The Soul’s Porter, or a Treatise on the Fear of God

Price’s works are rare. The first is a treatise on the fear of God. He expounds, “The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom,” Proverbs 1:7, and, “Let us hear the conclusion of all: Fear God…” Eccl. 12:13. He covers the nature and kinds of fear in general and more specifically and practically the fear of God. He shows the proper distinguishable symptoms of the fear of God, and essential ingredients that constitute true, genuine fear. Price gives a serious exhortation to fear God as well as the means by which the fear of God may be worked on and increased. Also contained in the volume is his sermon “Man’s Delinquency Attended by Divine Justice Intermixed with Mercy.” This is not a scan or facsimile, and has been updated in modern English for easy reading.
