The burden of Positive Action For Christ is to equip Bible teachers to magnify the majesty of God. To that end, this classic reprint has been published. Nowhere have we found a book that so magnifies the beauty of Christ as this magnificent treatise on "faith and love."

John Fawcett, an 18th century English Baptist pastor, is perhaps best known for the hymn, "Blest Be the Tie that Binds." Christ Precious is less well-known, but it is a worthy treatise on the incomparable treasure believers possess in Christ.

Fawcett writes in his introductory remarks, "Without a sincere attachment to the Author of eternal salvation . . . whatever works of morality we may perform, our obedience will be materially and essentially defective, as not flowing from a proper principle." Positive Action For Christ has stepped into the ministry of publishing classic works on the theme of the glory of God and the treasure of Christ and the gospel in order to advance this very idea that Fawcett articulates so eloquently.
