Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first volume of Greenham’s writings illuminate the biblical path every Christian should take to honor the Lord in their daily life. Whether seeking blessings, understanding the scriptures, embracing the marks of a righteous individual, or averting the pitfalls of hypocrisy and anger, his treatises (long or short) offer Scriptural insight. Greenham exemplified the essence of a practical puritan, always guiding believers towards a more sincere connection with the Lord Jesus Christ, emphasizing a life aligned with God’s Spirit. While Greenham was no doubt scholarly in laying the foundation for his theological insights, what resonates in his works is the palpable pastoral spirit and his heartfelt practical testament. Living in a tumultuous era, (even faced with the looming threat of the plague and mortality's shadow), his unyielding commitment to Christ stands out blatantly in his works. He is a light and example for those seeking refuge and purpose in a fallen world, emphasizing the unwavering adherence Christians must have to God's holy principles. Greenham’s works beckons all earnest souls towards Christ. Like a refreshing balm, his biblical insights provide comfort to those wrestling with their Christian walk and the myriad of challenges they face day by day as they walk with God. As readers immerse themselves in this first volume, they will be transported to high thoughts of God, realizing the fleeting nature of earthly existence and the timeless eternity of God’s truth. Greenham's words bolster our resolve, ensuring that when grounded in a holy resolve, our bond with Jesus Christ only strengthens, and draws us closer to the Savior.

Download or read book Prayer Despair and Drama written by Peter Iver Kaufman and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prayer, Despair, and Drama explores the godly sorrow of Elizabethan Calvinists and finds that what some have characterized as an evangelism of fear functioned more as a kind of religious therapy. In this major contribution to discussions of the relationship between religion and literature in Elizabethan England, Peter Iver Kaufman argues that the soul-searching and self-scourging typical of late Tudor Calvinism was reflected in the rhetoric of self-loathing then prevalent in sermons, sonnets, and soliloquys. Kaufman shows how this spiritual psychology informs major literary texts including Hamlet, The Faerie Queene, Donne's Holy Sonnets, and other works.

Download or read book Reformation Pastors written by William J. Black and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work examines Richard Baxter's understanding and practice of pastoral ministry from the perspective of his own stated concern for reformation and in the broader context of Edwardian, Elizabethan, and early Stuart pastoral ideals and practice. It investigates Baxter's major treatise on pastoral ministry, 'Gildas Salvianus, the Reformed Pastor' (1656), and explores the background of each aspect of his pastoral strategy. Far from being novel, Baxter's practice of pastoral ministry certainly reflects aspects of his puritan predecessors' practice, if not their rhetoric. Black argues, however, that the primary contours of Baxter's ministry look back, not to the puritan pastoral ideals and strategies dominant after the Elizabethan Settlement, but to the Edwardian reformation emphases of the exiled Strasbourg reformer Martin Bucer. The book concludes by considering the impact of Baxter's pastoral legacy, both on the lives of individual pastors and on the subsequent discussion of puritan ministry.
Download or read book Practical Divinity written by Kenneth L. Parker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Greenham was one of the most important and respected figures among the Elizabethan clergy. His contemporaries described him as the founder of a previously unknown pastoral art: the cure of cases of conscience. Despite his fame in the Elizabethan period as a model pastor, pioneer in reformed casuistry, and founder of one of the first rectory seminaries, scholars have made little use of his life and works in their study of Elizabethan religious life. This study restores Richard Greenham to the central place he held in the development of Elizabethan Reformed parochial ministry. The monograph-length introduction includes a biography, an analysis of his pastoral style, and a study of his approach to curing cases of conscience. The transcription of Rylands English Manuscript 524, cross-referenced with the published editions of the sayings, offers a useful source to scholars who wish to study the collecting and ’framing’ process of the humanist pedagogical tradition. The selection of early published works includes Greenham’s (unfinished) catechism, treatises on the Sabbath and marriage, and advice on reading scripture and educating children.
