Omschrijving

Stephen Charnock's The Existence and Attributes of God is a landmark of Puritan theology, uniting metaphysical rigor with pastoral aim. Cast as extended sermons, it first vindicates God's being against atheism and practical irreligion, then unfolds the divine perfections—aseity, simplicity, immutability, eternity, omnipresence, wisdom, power, holiness, goodness, and mercy. Saturated with Scripture yet conversant with scholastic distinctions, the work inhabits the Reformed orthodox tradition. Composed in the shadow of Restoration skepticism, it answers materialist and deist currents without forfeiting a doxological, worship-inducing tone. Charnock (1628–1680), a Cambridge-educated Puritan divine, served as a chaplain in Ireland during the Interregnum and later ministered in London. Under the constraints of the Act of Uniformity, he refined these discourses among nonconformist congregations, wedding exact reasoning to experimental piety. Published posthumously in 1682 by friends from his manuscripts, the volume distills decades of study and cure-of-souls work. Scholars, pastors, and serious readers will find in these pages a demanding but clarifying school of God-centered thought. Read it to discipline the mind, warm the affections, and learn to live prayerfully coram Deo.
