Om denne e-bog

In an era when kingdoms tottered and consciences were imprisoned by ecclesiastical and political tyranny, A faithful Puritan minister, and Westminster Divine, Jeremiah Burroughs (1599–1646) stood as a light of godly humility, doctrinal precision, and unwavering commitment to the peace and purity of Christ’s church.

In this remarkable exposition of Isaiah 66:10–11, Burroughs masterfully calls believers to "rejoice with Jerusalem"—to find their joy in the flourishing of Christ's church, even amid suffering and conflict. He declares that true reformation is not accomplished by the might of man but by the Spirit of God, who brings forth divine mercy and justice in His perfect time. Burroughs reminds us that spiritual renewal, like birth itself, often comes with labor pains—but also with the triumphant assurance that God's purposes will be accomplished.

As a leading voice in the Westminster Assembly, Burroughs played a pivotal role in shaping the theological foundations of Reformed orthodoxy. Yet, his legacy is not only one of theological rigor but also of remarkable meekness—a refusal to let strife, bitterness, or factionalism overshadow the Gospel of peace. In these pages, his exhortations ring with clarity: the church must cling to the purity of God’s Word, reject worldly innovations, and trust in the sovereignty of God, who alone can "bring to the birth and give strength to bring forth."

Whether confronting persecution or pleading for peace, Burroughs’ message is as timely today as it was in the 17th century: God’s people must unite in truth, standing firm under the banner of Christ’s blood and rejoicing as they witness the unfolding of His promises.

Readers will find not only theological depth but also the rich encouragement of one who trusted the Lord amid the fiercest storms and found refuge in the unshakable hope of His salvation.
