The Way of the Spirit in Bringing Souls to Christ by Thomas Allen
Edited by Dr. Don Kistler
Hardcover • 216 pages • Smyth sewn • Acid-free paper
Most Christians know the Father calls and the Son died to save—but how does the Holy Spirit bring us to Christ? Puritan preacher Thomas Allen walks us through the Spirit’s role in conversion: convicting of sin, revealing Christ’s righteousness, and drawing sinners through gospel preaching.
Published for the first time since 1676, this ten-sermon volume has been edited for today’s reader. Allen helps us see the Spirit’s patient, powerful work in the salvation of souls. Bound in durable hardcover and Smyth-sewn binding, this edition is crafted to edify and last.

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.

Quote from the book
Brethren, was there anything, or could there be anything that was nearer or dearer to the hearts of the disciples than the presence of Christ? ...They loved Christ more than their very lives, and yet now you see what Christ said to them. ...“I tell you the truth, it is expedient for you that I go away; it is expedient for you that I leave you, though I am so near and dear unto you.” So here is the point grounded upon these words: It is a most certain truth that it is expedient for the disciples and servants of Christ sometimes to be deprived of those comforts that seem to be nearest and dearest to them in this world. It is expedient for them. The word that is here translated expedient signifies “most profitable, more profitable for you, or better for you." (p.7-8)
