This
edition of John Woolton’s The Christian Manual was reprinted by the
Parker Society to demonstrate the application of Reformation principles “to the
practical duties of individual and social life.” Woolton’s treatise on
practical Christian living clearly reflects Calvinist influences as he exhorts
Christians to, “declare to the world their faith by their deeds, their words by
their works, and their profession by their conversation.”
John
Woolton
(1553–1593) was bishop of Exeter from 1578 until his death.
