"The Works Of Thomas Shepard: First Pastor Of The First Church, Cambridge, Mass. : With A Memoir Of His Life And Character" by Thomas Shepard. This Puritan collection gathers densely argued, scripture-driven sermons and a memoir to guide believers in saving faith and the believer’s journey from humble conviction to the benefits of grace. It presents a Christ-centered exposition in which humiliation prepares the soul for trust, faith is the Spirit-enabled whole-soul coming to Christ, and the end of faith is union with Christ and all His benefits. The treatise ground faith in the gospel call, warns against counterfeit faith grounded in feelings or external duties, and emphasizes justification, reconciliation, and adoption as works of Christ’s righteousness imputed to the believer. Grounded in extensive scriptural warrant, the work also situates Shepard’s life within the 17th-century Puritan struggle over worship, church order, and emigration to New England, where his ministry sought a renewed, gospel-centered church order. The volume thus combines doctrinal exposition with pastoral exhortation and a memoir of a significant Puritan pastor and preacher.
