Please allow me to direct you to my blog post about this book. I include 2 embedded youtube videos, one link to play.google.com which does an amazing job in presenting the book in various formats, and this block quote from page 69:
"When Jesus said, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest," he was speaking not as a philosopher calling pupils to his school; but as One who was in possession of rich stores of divine grace.

They did not yet know fully how Jesus could make them children of God; but they did know that He could do it and He alone. And in that trust all the theology of the great Christian creeds was in expectation contained."
