The Covenants and the Covenanters: Covenants, Sermons, and Documents of the Covenanted Reformation #1

Here we have some of the most moving sermons ever addressed to a people and their nations, given before the most solemn of occasions - national covenant renewal! Alexander Henderson, Andrew Cant, Joseph Caryl, Edmond Calamy and a host of other Puritan Covenanters are included here in easy to read modern (1895) type. Anyone interested in seeing the royal prerogatives of King Jesus once again trumpeted throughout the nations, on a national and international scale, needs this book - for these men 'were setting up landmarks by which the city of God will be known at the dawn of the millennial day' (Thomas Sproull cited in the Reformed Presbytery's Short Vindication, p. 38).

'These Covenants, Sermons, & Papers mark important events in that great struggle by which these three kingdoms (England, Scotland & Ireland-RB) were emancipated from the despotisms of Pope, Prince, and Prelate, & an inheritance of liberty secured for these Islands of the Sea. The whole achievements of the heroes of the battlefields are comprehended under that phrase of Reformers and Martyrs, 'The Covenanted Work of Reformation.' The attainments of those stirring times were bound together by the Covenants, as by rings of gold. The Sermons here were the product of the ripe thought of the main actors in the various scenes-men of piety, learning, and renown' (Preface).
