteousness by faith. His medical training, editorial discipline, and deep engagement with Scripture shaped a prose that is both analytical and evangelistic. The Glad Tidings reflects his conviction that Christian obedience flows from union with Christ, not from legal compulsion. This book is recommended to readers interested in Pauline theology, Adventist history, and classic Protestant spirituality. It will especially reward those seeking a clear, impassioned account of grace as the heart of Christian life.
