The True Profession of the Gospel: Augustus Toplady

"Whilst the Calvinistic doctrines were the language of our pulpits as well as of our Articles, the Reformation made a swift and extensive progress. But ever since our Articles and our pulpits have been at variance, the Reformation has been at a stand.” Augustus Montague Toplady
 
At every Coronation for over three hundred years, British Monarchs have promised to maintain, “the true profession of the gospel... the Protestant Reformed religion.” At a time when many Evangelicals and Anglicans are questioning their theology and re-thinking their identity, it is more important than ever for us to remember this gospel of sovereign grace.
 
This book shows how God has used the Reformed gospel of ‘grace alone’ to revitalise churches riddled with immorality and flagging in meaning and purpose. With a focus on hymn-writer and theologian Augustus Toplady, it retells the story of Reformation and Revival for a new generation looking to draw strength from its roots.
