The True Christian’s Love of the Unseen Christ: A Discourse Chiefly Tending to Excite and Promote the Decaying Love of Christ in the Hearts of Christians

Thomas VincentApril 4, 2019

Digital Puritan Press

“Faith without love to Christ is a dead faith.” So states Thomas Vincent in The True Christian’s Love of the Unseen Christ—a book whose sole stated purpose is to help the reader obtain love for Christ in truth and strength. Christian, if your love for Christ has gone cold, if you have lost your passion for serving Christ, this book will be a spark for rekindling that love again, and a bellows for fanning it into flame.

Originally published in 1677, this classic treatise has been meticulously edited to benefit a new generation of Christian readers. Archaic language has been gently modernized, and helpful footnotes have been added to aid the reader. This edition includes a biographical preface and review questions designed to facilitate group discussion or personal reflection.

About the author

Thomas Vincent (1634–1678) was a Puritan pastor who was deprived of his pulpit when the Act of Uniformity was decreed in 1662. He continued to minister to young people alongside Thomas Doolittle at a boarding school in Bunhill Fields. When the Great Plague ravaged London in 1665 and everyone who could afford to leave the city was fleeing, Vincent instead chose to remain, so that he could minister to the sick and suffering.

The Way to Escape the Horrible and Eternal Burnings of Hell Through Jesus Christ

Thomas Vincent

This book is a combination of Thomas Vincent’s last two known works, one of which is a sermon entitled, “The Only Deliverer from Wrath to Come,” and the other is a book called, “Words Whereby We May be Saved.” The sermon covers 1 Thessalonians 1:10, “Even Jesus which delivered us from the wrath to come.” Vincent demonstrates that 1) there is evidence of this second coming of Jesus Christ, and, 2) the ground of their hope and comfortable expectation and waiting for this coming in the text is because Jesus had delivered them from the wrath to come. The second work is a book on salvation covering 1. Words to try people whether they are in a state of salvation. 2. Words to move people to endeavor after salvation. And, 3. Words to guide people in the way to attain salvation.

Also included are Vincent’s sayings which were a collection of quotations taken out of his writings published separately after his death.
