Matthew Mead's The Christian's Duty to Walk Wisely is a practical exploration of the believer's spiritual journey, addressing the holy command for Christians to navigate life with wisdom and grace. Anchored in Ephesians 5:15-16 and Psalm 131, this work challenges and encourages readers to live with godly discernment and contentment in the midst of temptations. The first sermon, Walk Wisely, explores the Christian's responsibility to live circumspectly in a fallen world fraught with temptation and evil. Mead exhorts believers to navigate life with spiritual wisdom-avoiding folly, redeeming the time, and relying wholly on the grace of Christ. Through rich biblical exposition and practical application, he addresses the nature of temptation, the dangers of self-confidence, and the necessity of prayer, faith, and reliance on Scripture. With clarity and pastoral insight, Mead equips Christians to triumph over sin and stand firm against Satan's schemes. The second sermon, The Power of Grace, takes its cue from David's confession in Psalm 131: Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother. Mead explores the heart-transforming work of grace that weans the believer from worldly affections and fosters a spirit of humility, contentment, and childlike dependence on God. He examines the believer's resemblance to a weaned child-helpless yet trusting, detached from earthly vanities yet nourished by the rich promises of God. This sermon offers invaluable guidance on finding satisfaction in Christ and cultivating a life rooted in heavenly affections rather than temporal comforts. Together, these sermons serve as a guide for professing Christians, offering biblical counsel on:
- Walking wisely in a fallen, temptation-filled world.
- Trusting in God's providence amidst trials and uncertainties.
- Cultivating humility, contentment, and a teachable spirit.
- Detaching from the fleeting allure of the world and setting affections on eternal joys in Christ. This second edition of The Christian's Duty to Walk Wisely brings renewed attention to Matthew Mead's sermons, carefully updated and clarified for the modern reader while preserving their rich theological depth. This edition seeks to make Mead's biblical teachings on spiritual wisdom and grace accessible to a new generation of believers striving to walk faithfully in a fallen world. Matthew Mead (Meade) (1630-1699) was an independent puritan divine, and popular reformed preacher and morning lecturer at Stepney Church (London). C. Matthew McMahon, Ph.D., Th.D., is a Reformed theologian, and pastor of Grace Chapel in Crossville, TN; part of the Biblical Reformed Synod of Christ the King. He is the founder and chairman of A Puritan's Mind, the largest Reformed website on the internet for students of the Bible concerning Reformed Theology, the Puritans and Covenant Theology. He is the founder of Puritan Publications which publishes rare Reformed and Puritan works from the 17th century, specializing in the Westminster Assembly. He is also the owner of Reformed.org, and the Center for Reformed Theology and Apologetics.
