The collected writings of John Nelson Darby
The price may be substantial but

Looks really interesting.
I may be finally able to get rid of my printed copies which are great, but it is very impractical to find relevant sections in the paper copies.

I'll put in my prepub order and hopefully have the funds when it reaches production.

Many thanks for this.
I have always wanted to examine the extent of Darby's Calvinism which would be really time consuming without a search function. I would also love to see if he mentions his debates with Moody that broke down over this issue.
This collection would be valuable to so many people with it's insights into the development of dispensationalism and the Brethren movement.0 -

Mike,
Something that might help a little.
(Count it as advertising until the Pre-Pub comes through. It might be a while......[:^)]"If we look at the difference of Arminian and Calvinistic preaching, we shall see the bearing of this at once. The Arminians take up Christ's dying for all, and generally they connect the bearing of sins with it; and all is confusion as to the efficacy and effectualness of Christ's bearing our sins, for they deny any special work for His people. They say, If God loved all, He cannot love some particularly; and an uncertain salvation is the result, and man often exalted. Thus the scapegoat is practically set aside.
The Calvinist holds Christ's bearing the sins of His people, so that they are effectually saved; but he sees nothing else. He will say, If Christ loved the church, and gave Himself for it, there can be no real love for anything else. Thus he denies Christ's dying for all, and the distinctive character of propitiation, and the blood on the mercy-seat. He sees nothing but substitution.The truth is, Christ is said to love the church, never the world. That is a love of special relationship. God is never said to love the church, but the world. This is divine goodness, what is in the nature of God (not His purpose), and His glory is the real end of all. But I do not dwell on this, only pointing out the confusion of propitiation and substitution as necessarily making confusion in the gospel, enfeebling the address to the world, or weakening the security of the believer, and in every respect giving uncertainty to the announcement of the truth. I believe earnestness after souls, and preaching Christ with love to Him, will be blessed where there is little clearness, and is more important than great exactitude of statement. Still it is a comfort to the preacher to have it clear, even if not thinking about it at the moment; and, when building up afterwards, the solidness of the foundation is of the greatest moment."—Collected Writings Vol. 29

I'm in for this.[Y] Not a lot of interest right now showing at http://www.logos.com/product/16522/the-collected-writings-of-john-nelson-darby I think this is one everyone should go for.

Perhaps a bid of $90 is too high & putting off some potential bidders.

I'm in at $50.

I just saw this Prepub and in an attempt to get more attention to it and save me 100's of dollars buying the paper copies I am bumping this thread...

Well I lowered my bid to $70 to see if it helps

So little interest? This deserves to be published.

Yes, but perhaps too narrow and more important as an historical resource to get the support some of us feel it deserves! I'd love to be able to search and integrate all of this into my Logos library.

Too high for my taste and I was raised PB. [:$]
I will never pay as much as it is at now. [:(]
Lower the higher bids so the peak is at around 50 and you MAY see some movement on the item.[:^)]

Good point. I lowered my bid. Let's see if a lower peak around 50 can develop and generate some movement.

50's good for me [Y]

I just lowered my bid to $40

Here is how it looks today. [:|]
Since hardly any one is changing their bids to around 50 dollars, the peak is still way too high.
What we need are NEW bids at the 50 dollar level.
People need to learn that the red (you bid way not succeed) only counts the moment that the bidding closes [:D]
If we could get rid of the scale changed so it only goes up to 90 at 5 dollar jumps, it would not look so bad. [:'(]
Just my two cents. [:^)]
