Samuel Ward is a Puritan unknown to most readers of English theology today. Most of his writings are not available; the ones which have been collected in this volume have not been reprinted for almost two hundred years. Samuel Ward's works contained in this volume are his most valuable, such as "A Coal from the Altar: the Holy fire of Zeal," "Balm from Gilead to Recover Conscience," and "Jethro's Justice of the Peace," as well as his treatises on the "Life of Faith," and the "Life of Faith in Death," among others. Ward's regular purpose in preaching was to exalt the Lord Jesus Christ as high as possible, to cast down man's pride, to expose the sinfulness of sin, to spread out broadly and fully the remedy of the gospel, to awaken the unconverted sinner and alarm him, to build up the true Christian and comfort him in Christ. This work is newly typeset for easy reading.
