"For who in the heaven can be compared unto the Lord? Who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the Lord?"- Psalm 89:6 From the psalmist's assertion that no one in heaven or earth is like God, George Swinnock derives his principal doctrine-namely, God is incomparable. Throughout The Blessed and Boundless God, he proves his doctrine by demonstrating God's incomparableness in His being, attributes, works, and words. Swinnock is a pastor-theologian who views theology as the means by which we grow in acquaintance with God and, consequently, in godliness. Therefore, he carefully applies his doctrine by demonstrating how God's incomparableness informs, counsels, and comforts us. Read this book prayerfully, thoughtfully, and expectantly, keeping in mind Swinnock's simple conviction that "when we take the incomparable God as our God, we are incomparably blessed."

Incomparably Blessed Series Description Interest in the Puritans continues to grow, but many people find reading these giants of the faith a bit unnerving. The Puritan Treasures for Today Series seeks to overcome that barrier by presenting Puritan books that are convenient in size and unintimidating in length. Each book is carefully edited with modern readers in mind, smoothing out difficult language of a bygone era while retaining the meaning of the original authors. Books for the series are thoughtfully selected to provide some of the best counsel on important subjects that people continue to wrestle with today. Author George Swinnock (1627-1673) was an English Puritan known for his vivid illustrations of biblical truth. His complete works have been reprinted in five volumes by Banner of Truth Trust. Endorsement "This book, by Puritan George Swinnock, is precisely what is needed in order to introduce God's people to the blessed and boundless God. I cannot wait to share this work with my own flock." - Mark Jones, minister of Faith Presbyterian Church, Vancouver, British Columbia, and coauthor of A Puritan Theology
