Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Discourse of God's Sovereignty: With Other Material Points Derived Thence; Namely, of the Righteousness of God, of Election, of Redemption, of Effectual Calling, of Perseverance I have known the Author long (full twenty-eight years) to have had a spirit greatl addicted to, andffi'ected with, the savory knowl edge of the truths ere delivered. And though he hath not had the use and help of fetei languages, wherein these points have been mostly written; yet may say of him (as 1 Tim. 4: He hath been long nourished up in the words of faith and good doctrine; and thereunto he hath so far attained, as to be able to cut_the strongest sinews of the principal objections which the adversaries have inva. Ded these truths with. And further, to establish the positive truth, hath backed and confirmed the same by solid arguments, and perti nent scriptures genuinely explained and Opened. And, which to me is yet more, he hath extracted the most spiritual, quickening cordials, which the doctrine of grace and election afi'ords plenty of, whereby to comfort all sorts of believers; exhorting and directing the whole company and body of them, how to manage their faith between God and their own souls, in point of election: persuading them all to com mit and betake themselves wholly to God's carrying on their salva tion, in the way of election: and all along hath strewed his discourse with useful exhortations and applications of the doctrines he does deliver; mixing uses lor practice, with the rational discussions, and the ruggeder controversials; which hath been a defect complained of in others, to the reproach of the doctrine itself; and made an argu ment, that the doctrine is not true, seeing 0mm serum est barium, and both are inseparable affections of being. Upon these and like considerations, I de heartily commend this treatise to the judicious reader, nothing doubting, but that it will satisfy the weakest Chris tians, as it hath approved itself to several divines; heping also that this edition will do as much good to men's souls as the termer cdi. Tions have done. The blessings of heaven go with it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
