Description

Puritan practical divinity was a genre of pastoral care that developed in the sixteenth century on the heels of the Protestant Reformation. While it possessed many similarities to medieval spirituality, it had unique qualities that set it apart. Practical divinity forerunners such as William Perkins, Richard Greenham, and Richard Rogers specialized in theologically rooted teachings that sought to comfort people with afflicted consciences. William Gouge (1575-1653) followed their trajectory and became a prominent pastor in Blackfriars, London. Gouge leveraged his practical divinity to console, rebuke, warn, and encourage Christians and non-Christians alike. Some historians, such as R. T. Kendall and Basil Hall, contend that many Puritans, most evidently in their practical divinity, departed from John Calvin's teachings on Jesus' atoning work, faith, and ultimately his doctrine of assurance of salvation. Others such as Richard Muller, Joel Beeke, and Paul Helm disagree with their proposal. In this dissertation, William Gouge is set forth as one who specialized in practical divinity and held on to a Protestant understanding of assurance of salvation that was primarily grounded on the promises of God in the gospel. This dissertation explores Gouge's practical divinity, understanding of saving faith and theology of assurance. It also relates these theological teachings to the important pastoral topics of spiritual warfare, prayer, Christian home, suffering and death, which are prominent in his writings.
