Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Works of Thomas Brooks, Vol. 4 Issued in the year of the Ejection [1662], the 'Crown and Glory of Christianity' appears to have been limited to a single edition; which however must have been a very large one, as scarcely any of the writings of Brooks is more frequently met with. This is the most inaccurately printed of Brooks's books. I have carefully corrected his own list of errata: but besides these, mistakes of words, texts, references, divisions abound. It may be permitted us to refer to the author's own appeal on this matter toward the dose of his Epistle Dedicatory. The original title-page is given below. - G. The Crovvn & Glory Of Christianity: Or Holiness, The only way to Happiness. Discovered in LVIII. Sermons, from Heb. 12, 14. Where you have the Necessity, Excellency, Rarity, Beauty and Glory of Holiness set forth; with the resolution of many weighty Questions and Cases. Also Motives and Means to perfect Holiness: With many other things of very high and great importance to all the Sons and Daughters of men, that had rather be blessed then cursed, saved then damned. By Thomas Brooks, late Preacher of the Gospel at Margarets New Fish-street, and still Preacher of the Word in London, and Pastor of a Congregation there. To him that ordereth his conversation aright, will I shew the salvation of God, Psalm. 50. ult. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God, Matth. 5. 8. God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation, through sanctification of the Spirit, and belief of the truth, 2 Thes. 2. 13. London, Printed for H. Crips, J. Sims, and H. Mortlock, and are to be sold at their shops, at the entrance into Popes-head Alley out of Lumbard street, and at the sign of the Cross-keyes, and at the Ph nix in St. Pauls Church-yard, near the little North door, 1662.
