C. H. Spurgeon said of Richard Sibbes, 'He scatters pearls and diamonds with both hands', and the same could be said of another well-known Puritan: John Flavel. This little book is full of thought-provoking quotations drawn from Flavel's writings. Most focus on Jesus Christ, but they also include topics such as providence, conversion, suffering, heaven, and glory.
John Flavel
Flavel was an English Puritan who became a non-conformist after the 'Great Ejection' of 1662. It was 10 years before he was licenced to preach again, and then only in his own home. His writings, when collected in the 19th century, filled 6 volumes. Flavel's writings are known for their practical nature. He was instrumental in promoting the 'Happy Union' of Presbyterians and Congregationalists.
