‘If you are looking for a book to be your companion in the lifelong fight for joy and against sin…then I don’t have a better uninspired nomination for you than Precious Remedies.’ — LIGON DUNCAN

BOOK DESCRIPTION

‘Christ, the Scripture, your own hearts, and Satan’s devices, are the four prime things that should be first and most studied and searched…’

The detailed analysis of Scripture together with the malfunctions, diseases, and spiritual cares of members of the body of Christ found in Precious Remedies Against Satan’s Devicesis an outstanding example of Thomas Brooks’ deep knowledge and understanding. Many have benefited from his insights into gospel antidotes to the means Satan employs in unsettling God’s people.

Alexander Grosart, editor of the nineteenth-century edition of Brooks Works, records the words of a missionary who had become deeply perplexed by a situation in which she found herself:

‘I…turned to my closet for an hour, giving the time to prayer and to my dear little help-book ‘Precious Remedies Against Satan’s Devices’. In that time God taught me what to do, and strength was given for the day.’

Precious Remedies continues to be a ‘help-book’ to Christians today. Pastors will find its insights valuable in caring for Christ’s flock.
