Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Select Practical Writings of Richard Baxter, Vol. 1 of 2: With a Life of the Author In making the following selections, I have, for obvious reasons, omitted those works of this venerated author which are familiar to the Christian public; and have been guided by a desire to provide a book suited to the wants of private Christians, and of Christian families. Had it been my object to afford the theological scholar the means of judging respecting Baxter´s opinions and his modes of reasoning on disputed subjects in divinity, these two volumes would have been made up of very different materials. The writings of Baxter are distinguished, even above those of his cotemporaries, by the peculiarities of the man and of the age in which he lived. Those only who know what the author was, what were the vicissitudes through which he passed, what were the changes and commotions of the times in which he lived, and what were the men with whom he had to do, - can enter fully into the spirit of his writings. It is simply with a view of helping the unlearned reader to a knowledge of the man and of the age, that the Life of Baxter has been prefixed to this selection from bis works. Literary men and theologians will find the more extensive and labored work of the late Mr. Orme on the same subject, much better adapted to their use. When I began the preparation of these volumes, I expected to see the end of them much earlier. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
