Endorsement

“Whereas many worthy ministers have outlived their zeal, the vigor of their gifts, and their acceptance with the godly, this blessed man rather increased in all these to the last. . . His gifts were great, strong natural parts, a clear head, and a sound heart. . . His action in preaching was more than ordinary; yet was it all decent and taking in him.”
—Robert Traill (1642–1716), author of A Vindication of the Protestant Doctrine Concerning Justification

About the Author

William Guthrie (1620–1665) attended St. Andrews University and studied for the ministry under Samuel Rutherford. Guthrie was ordained in 1644, becoming the first pastor of the newly erected parish of Fenwick in Ayrshire. Though he received various calls from other congregations in Scotland, he declined them to continue laboring among his beloved congregation in Fenwick. Guthrie is best known for his valuable book on salvation and assurance, The Christian’s Great Interest.
