Review: This book contains a staggering amount of information. Baxter begins by leading the person to Christ, and then he teaches him/her how to be an established and strong Christian. Further topics cover how one may profitably use the Sacraments, conduct family worship, educate children, engage in controversy, go to law. There is also a host of questions on matter relating to the church; how to know the true church, what makes a church true, is the Roman Catholic church a true church, etc. Baxter places heavy emphasis on training the mind in sound doctrine. He also recommends the use of catechisms. Perhaps not a book that you would read straight through, but one that you could certainly consult with great benefit. Far superior to anything written today. Delightful reading.
