Best Eternity and Time

Time is transitory presence in contrast to eternity which is abiding presence. Since time presently coexists with eternity, man who is a creature of time has difficulty differentiating between them. Man’s short time on earth bears a never ending relationship to eternity.

Woman—Man’s Completion

With the degeneration of God’s first institution, the home, society in general degenerates accordingly. The greatest contributor to a deteriorating society is the departure from God’s teaching concerning the home. This study takes us through the opening chapters of Genesis and traces the role of men and women in the home through the Bible. God’s original teaching on any subject must never be ignored. Therefore, man and woman in the institution of marriage for life was and is God’s standard. from https://webbmt.org/

“The Works of Richard Greenham, Volume 3: Containing Seventeen Sermons,” presents a collection of profoundly helpful sermons by Richard Greenham, a significant figure in the Elizabethan Church. This volume encapsulates Greenham’s dedication to preaching “Christ crucified” to his rural congregation, aligning with his pastoral identity of sincerely delivering God’s word for the glory of God and the salvation of others. The sermons tackle various spiritual and moral topics, ranging from the nuances of Christian living to deep theological reflections.

Each sermon is a testament to Greenham’s skill as a spiritual guide, offering insights into critical aspects of Christian faith and practice. Topics include the dangers of quenching the Spirit, the pitfalls of murmuring, the nature of zeal, the value of a good name, and the importance of humility. Greenham also addresses practical issues such as the good education of children and the significance of repentance and true sorrow for sin. In a series of sermons on “The Heavenly Purchase,” he considers complex theological discussions, while other sermons focus on Christian warfare, fleeing ill company, idolatry, swearing, and the mutual duties between ministers and their congregations. He also explores the confession of sins and the effects of Christ’s cross in two parts.

Greenham’s approach is both pastoral and theological, aimed at guiding and nurturing his congregation’s spiritual growth. His sermons are rich in scriptural references and practical applications, emphasizing the transformative power of God’s word in daily life. This volume serves as a valuable resource for understanding Puritan theology and pastoral care, and its timeless teachings continue to resonate with readers seeking spiritual depth and guidance.

Containing Several Treatises

Richard Greenham, active during the late 16th century, is remembered primarily for his significant contributions to Puritan pastoral ministry and counseling. Greenham’s counseling and pastoral work significantly influenced Puritan piety. He is often credited with shaping the pastoral care approach within the Puritan movement, emphasizing personal piety, the importance of scripture, and the need for a personal, heartfelt relationship with God. Despite working in a relatively obscure parish, Greenham’s influence extended far beyond his immediate surroundings. His legacy lived on in the Puritan movement, particularly in how pastors approached the care of their congregations. He was a forerunner in creating a model of pastoral ministry that deeply influenced subsequent generations of church leaders, both in England and abroad.

The Works of Richard Greenham Volume 2: Containing Several Treatises’ is a profound collection that encapsulates the spiritual and theological essence of one of the Elizabethan Church’s most pivotal figures, Richard Greenham (c.1540/45–1594). Revered as the architect of Puritan pastoral piety, Greenham’s influence extended far beyond his tenure at the rural parish of Dry Drayton, near Cambridge. His deep understanding of Protestant piety and dedication to pastoral counseling made him a beacon of hope and guidance in a time of religious turmoil.

This volume presents a meticulously curated selection of Greenham’s sermons and treatises, reflective of his immense skill as a spiritual guide and pastoral counselor. His works were renowned for bringing solace and comfort to those “groaned under spiritual afflictions and temptations,” a testament to his empathetic and knowledgeable approach to ministry.
