Excerpt from An Exposition of the Ninth Chapter of the Epistle to the Romans: With the Banner of Justification Displayed Exposition, Mr. Goodwin speaks of the'infirmities of age as coming rapidly upon him, and of the trouble some importunity of some men in another way. He states that, in consequence Of these things, the drawing up of a second part of his book of Redemption was set back for a time; and he intimates that it was very doubtful whether he Should live to finish it: A foreboding which proved to be too true. The men of whom he speaks, whose importunity annoyed him, were the Baptists, and the Fifth Monarchy men. The former disturbed the peace Of his church, with their peculiar tenets; and the latter, who were fanatical Millenarians, attempted the subversion of all government, both civil and ecclesiastical. Both these classes of men drew him into public controversy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
