The Works of Thomas Shepard - Vol 2: The Parable of the Ten Virgins

Originally published in 1659, this book calls attention to true assurance of salvation. Shepard warns against antinomianism as he carefully distinguishes believers from non-believers. Following Matthew 25:(1-13), the first part of this work details the visible church's preparation to meet Christ at His return, while the second half explains His coming to meet her.
