Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Thoughts for the Afflicted: With an Appendix of Selections From Various Authors
The purpose of God in our afflictions is to be deeply considered; for the accomplishment of his design in them, or the failure Of it, and the consequent waste of his discipline, is that which stamps them for eternity. God has therefore been at great pains in his Word to make the meaning Of them plain, and to instruct us as to the way in which we may certainly secure the hen efit Of them.
