Sermons from the Commonwealth and Protectorate (Volume 19)
Crossway Books (Verlag)
978-1-4335-6048-4 (ISBN)
Regarded as one of the greatest theologians in history, 17th-century pastor John Owen wrote extensively on holiness, Scripture, the Trinity, missions, and ecclesiology. His classic works—which have inspired Christian thinkers including Charles Spurgeon, J. I. Packer, and John Piper—remain influential, but until now haven’t been offered in an easy-to-read collection.
The Complete Works of John Owen is a 40-volume project that brings together all of Owen’s original theological writing, reformatted for modern readers. Volume 19 includes some of the most important sermons that Owen delivered on the national stage in which he urged his audience to commit to personal godliness and further reformation of church and state. Together they offer an explanation of the rise, and eventual fall, of the English Revolution. With extensive introductions by editor Martyn C. Cowan, this volume also includes outlines, footnotes, and other supporting resources.
Edited and Formatted for Modern Readers: Presents Owen’s original writing, newly typeset with insightful introductions, outlines, text breaks, headings, and footnotes
Part of the Complete Works of John Owen Project: This collection, which includes material not previously published, will release 40 hardcover volumes over a number of years
Perfect for Churches and Schools: Written for students, pastors, theologians, and those interested in the sermons of John Owen
