About This Item
1796 PURITAN John Flavel Token for Mourners AMERICAN Bible Devotional on Death
John Flavel was a 17th-century Presbyterian and Puritan author. He has written numerous important books, many of which include his full sermons. Flavel was a proponent of Monergism (the concept of salvation without the individual's own belief), which appeared throughout Flavel's works. One such work was 'Token for Mourners'. In this book, Flavel offers direction on spiritual and emotional healing following death based on how Mary, the mother of Jesus, dealt with the loss of her son.
This particular edition is noteworthy for being an early American edition. Newbury, Vermont was not considered a major hub of American printing; as such, this work is considered to be quite rare and valuable.
