Puritan

John Trapp was an English puritan Bible commentator. He wrote five volume commentary on the whole Bible and a few treatises on the Christian life.

This treatise "God's love tokens, and The Afflicted man's lessons" has not been reprinted for a long time. For past few weeks I have been reading his comments on the Bible, and receiving much blessing in my morning devotion. So, I have decided to research and find an old copy. The result is this new reprint of the that good old book.

This is one of the best treatments on sanctification ever, by not so well known Puritan author. It is edited and with an introduction by Rev.Andrew Murray. Poet and a Hymn writer William Cowper from 1700s says of this book: "The doctrines Marshall maintains are, under the influence of the Divine Spirit, the very life of my soul, and the soul of all my happiness; that Jesus is a present Saviour from the guilt of sin by his most precious blood, and from the power of it by his Spirit".

An excellent Puritan treatise on the blessed union of Christ and his members. Very rare indeed.
