The Name in Heaven, and the Power of Grace (Sermons)

Name: The Name in Heaven, and the Power of Grace (Sermons)
Author: Matthew Mead

Matthew Mead (1629–1699) was an English Nonconformist minister. A fellow of King's College, Cambridge, he was ejected in 1662 and later became pastor of an Independent congregation at Stepney in London, preaching to large crowds. His best-known work, The Almost Christian Discovered, examines how far a person may go in outward religion yet fall short of saving grace; several other of his sermon volumes appear in our library.

About this book

A volume of sermons by Matthew Mead, the seventeenth-century Puritan preacher, published after his death in 1699. Its title joins two themes dear to Mead's ministry: the believer's name written in heaven, and the power of grace to change and keep the soul. The sermons combine careful doctrine with the close, searching application typical of Puritan preaching.
