1636 Grounds of Divinitie Elnathan Parr EARLY PURITAN Devotional Calvinism

 

A rare and rather obscure 17^th-century book by Elnathan Parr (d. 1632). Parr seeks to expose secrets and mysteries of the Christian religion. This devotional includes explanations on how to study scripture, the importance of clear doctrine, and more. Controversial topics were also quite present. Parr writes against those claiming there to be more than one God, as well as warning against aspects of Calvinism. Finally, Parr warns against various sinful desires, notably sexual immorality and drunkenness.
