Here Brown deals with three major Reformation attainments(anti-tolerationism, establishmentarianism and the obligations of lawful covenants as they biblically bind posterity) that Satan has always been especially concerned to overthrow -- in every major demonic move to open the floodgates of lawlessness, anarchy and misrule. Fletcher, in the preface to the 1797 edition, relates this truth as it comes to bear on various religious professors, stating,

Macfarlane called Brown "perhaps the most remarkable divine that our country has produced" (cited in Johnston, Treasury of the Scottish Covenant, p. 485).

A Compendious History of the Church of Scotland (1784)
Contains "an account of the most material transactions, since the introduction of Christianity to the present time." 368 pages.

In seven books. Book 1: Of the standard of all religion, the law of nature, in its foundation and contents; the insufficiency of the light of nature to render a man truly virtuous and happy; the possibility, desirableness, necessity, propriety, reasonableness, credibility, divine authority, properties, and parts of that revelation which is contained in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments. Book 2: Of God, the Author, Object, and end of all religion, in His perfections, persons, purposes, and works. Book 3: Of the bonds of religious connection between God and man, the covenants of works and grace, in their origin, parties, parts and administrations in time and through eternity. Book 4: Of Christ, the Mediator of the covenant of grace, in His person, offices, and states. Book 5: Of the blessings of the covenant of grace, effectual calling, justification, adoption, sanctification, spiritual comfort, eternal glory. Book 7: Of the dispensation of the covenant of Grace by means of the law, the gospel, and ordinances thereof. Book 8: Of the new covenant society or church, in her constitution, members, offices, and government. A new edition carefully revised and improved with the author's last additions and corrections, 600 pages. This book has recently been published under the title:The Systematic Theology of John Brown of Haddington.

Two volumes in one. Over 750 pages.

The author has taken great care to correct, enlarge, and improve this editionof his catechism, particularly by adding a great number of Scripture texts in order to more clearly elucidate and confirm different points of doctrine and practice. 356 pages.

The importance of this book is noted in Brown's first sentence to the preface, "To peruse history as a Christian, is to view every event as the work of God; -- As a practical verification of the doctrines, promises, threatenings, or predictions of his word; -- and as an excitement to faith in, gratitude towards, and conformity to him, as our God and Redeemer." A fine set by one of the giants of the Reformed faith! 760 pages.

"The most luminous and weighty appeal on the subject, one in the highest degree deserving the study of every minister, and of every candidate for the sacred office," writes Aydelott, in the preface.

Contains a harmony and history of the Scripture prophecies concerning: Adam, Noah, and their families; the Canaanites; Egyptians; Philistines; Ethiopians; Edomites and Amalekites; Moabites and Amonites; Syrians; Assyrians; Chaldeans; Medes and Persians; Greeks; Romans; Ishmaelites, etc.; Scythians, Tartars, Turks; the Lord Jesus Christ; theRomish Antichrist; Israelites, Jews; and the New Testament Church. The final pages give a brief chronology of noted events from the creation (about 6000 years ago according to Brown) to the author's day.

This book, Brown notes, taken together with his Sacred Topology; or A Brief View of the Figures and Explication of the Metaphors Contained in Scripture, "form a kind of systematic explication of the whole Old and New Testament."

It is also interesting to note that Brown could read and translate in 10 different languages, being entirely self-taught, though his language studies "were subordinate to his favourite study of divinity, in which he became eminently skilled, as well as in history, both ecclesiastical and civil" (Darling,Cyclopaedia Bibliographica, p. 451). 411 pages.

Contains: 1. Memoirs of his Life; 2. Letters to his Friends; 3. Religious Tracts; 4. Advices to his Children; 5. An Account of Some of his Dying Sayings; 6. Dying Advices to his Congregation; and 7. An Address to Students of Divinity.

This is the Psalter (less Brown's notes, which were added later) mandated, approved and used (for public and private worship) by the Westminster Assembly and all those who covenanted to uphold the Biblical Reformation that these Divines proclaimed. The text of the Scottish Metrical Psalmswas authorized by the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland in 1650. The notes added by Brown are suitable for explaining the Psalm before singing and are a great aid to understanding and worship (whether public, family or private).This is a primary source document of Reformation; not to be missed by those serious about the Reformed faith -- and worshipping God in spirit and in truth.There are few things in life as pleasing and enjoyable as communing with Christ through the singing of His Psalms!

This book of 320 pages covers the life of one of the most important Scottish Presbyterian ministers of the eighteenth century, John Brown of Haddington.

"Considered to be the best account in a small compass of the Marrow controversy," stated Cairns (cf. Johnston, Treasury of the Scottish Covenant, p. 486). Topics which were disputed during this controversy include God's sovereignty and human responsibility in salvation and sanctification, the nature of the Gospel, the free offer of the Gospel, covenant theology, assurance, the atonement, the place of the law in the life of the believer and much more.
