"Every Divine truth bears a relation to him: hence the doctrine of the gospel is called 'the truth as it is in Jesus ,'" according to Andrew Fuller. Biblical history is the story of the truth as it is in Jesus. Fuller never lost sight of this foundational truth. His pastoral commitment to pursue the truth as it is in Jesus transformed every aspect of Fuller's thinking, including his understanding of the task of preaching, sermon preparation, and the preparation of the preacher himself. He believed in the primacy of faithful, Christ-centered expository preaching. Of preaching, he wrote, "Oh how important! We preach for eternity!" These pages call the reader alongside Andrew Fuller as he teaches us through his writings and sermons to "Preach not only the truth, but all truth, ' as it is in Jesus .'" "I'm delighted to see Preaching the truth as it is in Jesus in print. My delight is threefold. First, Andrew Fuller is one of the greatest but lesser known Baptists of church history. He merits rediscovery. Second, because this book, as did Andrew Fuller, drips with the gospel of Jesus Christ. Third, this book is another helpful tool in interpreting and applying the text in light of Christ. Kudos to David Prince for assembling this fine work." Jason Allen , President, Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary "Andrew Fuller is a hero of mine. He is an example par excellence as a pastor, preacher, theologian, and mobilizer for missions. He and his writings are not as well known as other Christian leaders in his day for whatever reasons. David Prince has set out to correct this problem, and he has succeeded magnificently. Giving his primary attention to Fuller's preaching, Prince explores the brilliance of the man who, as much as William Carey, helped launched the modern missions movement. This book is a treasure. I will consult it again and again with the prayer that I can finish my race like Andrew Fuller finished his." Daniel L. Akin, President, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary "Preaching the truth as it is in Jesus by David Prince opens up a world of fascination and edification I know almost nothing about but am glad to encounter. How privileged all of us are that the treasures of Andrew Fuller's ministry are here available to us pastors today. We can be strengthened by this faithful testimony from 'the great cloud of witnesses' as we run the race in our generation." Ray Ortlund , Renewal Ministries, Nashville,
