Outline: The author presents a major study of the key elements of John Owen's writings and his theology.

Examining Owen's theology from pneumatological, political and eschatological perspectives. The author highlights the trinitian structure of his theology and how his theological work informed his understanding of practical Christianity. With the current resurgence of interest in seventeeth-century Reformed theology amongst intellectual historians, and the burgeoning research in systematic theology, this book presents an invaluable study of a leading mind in the Reformation and the historical underpinnings for new systematic theology.
