Richard Baxter (1615-1691) was an English minister of the Puritan period who wrote extensively on pastoral and theological themes. His Reformed Pastor and Saints’ Everlasting Rest remain standard works even today.
The Dying Thoughts of Richard Baxter are personal reflections on Philippians 1:23 – For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart and to be with Christ, which is far better. Nearing the end of his life and ministry, Baxter gives expression to his own spiritual apprehensions and applies the counsel of Scripture to reason with himself, showing the vast superiority of heavenly blessings over what this world can offer.
Based on an abridgement made by Benjamin Fawcett in 1799, this edition has been completely re-typeset for issue as an eBook.
