The Glory of Christ by Thomas Allen

Edited by Don Kistler
Hardcover • Smyth sewn • Acid-free paper • Available early November

There is no more glorious theme for a Christian than the glory of Jesus Christ. The Old Testament points forward to Him. The New Testament testifies of Him. Even the last book of the Bible, Revelation, is “the testimony of Jesus Christ.”

In this Puritan treasure, Thomas Allen unfolds how God has exalted Christ and showcases the faith that truly unites a person to Him. Sinners are warned to flee to Him, and believers are encouraged to rest in Him.

Allen was described by his contemporaries as both a son of thunder and a son of consolation because he was a preacher who could thunder out the wrath of God against sin and then tenderly point weary souls to Christ as their only refuge. Both qualities are evident in this volume.

About the Author

Thomas Allen was a faithful Puritan pastor and one of many who fled England to find freedom for gospel ministry in the New World. He settled in Massachusetts in 1638, where he served as assistant minister in Charlestown for 11 years and was later appointed a minister of Harvard College. His work reveals a deep burden for souls to be truly awakened, not merely reformed. Though many of his writings were printed after his death, they continue to call modern readers to turn from sin, long for Christ, and rest in the hope of the gospel.
