After being forced from his pulpit with some two thousand other Puritan ministers in the Great Ejection of 1660, he continued his writing ministry, authoring more than 140 books.

Book excerpt: A Hopeful Puritan Perspective on Suffering and Death In the throes of a long illness and confronting the possibility of death, 17th-century theologian Richard Baxter found comfort in the reality of heaven that awaits believers of Christ. During his recovery, Baxter wrote about the afterlife in what would become his best-selling book. The Saints' Everlasting Rest meditates on what Scripture reveals about heaven, helping believers live an abundant, God-honoring life in anticipation of eternal rest. Baxter encourages readers not to become distracted or discouraged by the temporal as he refocuses their minds on the eternal. Confronting difficult topics including sin, suffering, and fear of death, he also emphasizes God's sufficient grace and how the promise of heaven enriches life on earth.

Book excerpt: Little thought is given these days to Heaven. What is given is often fanciful and fictitious. But the Bible has so much to say about the destiny of the Believer! In 1645, a pastor named Richard Baxter was told he had but six months to live. Alone and with nothing but his Bible, that faithful and godly man embarked upon a journey, seeking to discover all that he could about Heaven. While reprieved from death's pursuit for another thirty years, Richard's narrow escape produced a remarkable book: THE SAINTS' EVERLASTING REST. That book told the Bible's Truth about Jesus, the Gospel, and Heaven.John Gillespie has rewritten Richard Baxter's wonderful book for a new generation. THE BELIEVERS' ETERNAL REST is an interpretation, a paraphrase, of Baxter's original. The author has sought to be true to the original theology and spirit of Richard Baxter, while presenting his heart and discoveries in a new voice.In this book myths will be dispelled, truths will be discovered, and your heart for Jesus will be moved Heavenward.Welcome to a journey of more than a life-time.

Book excerpt: What does walking with God truly mean? What does it look like in the life of an ordinary Christian? Puritan writer Richard Baxter provides an answer for us that is just as powerful and enlightening in our modern era as it was in the 17th century when he penned his words. Baxter, who himself was persecuted and spent time in prison for his beliefs, was intimately familiar with the great challenge of walking with God in a tumultuous world and in the midst of a generation that railed against God. Inscribed at the base of Baxter’s statue in Kidderminster, England are these words: “In a stormy and divided age he advocated unity and comprehension, pointing the way to ‘the eternal.’” Come learn from this great man of faith who walked with God.
