Description:The Puritans believed that godly marriages were foundational for the future life of families, churches, and nations. Therefore, they wrote prolifically on the subject of marriage, seeking to bring biblical reformation to this subject in a comprehensive way. Martin Luther, John Calvin, and other previous Reformers had begun this task, but the Puritans took it much further, writing a number of detailed treatises on how to live as godly spouses. Out of the wealth of material available to us from the seventeenth century, Joel R. Beeke and James A. La Belle have gathered together insights from the past and summarized them in a contemporary form in order to encourage modern day coupled to glorify God in marriage.Table of Contents:1.The Institution and Honor of Marriage2.The Purposes and Benefits of Marriage3.Securing a Good Entrance into Marriage4.Preserving the Honor of Marriage5.The Mutual Duties of Love and Chastity6.The Mutual Duties of Help and Peace7.The Wife’s Duties in Marriage8.The Husband’s Duty of Love9.The Husband’s Duty of Authority10.Concluding Counsel Appendix: George Swinnock’s Prayers for Husbands and WivesDeepen Your Christian LifeFrom the late 1500s to the early 1700s, Puritan ministers wrote thousands of Christian books that contain massive amounts of biblical, doctrinal, experiential, and practical instruction to energize your Christian life. In the early seventeenth century, nearly 20 percent of the material coming off English presses consisted of Puritan sermon material popularized in book form. Unfortunately, many believers today find it difficult to read the antiquarian Puritan language and, when they attempt to do so, find themselves more frustrated than energized. This series, Deepen Your Christian Life, presents in contemporary language the major teachings that several Puritans wrote on subjects that are seldom addressed adequately, if at all, today.
