Detectando a los hipócritasThomas Brooks La hipocresía, un tema del que nadie quiere, desea y anhela escuchar; una cuestión que en su esencia es duro, difícil y fuerte de recibir y digerir; algo de lo que nadie ha escapado de caer, pero del casi nadie está dispuesto a aceptar. La hipocresía, un mal que agobia a nuestra sociedad en todos los diferentes ámbitos: gobiernos hipócritas, habitantes hipócritas, familias hipócritas, etc.; e incluso más triste un mal que se ha inmiscuido en la iglesia de Dios: pastores hipócritas, diáconos hipócritas, miembros hipócritas y, al final, congregaciones enteras hipócritas. Existen males que pueden ser aborrecibles para unos pero agradables para otros. Uno aborrecerá la lujuria, pero otro amará y se deleitará en esta. Pero la hipocresía es uno de esos males que para todos es aborrecible. Entre los impíos la hipocresía es aborrecible, entre los cristianos la hipocresía es abominable, tanto los buenos como los malos concuerdan en su desprecio a este mal. Y esto no más muestra el carácter terrible de este mal. Pero ¿cómo ve Dios este pecado? Su aborrecimiento por este pecado se ve en Su Palabra de manera muy elevada. Por la hipocresía, ha traído juicios terribles a los hombres tanto terrenales como espirituales. Y, por la hipocresía, Dios da como recompensa justa a los hombres un lugar más profundo en los tormentos del infierno. ¡Qué terrible es estar en este pecado! Por lo tanto, qué necesario es tocar este tema, para que seamos advertidos, seamos reprendidos, seamos llevados al arrepentimiento, seamos instados a buscar la sinceridad cristiana, seamos instados a batallar contra este pecado. Curiosamente, entre los puritanos este es un tema del cual sus congregaciones no escapaban, predicando y escribiendo en contra de este pecado, Gurnall, Sedgwick, Baxter, Bolton, Adams, etc., son solo algunos de los muchos autores que hablaron sobre este tema. Y acá tenemos a Brooks, uno de los puritanos más queridos, tratándolo de la manera más clara, concisa, fuerte, convincente y tajante posible. En este tratado se nos expone las razones por las cuales la severidad de Dios recae sobre los impíos, se nos habla sobre cuáles son las características de aquellos que son hipócritas y, en último lugar, se nos declara hasta dónde los hipócritas no pueden llegar, diferenciándolos de aquellos que son sinceros. La utilidad de este tratado es indescriptible, nos sirve para descubrir a aquellos que son hipócritas, nos sirve para llevarnos al arrepentimiento por nuestra hipocresía, nos sirve para llevarnos a Cristo por salvación, nos sirve para humillarnos en gran medida por este pecado, nos sirve para ejercitar nuestro deber de autoexaminación con más ahínco, nos sirve para aborrecer este pecado con todavía más furia, siendo conscientes de cuánto contamina este pecado. Por lo tanto, es nuestro ruego y deseo que estas utilidades puedan ser una realidad para aquellos que no son creyentes como para aquellos que sí lo son al leer este escrito. Es un libro duro, fuerte y amargo, pero el beneficio espiritual que trae consigo es algo dichoso, agradable y dulce.

EL SECRETO PARA LA VICTORIA EN LA GUERRA ESPIRITUAL Y PARA CAMINAR EN EL PODER DEL ESPÍRITU SANTO El libro La llave secreta al cielo de Thomas Brooks es un manifiesto crucial sobre la oración privada, donde se indaga en su significado, necesidad y los múltiples beneficios que aporta a la vida del creyente. Brooks realiza un análisis exhaustivo de la oración íntima, abordando no solo aspectos prácticos sino revelando también su importancia fundamental como sostén de la vida cristiana, que es a la vez centrada en Dios y fructífera.>"Es difícil tener demasiados libros sobre la oración, aunque, por desgracia, a menudo es más fácil leer libros sobre la oración que ponerse a rezar. Todos necesitamos incitarnos a orar y este libro nos ayuda a ello. Como indica el título con su subtítulo, trata principalmente de la oración privada o personal, pero aunque éste sea su enfoque hay mucho que es aplicable a la oración en general. Brooks destaca por sus frases concisas y memorables, y una de ellas me pareció especialmente llamativa. Al final del libro habla de la oposición de Satanás a la oración secreta, y da razones para ello: "en parte porque la oración secreta es tan musical y deliciosa para Dios". ¿A quién se le habría ocurrido utilizar la palabra "musical"? Este puritano ciertamente debía amar la música para escribir de esa manera, y qué imagen evoca. La oración secreta es como una hermosa canción o melodía que entra por el oído de Dios; ¡qué incentivo para orar!"Paul E. Brown THOMAS BROOKS (1608-1680), es uno de los más conocidos puritanos ingleses, curso estudios en la Universidad de Cambridge donde destaco por su erudición y profunda piedad. Es autor de muchos libros entre los que se destacan Remedios preciosos contra las asechanzas del diablo, El cristiano enmudecido bajo la vara de Dios, entre muchos otros.

"The Secret Key to Heaven," a classic by noted Puritan author Thomas Brooks, is all about the benefits of private or "privy" prayer. Christians who are longing to know what the Bible says about prayer or how the Scriptures can lead into a deeper prayer life will undoubtedly be blessed by this book. Brooks leaves no stone unturned as he goes from passage after passage in the Bible to show the power that the believer has in prayer because of our God who answers prayer (Matthew 6:7-8; 7:7-11). Brooks covers a wide variety of prayer-related topics, beginning with a short study of who God is to under understanding how sin or a lack of faith can hinder prayer (Mark 11:22-24). Chock full of biblical teaching on prayer, this book will strength to the soul-not to mention encouraging readers to prayer longer and more. Overall, Thomas Brook's book is a solid one that is both practical (because it flows from Scripture not subjective experience) and stirs up your faith and a desire to pray (Romans 8:26-27). Every disciple of Jesus would benefit from reading this book on prayer. Thomas Brooks is an excellent author. His books speak deeply into the soul and spirit. The depth of his love of God and Jesus take the reader into a level of understanding prayer beyond the grasp of most authors. This is not a book to be read only once. A treasure of knowledge, it should be read and re-read-a "must read" for prayer warriors everywhere.

Thomas Brooks was a 17th century English non-conformist Puritan preacher. In Brooks' devotional Heaven on Earth he explains the nature of assurance and its importance in our worship of God.

"We Never Did It That Way Before" is a one of a kind book which follows the life and times of CSM Thomas Brooks (Ret), a noncommissioned officer in the United States Army. The book begins during the author's young years in rural Mississippi entering the United States Army in August of 1967. This was a time when young men could look forward to one definite thing in life…they would be drafted into the Armed Services. The narrative recounts how this young man rose from Private to the top of his chosen military field, achieving the rank of Command Sergeant Major of the United States Army Recruiting Command.Brooks believes his real challenges and accomplishments were in the Recruiting Command beginning just prior to the end of the Selective Service Draft in March 1972 through May 1998. It was there that he experienced all the growing pains and difficulties associated with the building of today's All-Volunteer Army, or the All-Recruited Army - a more accurate term.Throughout the book, CSM Brooks provides a detailed picture into the life of an Army Recruiter and takes the reader through the process of recruiting individuals into the United States Army. Brooks also writes about the importance of leadership, especially in the United States Army, and offers his wisdom and guidance to current and future recruiters.The United States Army Recruiting Command is a successful organization, which continues to accomplish the mission it set out to do more than forty years ago. That mission delivered the strength for our Army and eliminated the need for a biased Selective Service system which, at best, only provided bodies to fill vacancies, nothing more. The past four decades have been tough years for those who believed an All-Volunteer Army was feasible. CSM Brooks and fellow Recruiters wrote the handbook as they went. They made adjustments where necessary while continuing to march forward. The result is an Army second to none: highest paid, best trained, most educated and most capable of dealing with any threat from foreign adversaries. An Army that never says: We Never Did It That Way Before!
