The Way to True Peace and Rest (Robert Bruce)
$5.40Six Sermons on Hezekiah’s Sickness: Isaiah 38:1-22
It was said of Robert Bruce that ‘no man in his time spake with such evidence and power of the Spirit’. One is certainly left with that impression after reading The Way to True Peace and Rest, his six sermons on Isaiah 38, a chapter that records the illness that afflicted King Hezekiah of Judah and his reaction to it. Although various sicknesses are common to all humanity, yet people react in very different ways when such trials are visited upon them.
With a wonderful blend of faithful exposition, keen insight, and practical application, Bruce urges his hearers to ‘take heed to the various aspects of this account, that we may learn how to conduct ourselves in the event of our suffering some serious disease; thus, learning from King Hezekiah’s behaviour, we may come to obtain the same comfort he experienced.’

Duties of Christian Fellowship (John Owen) (#53)
$7.25John Owen’s Duties of Christian Fellowship deals with a matter of perennial concern for every truly Christian church. In just a few pages it sets out in very concise terms the responsibilities all Christians have, first, to their pastors, and then second, to one another within the fellowship of the local church.
John Owen was a pastor as well as a theologian and therefore this is a most practical manual of church fellowship. It was likely intended to be read by individuals with self-examination, meditation and prayer, but it would also be very suitable for group Bible study or adult Sunday School classes. This edition is enhanced by a modernized text and the addition of questions which have been added to facilitate group discussion.

The Great Gain of Godliness (Thomas Watson) (#39)
$8.75C. H. Spurgeon had a well-stocked library of Puritan books that contained around 12,000 volumes. However, one rare book was not to be found amongst that valuable collection: Thomas Watson’s Notes on Malachi 3:16-18. With a note of sadness in his voice he said to his College students: “This would be a great find if we could come at it, for Watson is one of the clearest and liveliest of Puritan authors. We fear we shall never see this commentary, for we have tried to obtain it, and tried in vain.”
In this reset and lightly edited edition you can now read the book that was on Spurgeon’s ‘wish-list’! Â Â The Great Gain of Godliness is Watson’s exposition of Malachi 3:16-18. Watson he aims “to encourage solid piety and confute the atheists of the world, who imagine there is no gain in godliness.” This book has all the hallmarks of Thomas Watson’s other writings: a combination of rich spirituality, nourishing doctrine, and sane practical wisdom coupled with fascinating illustrations and a very pleasant style.

The Marrow of Modern Divinity (Edward Fisher)
$23.50An intriguing book, quite unlike any other, The Marrow of Modern Divinity defies pigeonholing. Written in the 1600s by a Puritan author of whom we know little, yet it proved to be a critically important and controversial theological text.
Penned as dialogue between a minister (Evangelista), a young Christian (Neophytus), a legalist (Nomista) who believes Christianity is a set of rules to be obeyed, and Antinomista, who has decided sin is perfectly acceptable because God forgives anyway. Makes for a wonderfully insightful book, highly relevant in its approach to theology still today. Elaborates at length on the Law of God, the gospel, the Covenant of Works, the Covenant of Grace, the Ten Commandments, the Law of Christ, and the True Rest for Heart and Soul.

The Shorter Catechism Explained From Scripture (Thomas Vincent) (#16)
$8.75The shorter catechism has been used for centuries as a teaching basis for an introduction to the doctrines of the Christian faith. This London pastor of the 17th century made extensive use of it to train his young people, and his explanation of the catechism has been an invaluable, classic work, reprinted many times over the centuries.
In the opinion of B.B. Warfield, the Westminster divines left to posterity not only ‘the most thoroughly thought out statement ever penned of the elements of evangelical religion’ but also one which breathes ‘the finest fragrance of spiritual religion’. Their most influential work, ‘The Shorter Catechism’, was intended as a teaching basis for an introduction to the Christian Faith. No London pastor made more effective use of it than Thomas Vincent (1634-1678) and when this ‘explanation’ was first published in 1674, John Owen, Thomas Watson along with 38 other signatories to the Preface, declared their belief that it would ‘be greatly useful to all Christians in general’.

Art of Prophesying (William Perkins) (#23)
$8.00First published in 1592, this book on the importance of preaching is vivid testimony to how clearly understandable Puritan writings remain, even 400 years later! One of the most damaging flaws of modern churches is the decline in importance of what is said from their pulpits.
Today, a style and delivery which grabs the attention has replaced life-changing content in many churches, and the church becomes an image of excitement concealing a valley of dry bones. True preaching, seen as prophesying forth the Word of God, is needed to breathe fresh life into the people of God.
Few things are more evident in contemporary churches than the decline in the importance attached to what is said from their pulpits. The deeper tragedy is that in many places the church has become a valley of dry bones. Something is needed to waken the dead and to breathe new life into the people of God. William Perkins (1558-1602) provides basic guidance to help all Christians to read and use the Bible intelligently. He has a particularly powerful message for those who lead God’s people and especially those who preach.
The Art of Prophesying carries sparks capable of igniting a preacher. It should be beside every minister’s desk as a book to turn to again and again.

Temptation: Resisted and Repulsed (John Owen) (#40)
$7.20In this abridgement of John Owen’s classic work Of Temptation, the famous Puritan theologian opens up Matthew 26:41, carefully explaining what temptation is and what it means to enter into it. Owen then shows how Christ teaches two means for Christians to use in order to guard against this danger, namely watching and praying:
“These two”, Owen says, “comprise the whole endeavour of faith for the souls preservation from temptation”, and he insists that it is the duty of every believer to follow diligently Christ’s instructions to avoid falling into temptation. Owen helpfully applies his teaching, explaining how we can know whether we have entered into temptation, what practical steps we should take to preserve our souls from entering into it, how to identify those particular times when people tend to enter into temptation, and showing us the best ways of watching the heart itself.

Apostasy from the Gospel (John Owen) (#21)
$8.00The subject of apostasy – that is, the study of what leads one who has professed faith in Christ to change his mind and return to living for the world of sin, is not on most people’s list of pleasant subjects to meditate upon.
The idea that one who confesses Christ may in time prove not to be a true Christian is too gloomy a prospect for many in our “positive-thinking” age. But it is a Biblical truth that requires some consideration, if only for the sake of watching guard over our own souls. Owen’s work, as usual, is a masterpiece of penetrating discernment to the very roots of the matter.
Now, in this updated English abridgement of John Owen’s Apostasy From the Gospel, Dr. R. J. K. Law makes its powerful teaching readily accessible to modern readers. Some will find its pages deeply soul-searching; others will be struck with the clarity of Owen’s insight; all will find a work which wounds in order to heal.

Knowing Christ (Mark Jones)
$14.50The Puritans loved the Bible, and dug into it in depth. Also, they loved the Lord Jesus, who is of course the Bible’s focal figure; they circled round him, centered on him, studied minutely all that Scripture had to say about him, and constantly, conscientiously, exalted him in their preaching, praises, and prayers.
Mark Jones, an established expert on many aspects of Puritan thought, also loves the Bible and its Christ, and the Puritans as expositors of both; and out of this triune love he has written a memorable unpacking of the truth about the Saviour according to the classic Reformed tradition, and the Puritans supremely. Knowing Christ is a book calculated to enrich our twenty-first-century souls, and one that it is an honor to introduce.
