John Owen was one of the most significant figures in Reformed
Orthodox theology during the Seventeenth Century, exerting
considerable religious and political influence in the context of
the British Civil War and Interregnum. Using Owen's sermons from
this period as a window into the mind of a self-proclaimed prophet,
this book studies how his apocalyptic interpretation of
contemporary events led to him making public calls for radical
political and cultural change. Owen believed he was ministering at
a unique moment in history, and so the historical context in which
he writes must be equally considered alongside the theological
lineage that he draws upon. Combining these elements, this book
allows for a more nuanced interpretation of Owen's ministry that
encompasses his lofty spiritual thought as well as his passionate
concerns with more corporeal events. This book represents part of a
new historical turn in Owen Studies and will be of significant
interest to scholars of theological history as well as Early Modern
historians.
