  • A Puritan Theology: Doctrine for Life (Joel Beeke)

    A Puritan Theology: Doctrine for Life offers a groundbreaking treatment of the Puritans’ teaching on most major Reformed doctrines, particularly those doctrines in which the Puritans made significant contributions.

    Since the late 1950s, nearly 150 Puritan authors and 700 Puritan titles have been reprinted and catalogued by Joel Beeke and Randall Pederson in their 2006 collection of mini-biographies and book reviews, titled, Meet the Puritans. However, no work until now has gathered together the threads of their teaching into a unified tapestry of systematic theology.

    A Puritan Theology, by Joel Beeke and Mark Jones, attempts to do that. The book addresses Puritan teachings on all six loci of theology, covering fifty areas of doctrine. The book explores Puritan teachings on biblical interpretation, God, predestination, providence, angels, sin, the covenants, the gospel, Christ, preparation for conversion, regeneration, coming to Christ, justification, adoption, church government, the Sabbath, preaching, baptism, heaven, hell, and many other topics.

  • The Almost Christian Discovered (Matthew Mead)

    Back in print in a new edition! The Almost Christian Discovered, a classic Puritan work, was written in 1661 and is one of the most important books ever written. The primary point which Mead presents is this:
    “There are very many in the world that are almost, and yet but almost Christians; many that are near heaven, and yet are never the nearer; many that are within a little of salvation, and yet shall never enjoy the least salvation; they are within sight of heaven, and yet shall never have a sight of God.”

    Mead helps his readers to consider twenty (20) signs which most persons would say are the traits of true Christians; then he effectively shows, using biblical examples, how each of them may be equally true of non-Christians.

  • The Doctrine of Repentance (Thomas Watson) (#18)

    Repentance is one of the least used words in the Christian church today. In a world that will not tolerate a mention of sin, and in churches where sin has been defined only in sociological terms, the biblical teaching on repentance has inevitably been ignored. Knowing what repentance is, and actually repenting are essential to true Christianity. Jesus Christ Himself said that if we do not repent, we will perish!

    It is vital, therefore, to study what Scripture has to say about this theme. Few men have ever provided a better guide to this area of spiritual experience than Thomas Watson. He was a master of both Scripture and the human heart, and wrote with a simplicity and directness that keeps his work fresh and powerful into the 21st century.

    Few better guides have existed in this or any other area of spiritual experience than Thomas Watson. He was a master of both Scripture and the human heart, and wrote with a simplicity and directness that keeps his work fresh and powerful for the twenty-first century.

Owen shows how the power of the Holy Spirit may be relied upon for success in this battle.

    Fighting sin with human strength will produce only self-righteousness, superstition and anxiety of conscience. But with faith in Christ, and with the power of the Spirit, victory is certain. The temptations in times like Owen’s and ours are obvious on every side; the remedy to them is clearly pointed out in this practical and helpful book.

  • The Godly Man’s Picture (Thomas Watson) (#20)

    The ways in which Watson illustrates the traits of a godly man truly is like an artist painting pictures: the reader will feel as if he is with a master illustrator, as Watson was perhaps the most skilled Puritan writer and preacher of all, at drawing memorable illustrations with his words. His skillfulness at this reminds one of the way in which the Lord Jesus taught with parables.

  • Light From Old Times (J. C. Ryle)

    The 19th century was an age that witnessed great progress in many areas of exploration and learning. However, according to J.C. Ryle, it was an age of great ignorance too. ‘With all the stir made about education’, he wryly observed, ‘the ignorance of our own country’s history is something lamentable and appalling and depressing.’

    What particularly distressed Ryle was the scant knowledge of the English Reformation evident amongst his contemporaries. In this lay a grace danger: one of the reasons so many congregations drift form their evangelical foundations is their sheer ignorance of Christian history, and their lack of understanding of the major doctrinal controversies and why they matter.

    So Ryle taught that one of the best ways to stop Christians wavering ‘with every changing wind of doctrine’ (Eph. 4:14) is to instill in them a deep love for Reformation and Puritan teaching, and a willingness to suffer for those gospel truths. The Bible often calls us to remember the past, Ryle explained, but the devil tries to make us forget. If the church is to be strengthened, then Christians must be persuaded to read the saints of the past and to learn the lessons of church history.

  • Meet the Puritans: With a Guide to Modern Reprints (Joel R. Beeke)

    Not since the 19th-century work of Benjamin Brook on the Puritans has there been such a resource book about them put into print. “Beeke and Pederson have produced a tremendous gift to and resource for all who want an entryway into the study of the Puritans. They not only provide accurate biographical and theological introduction to every Puritan whose works have been reprinted in the last 50 years, but also combine with their helpful summaries an insightful analysis.

    If this were not enough, they’ve added major appendices that include the Scottish Puritans – those great Scottish theologians who were contemporaries of and like-minded brethren in doctrine and piety with the English Puritans, as well as the Dutch Reformed divines. This is a must-have. I know of nothing like it. If you are looking for a reliable window into the life, theology, piety and ministry of the Puritans, this is it.”  — Dr. Ligon Duncan, Senior Minister, First Presbyterian Church, Jackson, Mississippi

  • The Works of John Newton (4 volumes)

    Newton has a firm place in the classics of Christian literature. While his style is strong and clear, it is the spiritual attractiveness and importance of his main themes which secure the permanent value of his writings. Most of his books came, unpremeditated, out of a need to help his congregation or individual hearers, and it is in practical helpfulness towards Christian living that he excels.

  • Flowers from a Puritan’s Garden (C. H. Spurgeon) (#52)

    Charles Spurgeon was a lover of the Puritans, but was especially fond of Thomas Manton.

Contains one full year of daily readings. Now we have these daily devotional readings taken from Spurgeon’s favorite Puritan, back in print!

    Thomas Manton’s complete works filled 22 volumes with rich theology and commentary on Scripture, from which Spurgeon selected his most-loved nuggets of wisdom and exposition of Scripture; Spurgeon also added some of his own devotional thoughts to the volume.

  • The Christian in Complete Armour (William Gurnall)

    “If I might read only one book beside the Bible, I would choose The Christian in Complete Armour.” — John Newton, 17th century English pastor and author of the hymn Amazing Grace. 

    “Gurnall’s work is peerless and priceless; every line is full of wisdom; every sentence is suggestive. The whole book has been preached over scores of times, and is, in our judgement, the best thought-breeder in all our library.” (Charles Spurgeon).

    The book is a vast collection of sermons on Ephesians 6:10-20, on being “strong in the Lord.”

    “The world is a battleground, the Christian life a warfare, the devil an enemy. Sin makes us vulnerable, but Christ provides well-tested armour and assures His people of victory. This is the biblical and Puritan view of the life of faith, and few authors have understood it more accurately or described it more vividly than William Gurnall.

    Generation after generation of Christians have found wise counsel and lasting encouragement in the pages of Gurnall’s grand book.

  • The Fear of God (John Bunyan) (#54)

    Published the year after his Pilgrim’s Progress, in 1679, Bunyan’s Treatise on the Fear of God takes a widely misunderstood and neglected theme, wipes off the grime of confusion, and lets it sparkle. And sparkle really is the word: where most assume that the fear of God must be the gloomy theological equivalent of eating up your greens, Bunyan shows what a delightful and helpful subject it is.
