Body Of Practical Divinity

Body of Practical Divinity

by Thomas Watson

Thomas Watson's Body of Practical Divinity is a collection of 176 sermons on the Assembly's Catechism, a summary of Christian doctrine. It was published posthumously in 1692 and has since become a classic work of Puritan theology. Watson's sermons are known for their clear exposition of Scripture, their practical application, and their warm, devotional tone. He covers a wide range of topics, including the nature of God, the person and work of Christ, the role of the Holy Spirit, the Christian life, and the final judgment. Watson's work is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to grow in their understanding of Christian doctrine and to live a life of faith.
