William Spurstowe (1605Ð1666) was an English, Puritan minister, theologian, and member of the Westminster Assembly.
This work is one of the most valuable Puritan works ever written on any subject. It comprises the biblical teaching on the promises of God. It is, by far, the best treatment outside of Scripture on the subject. Spurstowe uses 2 Peter 1:4 as his main text, ÒWhereby are given to us exceeding great and precious promisesÉÓ Every Christian is to stand firm on the promises that God has laid down in Scripture concerning his covenant and his Son Jesus Christ. There is a right use and a wrong use to these promises and Spurstowe, in a gentle and amiable style leads us through them all in order to enrich our faith in Christ, and cause us to esteem the value of Christ and His grace greater than anything else in the world.
