In this collection, Derek W. H. Thomas has curated a selection of benedictions delivered by his colleague and friend, Dale Ralph Davis. Best known for his profound insights into the Old Testament, Davis understands the profound importance of holding onto God's unwavering promises.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDale Ralph Davis bid farewell to his role as Minister in Residence at First Presbyterian Church in Columbia, South Carolina, in the spring of 2018, and this book was presented to commemorate the occasion. Prior to his tenure at First Presbyterian Church, Davis and his wife, Barbara, resided in Mississippi. Ralph had previously served as the pastor of Woodland Presbyterian Church in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, and held the position of Professor of Old Testament at Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson, Mississippi. In addition to his pastoral responsibilities, he authored several widely acclaimed books.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Benedictions are gospel words,\" as stated by Derek W. H. Thomas. They serve as a poignant reminder at the end of the service that we inherit the blessings of God's covenant through the sacrifice of Christ, who bore its curses. Following every worship service, we conclude with a profound realization that as Christians, we dwell under the protective embrace of the Almighty, finding solace beneath His wings, for the wondrous truth is that we are liberated from the condemnation of sin. – Derek W. H. Thomas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"But as the final hymn concludes, there remains one final word of gospel grace as he pronounces the benediction,\" as noted by Sinclair B. Ferguson. Ralph Davis, in his delivery of the benediction, is not merely offering prayers for us; he is proclaiming to us the entirety of our inheritance, which is bestowed upon us through our faith in Christ. What a fitting way to conclude the Lord's Day and embark on the week ahead. – Sinclair B.
