Publisher Review: While recent evangelical appropriation of the thought of John Owen is to be welcomed, it has tended on the whole only to pick up on those bits and pieces of his thought which suit the modern evangelical ethos. Thus, significant portions of his writings go unread or unused. One such area is that of the church and sacraments. This makes Payne's introduction an important contribution to the current field, highlighting as he does the importance of the sacraments to the life of the believer and to the life of the church as a whole. If evangelicalism is ever to move beyond a narrow focus on the individual experience to a more rounded, biblical piety, then the teaching of great theologians of the past on church and sacraments needs to be addressed. This monograph represents a most helpful addition to the growing literature in this field. " Carl R. Trueman, Westminster Theological Seminary. |
