Stephen Charnock was a highly regarded seventeenth-century English Puritan whose writings have continued to shape the church for centuries, known for a sophisticated treatment of the existence and attributes of God, the person and work of Christ, and the doctrine of sin.

This two-volume set, edited by Mark Jones, gives his Existence and Attributes of God updated and unabridged - the language modernized without cutting the argument, which is what every previous abridgement did. The discourses on God's eternity, immutability, holiness and wisdom are among the most substantial writing on the subject in English.
