A Practical Exposition of the Lord's Prayer (With Active Table of Contents)
Description
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Thomas Manton was an English Puritan clergyman. Although Manton is little known now, in his day he was held in as much esteem as men like John Owen. He was best known for his skilled expository preaching, and was a favourite of John Charles Ryle, who championed his republication in the mid-19th century, and Charles Spurgeon. Of Manton, Ryle said he was "a man who could neither say, nor do, nor write anything without being observed." Spurgeon said his works contained “a mighty mountain of sound theology†and his sermons were “second to none†to his contemporaries. He went on to say, “Manton is not brilliant, but he is always clever; he is not oratorical, but he is powerful; he is not striking, but he is deep.â€
