Sermons and Tracts from the Civil Wars (1646-1649) Synopsis

"The Complete Works of John Owen is a 40-volume work that brings together all of Owen's original theological writing, reformatted for modern readers. Volume 18, Sermons and Tracts from the Civil Wars (1646-1649), covers Owen's preaching to the Long Parliament and its Rump-including his most (in)famous sermon delivered the day after the regicide-as well as a thanksgiving sermon held in London on the occasion of the defeat of the Levellers. Two of these sermons were first published with appended treatises dealing with matters pertaining to the debates about the nature of the postwar church settlement, and these are also included. What is included in this volume is only a very limited selection of Owen's preaching between 1646 and 1649 and one that is restricted to sermons delivered on the national stage"--.
