The Christian In Complete Armour Or A Treatise On The Saints War With The Devil Vol 1 Of 4

Excerpt from The Christian in Complete Armour, Or, a Treatise on the Saints War With the Devil, Vol. 1 of 4: Wherein a Discovery Is Made of the Policy, Power, Wickedness, and Stratagems Made Use of by That Enemy of God and His People Such are the nature, number, power, and policy of the Christian's foes, he would sink in the prospect of them, but much more so in the combat, were it not for the rich provision God hath made, and the evidence he hath, that the battle is not his, but the Lord's. - Hence a discovery and explanation of every part of that provision, must be very acceptable to the awakened sensible sinner. - To such I am happy to recommend Gurnall, as one who appears to have been divinely assisted for that purpose; for whatever may be the situation of the humble follower of the Lamb, however varied and numerous his enemies, he will find a suitable piece of armour, in the use of which, victory is sure to be declared in his favor. - Though it ought to be remembered, that as there is nothing to secure the back, to flee from the enemy is always attended with danger, and has proved awfully fatal to many, see Matth. xiii. 20, 22. Reader, whoever thou art, of whatever name, is of no consequence, for names and parties must be entirely lost in the experimental teachings of the divine spirit; which is sufficient to satisfy me, that the animosities that have been promoted, in contending about them, are not only a proof of the infirmities of human nature, and the darkness of the mind; but that they have been the weapons by which Satan has failed many, and used to great advantage against the church, in order to take off their attention from those matters, that relate more immediately to the life of God in the soul; with which, if you are acquainted, you will have much pleasure, and I have no doubt much profit in viewing the Christian in complete armour. You will, as in a glass, see your own features, let your present feelings be what they may. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
