Where it came from
Published in 1670, this treatise emerged during a period of intense religious and political volatility in Restoration-era England. Richard Baxter, a prominent Puritan theologian, wrote this work to address the fractures within the Church of England following the Great Ejection of 1662. His primary goal was to provide pastoral guidance to laity who were tempted to withdraw from established congregations due to disagreements over non-essential ecclesiastical practices, advocating for a moderate path of unity and peace.
The physical edition printed for Nevil Symmons reflects the common trade practices of the late 17th-century London book market. The design prioritizes utilitarian clarity, typical of religious polemical works of the era, which were intended for wide distribution among the literate public. While Baxter's broader writings were highly influential among Nonconformists, this specific work served as an essential intellectual response to the sectarianism that threatened the stability of the reformed church at the time.
