Excessively rare, the present work was written by sometime chaplain to Oliver Cromwell and doctrinal Puritan, Jeremiah White [1629-1707], but only published posthumously.
A fascinating work worked from the building blocks of classic Calvinist theology, i.e. predestination, election, and reprobation. But they are understood in such a way that that election, salvation, and sanctification of the elect benefit the non-elect and ultimately lead to the eternal happiness of all humanity. Of course, though built on classic Calvinist language, they have ceased to be so by any usual definition.
A work very much in the tradition of Gregory of Nyssa, etc.,
