William Spurstowe (1605–1666) was an English, Calvinistic minister, theologian, and member of the Westminster Assembly. He was one of the Smectymnuus group of Presbyterian ministers, who went on to provide core leadership for the anti-episcopal forces in the Church of England, continuing into the Westminster Assembly, where they also opposed the Independent movement.
This work is a compilation of Spurstowe’s available sermons. These sermons are eminently practical, highly spiritual and demonstrate Spurstowe’s ministerial ability to be a powerful preacher for Christ and His kingdom. There are two funeral sermons, one dealing with death not being a stumbling block for Christians, taken from Psalm 17:15, “As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when I awake, with thy likeness.” (Psa. 17:15).
The other on the reward of faithful believers being as a crown of life given in heaven, taken from Rev. 2:10 (which is worth the cost of this volume alone). ” Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.” (Rev. 2:10).
Also contained in this work are his sermons before the Parliament and the Westminster Assembly, as well as his sermon on the magistrate’s duty before God.
This is not a scan or a facsimile, but a newly typeset work updated and made easily readable.
