Book Review:
Arthur W. Pink’s The Attributes of God is a profound, Scripture-saturated exploration of the nature and character of God—a work that has earned its place as a Christian classic. Originally published as a series in Pink’s monthly magazine Studies in the Scriptures, this book methodically examines key divine attributes such as God’s sovereignty, holiness, love, grace, wrath, patience, and faithfulness.

Unlike more sentimental or superficial treatments, Pink’s approach is deeply theological and reverent. Each chapter is grounded in biblical exposition, urging readers not only to understand God intellectually but to worship Him rightly. Pink’s writing is both precise and pastoral, blending doctrinal clarity with heartfelt devotion, making complex truths accessible without diminishing their majesty.

Pink, a Reformed Baptist preacher and theologian, writes with a conviction that knowing God is the highest pursuit of the Christian life. His insights challenge nominal faith and draw the reader into a deeper awe of God’s perfection and sufficiency.

This edition from Chapel Library continues to make Pink’s work available to a modern audience. It is an essential resource for pastors, theology students, and any believer hungry to know God more fully. While dense at times, its rewards are immense: a clearer vision of God, a humbled heart, and a strengthened faith. The Attributes of God remains one of the most important and spiritually enriching books on the character of God ever written. Highly recommended.
