A Soul Framed in Christ

Theology

“Bartoe’s work is a thoroughly researched and beautifully illuminating study of a seventeenth-century Puritan divine’s concept of ‘continuity in conformity,’ . . . which might also be called sanctification . . . . Well versed not only in classic Puritan and Reformed sources but in the scholastic tradition running back through Suarez, Aquinas, and Augustine to Aristotle, Charnock is anything but narrow in scope, offering many reasons for ecumenical interest.”
