Edmund Calamy (1600–1666) was an English Presbyterian church leader and divine. He was an active member of the Westminster Assembly, and distinguished himself in defense of Presbyterian polity, in contributing to the joint conciliatory work known as Smectymnuus. During this time, Calamy was an influential evangelical preacher, with a ministry throughout England, including being present during the dreadful fire of London in 1666.
This work really needs no introduction; it would be enough just to let Rev. Doolittle loose on your soul. It is a puritan gem, few of which exist and have been republished in this format.
This treatise was originally a series of sermons preached to his congregation, which he then took and combined into the present treatise. There are 8 sermons, each building upon the former, and all surrounding the need to hasten and come to Jesus Christ quickly. They are succinct, biblically sound, filled with pastoral concern, but equally commanding and authoritative.
Nicholas Byfield (1579–1622) was a fiery Reformed minister of the Gospel and scholarly puritan divine. He was extremely popular in his day and widely respected as a studious theologian and deep preacher of the Word.
