Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matthew Mead guides Christians who wish to know whether they have taken the spiritual and emotional steps necessary to attain conversion to the faith. Mead takes a multi-faceted approach to conversion; the journey of Christians varies in length, some must walk far and do much to enter the faith. Many must try for successive years, held back by personal circumstances or persistent shortfalls of character. What keeps a person 'almost Christian' is discussed at length, with examples given of those who frequently come close, but do not quite make it and become true believers in the Lord. The central pillar of Christian belief is the admission that Christ is the keystone to all salvation; there can be no half-measures in this. Another common pitfall is refusing to accept aspects of Christ's divinity, or his prophecies or his being the Son of God. Refusing to give up a sin, be it one of pride, lust or weak will, is another trait that keeps a believer 'almost Christian'. Writing in the mid-17th century, Mead was part of the Puritan movement, working as an educator and lecturer on religious topics. He worked at multiple churches in England and in Holland, and was affiliated to the east London borough of Stepney for most of his life.

This book was released on 2014-01-22 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, many who profess Christianity ask "How close to the world can I get and still be a Christian?" In 'The Almost Christian Discovered,' Puritan author Matthew Mead shows from Biblical examples just how close one can get to Christ and still NOT be a Christian. Mead takes example after example of people who demonstrated great signs of spiritual life but were never truly converted to Christ or as he puts it be "an almost Christian". Each example is taken from Scripture. For example, Mead shows us that one can have great and eminent spiritual gifts such as healing, cleansing and casting out demons but not be a Christian. Certainly this describes Judas. Like the other apostles, Judas is sent out in Matthew 10:7-8 to preach the gospel, heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons. Yet, Judas was not saved. Other topics covered by Mead include the possibility of having great hatred for sin and still being be an "almost Christian", or that some show great signs of repentance and are still "almost Christians." True to Puritan pastoral form there is also a section dealing with those who have an overly sensitive conscience. Mead desires to convict the hypocrite, not break the bruised reed. For a generation raised on grace, where everyone can claim to be "born again," his book offers much to ponder. It is a great book for home Bible study, discipleship class, Sunday school or for personal edification. It also makes a great gift for pastors or any serious student of theology. Mead's point: it is possible to be zealous for God and still miss heaven. His book helps expose this truth, together with ways to avoid such an eternal disaster.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Almost Christian Discovered: Or the False Professor Tried and Cast It can scarce be needed, for most of the readers into whose hands this volume may come, to commend a writer so well known as the Nonconformist worthy, Matthew Mead, or to bespeak respectful and devout perusal for a book, so long and widely circulated, and so greatly useful, as has been his treatise, "The Almost Christian." He was of the times of Owen, Bunyan, and Baxter. How high a place the man and his writings occupied, in the esteem of the eminent author of the "Call to the Unconverted," and of the "Saints' Best," a single reference may sufficiently prove. In the great work of Richard Baxter, on the morals and casuistry of the gospel, his "Christian Directory," he furnishes lists of volumes suitable to form the library of a Christian.

Book excerpt: Reader, You have here one of the saddest considerations imaginable presented to you, and that is, "How far it is possible a man may go in a profession of religion--and yet, after all, fall short of salvation; how far he may run--and yet not so run as to obtain." This, I say, is sad--but not so sad as true; for our Lord Christ does plainly attest it, "Strive to enter in at the strait gate; for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in--and shall not be able!" My design herein is, that the formal, sleepy professor may be awakened, and the hidden hypocrite discovered; but my fear is, that weak believers may be hereby discouraged; for, as it is hard to show how low a child of God may fall into sin--and yet have true grace--but that the unconverted sinner will be apt thereupon to presume; so it is as hard to show how high a hypocrite may rise in a profession--and yet have no grace--but that the true believer will be apt thereupon to despond. The prevention whereof, I have carefully endeavored, by showing, that though a man may go thus far, and yet be but almost a Christian--yet a man may fall short of this, and be a true Christian notwithstanding. Judge not, therefore, your state by any one character you find laid down of a false professor; but read the whole, and then make a judgment; for I have cared, as not to "give children's bread to dogs," so not to use the dog's whip to scare the children! Yet I could wish that this book might fall into the hands of such only whom it chiefly concerns, who "have a name to live--and yet are dead;" being busy with the "form of godliness," but strangers to the "power of it." These are the proper subjects of this treatise. May the Lord follow it with his blessing wherever it comes, that it may be an awakening word to all such, and especially to that generation of profligate professors with which this age abounds; who, if they keep to their church, bow the knee, talk over a few prayers--think they do enough for heaven, and hereupon judge their condition safe, and their salvation sure--though there be a hell of sin in their hearts, "and the poison of asps is under their lips;" their minds being as yet carnal and unconverted, and their conversations filthy and unsanctified. If eternal life be of so easy attainment, and to be had at so cheap a rate--why did our Lord Christ tell us, "Strait is the gate and narrow is the way which leads unto life--and few there are who find it?" And why should the apostle perplex us with such a needless injunction, "to give diligence to make our calling and election sure?" Certainly, therefore, it is no such easy thing to be saved--as many make it; and that you will see plainly in the following discourse. If you are either a stranger to a profession, or a hypocrite under a profession, then read and tremble, for you are the man here pointed at. But if the kingdom of God has come with power into your soul; if Christ is formed in you; if your heart be upright and sincere with God--then read and rejoice. May the mighty God, whose prerogative it is to teach to profit, whether by the tongue or the pen, by speaking or writing--bless this tract, that it may be to you as a cloud of rain to the dry ground, dropping fatness to your soul, that so your fleece being watered with the "dew of heaven," you may "grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." In whom I am your Friend and Servant, Matthew Mead, London, October, 1661.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In typical Puritan fashion, Mead shows the many ways that a person can be deceived into thinking he is a Christian when, in fact, he is merely an "almost Christian." Short and readable, this classic will help you to examine yourself to see if you are, indeed, in the faith. Mead's purpose is two-fold: to shake nominal believers who may be very "religious" out of their complacency, and to give true believers the comfort of their security. Contains a foreword by John MacArthur.

This book was released on 2016-05-14 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "'The almost Christian'-if there be one thing more than another, which its pages are fitted to produce, it is a godly jealousy. To awaken this, and realize the fruits of it, is the author's chosen purpose. It is truly a searching volume. Its author saw the havoc which an easy credulity in matters of religion was spreading among professors of his own time; his spirit was stirred within him, at the thought of the delusion which it propagated, and the immensity of the interests which it bartered away; and in discharging a duty to the men of his generation, he has put on record a word in season to us.
