Description:
1692 Puritan & Huguenot Liturgy John Quick Gallia Reformata French Protestants

John Quick was a 17th-century Anglican preacher known for his Puritan sermons and association with French Huguenot refugees. Many of these refugees fled from French rule and landed in England near Plymouth. It was from these events that Quick wrote 'Synodicon in Gallia Reformata' – a collection of liturgical texts used by the Huguenots in late 17th-century England.

This volume from the 1692 first edition features an impressive double frontispiece: a portrait of Quick and a full-page view of the Synod gathering.

Description:
1673 Saint Augustine of Hippo Letters Grace & Free Will Predestination Latin
Augustine of Hippo was a 5th-century early Christian church philosopher and theologian. While most known for his work 'City of God', he also wrote many other treatises on aspects of the Christian faith. His stance on free will vs predestination and fatalism were supported by and still is supported by, the Catholic Church, as his teachings on free will are consistent with modern doctrine.

This 1673 Latin edition was collected and published by Lambert Marchant who included the following works:
·
Concilium Arausicanum II
·
Saint Prosper's letters to Augustine
o Much of which covers the gothic invasion of Gaul
·
On Grace and Free Will
·
On Rebuke and Grace
·
Gift of Perseverance / Predestination of Saints
·
Various letters

1723 1ed Sermons of Ofspring Blackall Bible Commentary on Sermon on Mount Exeter

Ofspring Blackall was a 17th-century English bishop whose works stirred much controversy throughout his career. However, many of his sermons proved non-controversial at all including his sermons found in his complete works.

Shortly after Blackall died, his complete sermons were edited published in London in 1723 by William Dawes. These sermons, which mostly consist of commentary on Jesus's 'Sermon on the Mount' provide context to each of the portions of Christ's famous sermon. It also contains an interesting sermon on the 'Manner of Keeping Christmas'.

This 1723 first edition contains two, complete folios! An impressive collection of 18th-century sermons!
