About this title

Synopsis

Religious Cases Of Conscience: Answered In An Evangelical Manner, At The Casuistical Lecture, In Little St. Helen's, Bishopsgate-Street, compiled by S. Pike and S. Hayward, is an eighteenth-century Puritan devotional handbook presented as a series of Cases of Conscience in a Q&A and pastoral lecturing style. The work explores how saving faith is received and evidenced, the Spirit's witness as a ground of assurance, and the ongoing interplay of grace, faith, and holiness. It treats topics such as justification by faith, assurance, sanctification, the Lord's Supper, and means of grace (prayer, Scripture reading, worship, and fellowship), and discusses discernment between true grace and presumption. Through cases (Case I through XXV) and longer meditations, it guides self-examination, the regulation of private worship, and the practice of churchly duties within a Reformed framework. The text aims to nurture humility, perseverance, and Christ-centered living, emphasizing the inseparability of faith and works under grace.
