Publisher's Synopsis
This work of Tobias is reproduced in 3 volumes with the first containing the first 14 sermons published after his death in 1643. Volume 2 containing sermons 15-32 and volume 3 containing sermons 33-52. published between 1643 and 1646. These are the complete works of Tobias Crisp D.D. Tobias Crisp clearly taught that salvation was by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ alone. He taught the doctrines of grace in which Christ died for the elect and his righteousness was imputed to all that believe. In the early Church there were men who taught the Law of Moses must be kept in order to be saved but the Apostle Paul stepped in to show clearly that the Gospel of Jesus Christ was the rule not life for the believer and not the Law of Moses. The apostle was charged with being an Antinomian and so too has Tobias Crisp. He was not as will seen in his sermon 51 The Use of The Law. However there have been conflicts among those who advanced that the Law of Moses is the rule of life for the believer and as such have advanced that certain days are to be kept holy and they seek to bind others to their practice. Difficulties like these are expressed in the various articles of religion among Particular Baptists and the issue of the rule of the Mosaic Law is touched upon in our publication Reflection on the Sabbath, as listed at the back of this book in which references are made to Jhn Calvin, John Bunyan, John Gill, Joseph Philpott, Frank Gosden and others.
