John Owen and the Civil War Apocalypse (eBook, ePUB)

Preaching, Prophecy and Politics

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Using Owen's sermons from this period, this book studies how his apocalyptic interpretation of contemporary events led to him making public calls for radical societal change. It combines his theological lineage with the historical context in which he preaches, and so represents part of a new historical turn in Owen Studies.
