Christian in Complete Armour

Spiritual Warfare  by 
William Gurnall

The Christian in Complete Armour by Anglican minister William Gurnall is perhaps one of the most profound spiritual and biblical theology written from the English Puritan age. The world, according to the Apostle Paul, is at war. It is not a war by the modern man’s definition but a struggle of the spirit. Gurnall began to investigate Paul’s admonition in sermons and lectures that he published under this title.

These teachings became Gurnall’s legacy, influencing well over three centuries of Christians and earning acclaim from notable figures such as Richard Baxter, John Flaven, John Newton, Charles Spurgeon, and Jonathan Edwards.

Historical theologians and church historians, and anyone in the Christian faith, can be enlightened through this literature. It gives considerable information on the pre-critical puritan vision of the universe while also elucidating a theological and spiritual issue that modern people of His faith either disregard or take for granted.
