Heaven Taken By Storm

Many today believe that the Christian life is rather easy to both obtain and live. But the Puritans saw it as warfare- as wrestling- as “holy violence-” to use their term. The Apostle Paul spoke of beating his own body into subjection. And this holy violence is to be brought not only against one’s self- but against Satan- the world- and heaven too. And in this confrontation- we must use the weapons God has given us—reading the Word- hearing the Word- prayer- meditation- self-examination- and the due observance of the Lord’s Day. The writings of Thomas Watson- replete with sound doctrine- practical wisdom- and heart-searching application- need no introduction to readers of the Puritans. His profound spirituality- terse style- gripping remarks- practical illustrations- and beauty of expression make him one of the most irresistible- quotable- and devotional of all the Puritans. Heaven Taken By Storm is a precious little volume of practical Christian living.
