Book Description
According to Dr Mark Dever, ‘This little booklet is a devotional classic.’ It contains a ‘gospel map’ that reveals the way to the ‘riches of the covenant.’ With great skill and an almost encyclopaedic knowledge of Scripture, Joseph Alleine (c.1634–68) conveys the ‘exceeding great and precious promises’ of God, and sets them forth in such a way as to bring encouragement and delight to the Christian believer. He demonstrates how, by embracing these promises, the believer is enabled to overcome all the assaults of unbelief. ‘Faith,’ he says, ‘makes its claim to all the benefits of the covenant, and stirs up the soul to joy and thankfulness.’ It is little wonder to learn that Alleine’s treatment of God’s precious promises has proved an effective balm to countless weary souls for more than 300 years.

INCREDIBLE!!! I’ll read it again and again for strength, comfort, courage and joy!! For it’s made up of Scripture promises stated in such a way as no other promise book I’ve read before. What power! What pleasure! What peace this book gives. What it lacks in length it makes up for in love. This book glorifies all of who God is for us in Christ Jesus! If you’re able, purchase many and give them away.

This is SUCH a rich gem of encouragement (as many over 300yrs+ have experienced). It packs joyous tear-jerkers of promise throughout it’s 64 pages. It’s now in my monthly, (if not weekly) reading rotation. Extra exciting to learn that Alleine sat under the tutelage of Owen & Goodwin at Oxford! I am so thankful for Banner & the means by which this came to me: and The Gracious Father God by whom it was ordained ♰
