BOOK RESUME: The Right Method for a Settled Peace of Conscience and Spiritual Comfort is a masterpiece of Casmistry or spiritual counselling, specifically designed to assist those struggling with religious melancholy and the distempers of the soul.

This edition, though commencing at signature A5, contains the core of Baxters influential advice on self-examination, the dangers of over-scrupulosity, and the practical application of the Gospel to a troubled mind. AUTHOR: Richard Baxter (1615-1691) was a titan of English Puritanism and one of the most prolific and influential Nonconformist theologians of the 17th century. A self-taught scholar of immense intellect, he served as a chaplain in the Parliamentary army during the English Civil War before settling as a minister in Kidderminster, where his transformative 'reformed pastorate' became a model for Protestant ministry.
