The Puritans on Loving One Another

Love is the chief evidence of reconciliation with both God and with our brothers and sisters in Christ. This collection of Puritan treatises explains the duty and delight of Christian love, how it is rooted in divine grace, and the way it serves as a healing bond of peace.

Works included in this volume:

• The New Commandment Renewed by Ralph Venning
• Love One Another by Thomas Manton
• The Nature and Principles of Love by Joseph Caryl
• The Holy Exercise of Love by John Ball

The Puritans have been unmercifully caricatured as stuffy, legalistic, insensitive, and irrelevant. You will discover nothing could be further from the truth in this collection of writings on Christian love for others.
