"It was Goodwins joy to write about Christ, with whom he communed constantly, and the two items reprinted here are among his best treatments of the Saviour's love and service to us. Reformed Christology in the seventeenth century, as since, was subtle and deep, and Mark Jones' excellent analytical essay will be found helpful at this point." -J. I. Packer, Board of Governors' Professor of Theology, Regent College, Vancouver, Canada

"Thomas Goodwin was a man of prodigious learning, but he was also a man who loved the church of Jesus Christ because he loved his Saviour so much. With his pen in hand he tried his best to allow both his heart and mind to write about the person and work of Christ in such a way that was not only orthodox, but also useful for those he regularly preached to and those who would have the pleasure of reading his works." -Mark Jones
