"e;The Christian in Complete Armor"e; (written by Puritan William Gurnall in 1655) is an extensive exposition of Ephesians 6:10-18, and as such, stands as the quintessential playbook for spiritual warfare for the ages. By committing it to the printed page, William Gurnall has produced the definitive owner's manual of our spiritual armor and weaponry. The current edition (the product of more than two years of meticulous work) attempts, as much possible, to be a faithful reproduction of the Blackie and Son (Scotland) edition, published in 1865. While no attempt has been made at a thoroughgoing modernization, genuinely obsolete words or phrases have been replaced with those more common and intelligible to the contemporary reader. Archaic spellings have been modernized. Hundreds of Scripture references are embedded with hyperlinks no internet connection is required. Dozens of Greek and Hebrew terms are correctly rendered throughout the text.

God defines himself in Scripture as the very embodiment of love (1 John 4:16). As his children, he commands us to imitate him by loving one another deeply and authentically–a command that is second only to love for God and belief in his Son Jesus Christ. In "Love One Another", John Rogers teaches Christians what it means to love. Armed with Scripture and a keen intellect, he begins by discriminating between genuine and counterfeit marks of love, then diagnoses common spiritual ailments that manifest as a lack of love within us. Pastor Rogers then concludes by illustrating how Christians can show the love of Christ to their enemies, unbelievers outside the church, the poor, and finally to fellow believers.John Rogers (c.1570-1636) was a Puritan pastor who ministered in Essex, England. His dynamic preaching of God’s Word brought many to faith in Christ while simultaneously strengthening the faith of many more–but also drew the ire of his superiors in the Church of England.Originally published in 1629, this timeless text has been meticulously edited to benefit a new generation of Christian readers. Archaic language has been gently modernized, and helpful footnotes have been added to aid the reader. It includes a biographical preface, many helpful footnotes, and review questions designed to facilitate group discussion or personal reflection.

Edward Pearse died at forty of tuberculosis, but during his final months, he wrote this book as a guide to his congregation, in order to direct them to life’s one ‘great concern,’ namely, “to have all things set right, well-ordered, and composed in the matters of the soul before leaving this world.” With wonderful clarity, the author shows how putting the spiritual concerns of the soul into the best posture possible for the hour of death is in actuality the key to living an abundant, God-honoring life. Or as Pearse explains, “It is to fill up our time with duty, and our duties with grace; to use the time which is given to us in the pursuit of these ends—not to eat, drink, and please ourselves with creature comforts—but to serve and honor the Creator, to work out our salvation, to become acquainted with God and Christ, and to ensure ourselves of heaven and a blessed eternity.”Edward Pearse (c.1633–1674) was a Puritan pastor in London during a period of immense political and social upheaval in England. He (along with nearly two thousand other pastors throughout England) chose to resign his pulpit in 1662, rather than comply with the Act of Uniformity. Originally published in 1673, this classic work has been meticulously edited to benefit a new generation of Christian readers. Archaic language has been gently modernized, and helpful footnotes have been added to aid the reader. This edition includes a biographical preface, Scripture index, and review questions designed to facilitate group discussion or personal reflection.
