Volume 28 of The Complete Works of John Owen explores Owen’s work

worship.
The ESV Church History Study Bible is designed to help believers in
all seasons of life understand the Bible-featuring 20,000 study
notes from church history's most prominent figures.
George Whitefield was the leading evangelical clergyman of the
eighteenth century and one of the driving forces, humanly speaking,
of revivals on both sides of the Atlantic. Yet until now, his
sermons have been left as an untapped resource for today's
church.
Editor Lee Gatiss has thus reproduced 57 sermons that were
originally authorized to be published by Whitefield himself in the
late 1700s, in addition to two sermons edited by Gillies for
Whitefield's Works, and two more that are of great importance.
Gatiss includes careful and extensive footnotes detailing the
historical and theological background to Whitefield's preaching,
which puts the man and his messages into context for a new
generation of readers. The text has also been updated for the
twenty-first century with modern grammar, spelling, and
punctuation--revised in a manner that leaves Whitefield's distinct
voice intact and coherent for today's reader.
Finally, the powerful and passionate preaching that set the
world on fire in the Great Awakening is available to all in this
two-volume set.

Volume 14 of The Complete Works of John Owen explores the
dangers of heresy and the importance of preserving the purity of
Christian doctrine, holiness, and worship. It has been edited for
modern readers by Joel R. Beeke.
365 daily readings from one of the greatest theologians of the
Puritan movement John Owen (1616-1683) was one of the best known
and most prolific English church leaders of the 17th Century. His
writings have been a challenge and encouragement to believers
throughout the centuries since and have influenced many leaders in
the church today. In this attractively bound faux leather book, Lee
Gatiss has selected a reading from John Owen's writings for each
day of the year. Theologically sharp, these readings will help you
to see the majesty of God anew. Includes some extracts from Owen
that are not currently in print anywhere else, and freshly
translations of his Latin works. Each reading is just a page long
but is packed with theological insight. Spending a little time with
this giant of the faith every day will help you to delight in the
joy of the gospel again.
Volume 7 of The Complete Works of John Owen includes 2 treatises on
illumination and biblical interpretation-written by 17th-century
theologian John Owen and edited for modern readers by Andrew
Ballitch.
Often caricatured, so-called 'limited atonement' is the doctrine
that Jesus came definitely to save those particular people given to
him by his Father. In a clear and comprehensive overview, Lee
Gatiss examines the biblical and doctrinal case for this
controversial teaching, explores key moments in its historical
development, and expounds its implications for ministry today. 'a
masterful, mini-treatise... I heartily commend this clear-headed,
warm-hearted treatment.' J.I.Packer 'Gatiss makes his case
patiently, respectfully, firmly. Those who disagree will find
themselves much better informed; those who are sympathetic will
rejoice to see the case freshly made.'
Puritan ministers saw themselves as ambassadors for God, called to
proclaim his word and shepherd his people. They sought to pastor
and lead people through the word clearly preached and the
sacraments rightly administered, and by means of a godly church
discipline. In this second compilation of recent St. Antholin's
Lectures we see and hear the Puritans in action, and are encouraged
to apply their godly wisdom in our own day. Peter Adam Word and

'Puritans', says J I Packer, 'saw themselves as God's pilgrims,
travelling home, God's warriors, battling against the world, the
flesh, and the devil, and God's servants, under orders to do all
the good they could as they went along'. In this fi rst compilation

"Whilst the Calvinistic doctrines were the language of our pulpits
as well as of our Articles, the Reformation made a swift and
extensive progress. But ever since our Articles and our pulpits
have been at variance, the Reformation has been at a stand."
(Augustus Montague Toplady) At every Coronation for over three
hundred years, British Monarchs have promised to maintain, "the
true profession of the gospel... the Protestant Reformed religion."
At a time when many Evangelicals and Anglicans are questioning
their theology and re-thinking their identity, it is more important
than ever for us to remember this gospel of sovereign grace. This
book shows how God has used the Reformed gospel of 'grace alone' to
revitalise churches riddled with immorality and flagging in meaning
and purpose. With a focus on hymn-writer and theologian Augustus
Toplady, it retells the story of Reformation and Revival for a new
generation looking to draw strength from its roots. "Toplady
represented a strand of Anglicanism which sought to stand in
continuity with both the Church of England's Reformation roots and
the more precise articulation of Reformed Orthodoxy. Lee Gatiss
does a fine job of recovering this aspect of Toplady for today."
(Carl Trueman, Westminster Theological Seminary) "Readers will find
this study at once encouraging and challenging. It is a strong
example of the way in which historical writing can be both
responsible and transparently useful for the church today." (Garry
Williams, The John Owen Centre, London). Lee Gatiss is a graduate
of New College (Oxford), Oak Hill (London), and Westminster
Seminary (Philadelphia), and has worked for churches in Oxford,
Kettering, and London. He and his family live in Cambridge where he
is researching seventeenth century biblical interpretation.
In these days of spiritual ignorance in the country and doctrinal
laxity in the church, many Anglicans look back to former times with
a certain degree of wistfulness. One date lingers in the collective
Anglican memory as suggestive of a golden era: 1662. Yet 1662 was
not a good year for those to whom the gospel and a good conscience
were more precious than the institutional church. Hundreds of
'evangelical' puritan ministers were forced to leave the Church of
England. Persecution of "dissenters" such as Richard Baxter, John
Bunyan, and John Owen continued for a quarter of a century as they
were banned from preaching and their like-minded congregations
forbidden to meet. This study examines the reasons for the Great
Ejection and Persecution, and the things modern day Anglicans and
Free Churches can learn from these easily neglected events. Lee
Gatiss is Associate Minister of St. Helen's, Bishopsgate in the
City of London and Editor of The Theologian: The Internet Journal
for Integrated Theology at www.theologian.org.uk. Having read
Modern History at New College, Oxford and trained for Anglican
ministry at Oak Hill Theological College he completed a curacy in
Northamptonshire before moving to London. He is a member of the
Latimer Trust Theological Work Group and the Editorial Board of the
journal Churchman.
