Background
Arrowsmith was born near Gateshead and entered Street John"s College, Cambridge, in 1616.
(John Arrowsmith D.D. was a member of the Westminster Asse...)
John Arrowsmith D.D. was a member of the Westminster Assembly and preached to the Long Parliament on a number of occasions. Daniel Neal says of him, “Dr. Arrowsmith was of an unexceptionable character of learning and piety. He was an acute disputant, and a judicious divine.” His name ought to be in the list of the eminent divines and, men of learning, who were real ornaments to the Reformed Church in the seventeenth century. In following the Apostle Paul, who would lay no foundation except that of Jesus Christ, Arrowsmith introduces the fundamentals of the Christian faith in this updated and made easier to read theological work. He masterfully knits together a chain of theological principles teaching and explaining the doctrines that defined the Reformation. Such principles include man’s blessedness which comes from God through Jesus Christ; the nature of Holy Scripture; the existence and attributes of God; the doctrine of election and reprobation, and finally the providence of God. This is not a scan or facsimile, and has been updated in modern English for easy reading. It also has an active table of contents for electronic versions.

Not illustrated. 1822 edition. Excerpt: ... end; "This thing becomes sin unto the house of Jeroboam, even to cut it off, and to destroy it from off the face of the earth." No wonder then, if when God's own peculiar people begin to distrust him, and by reason of unbelief take irregular courses for their advancement in the world, this very thing Melch. Adam. Vit. German. Theol. p. 134. f Psal. cxv. 13,14. % Prov. xx. 7. § Hab. ii. 9, 10, 11. II 1 Kings xiii. 34. proves an obstruction to that mercy, which and theirs might have otherwise been partal of. Such as would be sure to find him a shewing and "keeping mercy unto thousands," must be careful to be found in the number of those "that love him and keep his commandments," as he himself informeth us in the Decalogue. § 3. The seventh branch is, forgiving iniquity, transgression and sin. Where the terms are multiplied to note the readiness of God to forgive our offences, how many soever they be, though transgression be added to iniquity, and sin to transgression. How great soever they be Pescha, which signifieth rebellious, as well as CKattaah, which imports failings:f and of what kind soever they be, whether original, viz. the crookedness and perverseness of nature, intimated in Avon, the word used in that speech of David, "Behold I was shapen in iniquity," or actual, expressed by the two other terms. To help our understanding herein, the Holy Ghost in Scripture is pleased to make use of sundry expressions very significant, when he speaks of God's pardoning sin, viz. I. Taking it away, as in that place of Hosea, where the church is directed to make her addresses on this wise, "Take with you words, and turn to the Lord, say unto him, Take away all iniquity, and receive us graciously; so...

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

(John Arrowsmith (1602-1659) was educated in St. John’s co...)
John Arrowsmith (1602-1659) was educated in St. John’s college, Cambridge, and afterwards a chosen fellow of Katharine-hall. He was elected one of the university preachers, was beneficed at Lynn in Norfolk, a preacher at St. Martin’s, Lionmonger’s-lane, London, and chosen one of the Westminster Assembly of divines. He was elected master of St. John’s college, and was chosen master of Trinity college, Cambridge. He was a man of unexceptionable character, and of great learning and piety; an acute disputant, a judicious divine, and an excellent author. He died in February, 1659, aged fifty-seven years, and his remains were interred in Trinity college chapel. Arrowsmith preached many times before the House of Commons, but this sermon, “The Covenant-Avenging Sword Brandished,” is one of his most popular. Its text is taken from Leviticus 26:25, “I will bring a sword upon you, that shall avenge the quarrel of my Covenant.” He outlines and expounds three main points, namely, 1. War is a judgment of God’s own bringing. “I will bring a sword.” 2. The sword is an instrument of vengeance: “A sword that shall avenge.” And, 3. That which the sword comes to avenge, is some quarrel of God’s Covenant: “Avenge the quarrel of my Covenant.” This is a newly typeset publication. This is not a scan or facsimile, and has an active table of contents.
