One of the best things you can read on Assurance

Brooks' masterpiece on Assurance is a must-read for the Christian who is honestly "examining himself to know that he is a believer" (2 Cor.13v5). The book teaches that although assurance is not essential to salvation, it makes the Christian's walk here on earth much more comfortable - "Assurance is glory in the bud; it is the suburbs of paradise". The Christian who has the assurance of his salvation has "heaven on earth". Brooks calls on the reader to examine himself seriously to discern first that he has true saving faith in the Savior, then calls on him to ask probing questions about the evidence of salvation in his life; love to Christ, hatred of indwelling sin, etc.Brooks is an "easier" Puritan to read.

Heaven in Print

Thomas Brooks' works are among the best of Christian literature. While most of his books are out of print, we can be thankful that his great treatise, "Heaven on Earth" still remains. Rich in vivid language, Brooks spells out the wonders of the blessing of assurance (or acceptance with God). He blesses the reader by unfolding the glorious truths of Scripture- showing how one can obtain assurance, and how to enjoy it. In general, Brooks provides a handbook for a victorious Christian walk. His teachings are deep and practical. There is not a dull page in this book. Today, one searches through the chapters of modern Christian books for a gem to take with them. But this work, like many of the past, hold precious nuggets in every sentence. The devoted Christian will find this book an absolute treat. I did not want it to end.
