1632 THOMAS TAYLOR. Works of Early Puritan on Repentance, The New Creation, and God in Nature!

A wonderful group of three early Puritan works by eminent divine, Thomas Taylor [1576-1632]. The son of a prominent supporter of the Dissenters and helped assist the fleeing Scottish divines during the persecution in that country, Thomas himself was an early disciple of the famed William Perkins. A young man of keen gifts, lively piety, and an active mind, he began preaching at 21 years of age and preached before Queen Elizabeth at just 25 years old. He was over and again silenced and censured for non-conformity, for preaching on the responsibility of the Crown to Christ rather than the other way around, and for supporting non-conformist causes. Spurgeon says of him that he was, and this is high praise indeed, "one of the richest in matter of all the Puritans."  Bound in a handsome little original vellum 12mo volume we have three choice works, each of great value in its own way. 1.
