The fear of man lays a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is safe. Proverbs 29:25 The Practical Works of Richard Baxter has been republished many times in the past 300 years. It is a treasury of Baxter's unique wisdom and spiritual insight and has been influential in the thought and daily sanctification of many. In the section entitled Directions Against Inordinate Man-pleasing, Baxter offers a wealth of helpful instruction that is faithful to God's word in order to help guide believers away from the folly, danger, sin, and consequences of craving the favor of man. This guidance is no less applicable and suitable to modern believers, and it is here modernized in hopes of serving new generations that might otherwise never find it. The counsel and content provided here, being distilled from Scripture, will greatly benefit anyone in ministry, whether pastor, teacher, evangelist, missionary, counselor, or deacon - as well as as anyone who simply shares with other people the reason for the hope that is in them (1 Pet 3:15) Whether you're tempted by honor, favor, fame, or acclaim, distressed when your faithfulness may hurt the feelings of others, or trapped in the snare of the fear of man and the desire to please and serve everyone, this little book will help you find the way of escape and help you to rest, confident that you are being obedient and pleasing to God.
