Publisher's summary

Put on your armor - it’s time to fight. We are in a spiritual war, William Gurnall reminds us, and “the Christian’s safety lies in resisting. All the armour provided is to defend the Christian fighting, none to secure him flying; stand, and the day is ours; fly or yield, and all is lost".

This hard-hitting volume is packed with biblical wisdom for day-to-day Christian living, as helpful today as it was when first published nearly 400 years ago. Although history left us little knowledge of William Gurnall’s life, it preserved this book - a legacy that has encouraged many generations of saints to fight sin, love Christ, and live holy and faithful lives as Christians who have clothed themselves in the complete armor of God.

William Gurnall (1616 - 79) was born in King’s Lynn, Norfolk, and received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Cambridge University. From 1644 until his death, he served as rector of St. Peter and St. Paul’s Church, Lavenham, Suffolk.

So good

If you can’t tackle the book in its entirety, read through this book of excerpts to take it in smaller bites. Absolutely worth it.

wow.

I really loved this book. There are so many quotables in this! I did speed it up a bit because I found myself getting distracted by my thoughts inspired by things that were said. very thought provoking book. it challenges you to really think. I will definitely be listening to it again and possibly even taking notes next time.

Condensed wisdom

It has so much in a few sentences tuntil it says that I need to buy the printed copy. But the audio is worth it too.

Wisdom

An incredible collection of profound thoughts articulated with clarity. Ideal listening for the Christian seeking the armor of God and for a warrior fighting the modern cultural war. Brilliant.

The truth of GOD’s word and work.

I wanted to listen to this book after hearing Pastor Jack Hibbs recommended it. Thank you Pastor Hibbs. I’ve been believing I was walking in step with Jesus, not so! I’ve picked up so much teaching and discipline that will strengthen my walk with my Savior.

Up to date and relevant

We tend to think ourselves very sophisticated and wise. A quick listen to this 350+ year old work will quickly inform you that not only has man not changed over time but these sins, problems, foibles and the solutions have been known since antiquity. If anything, he's more wise and sophisticated than our modern age.
