"The Saint’s Inheritance and the Worldling’s Portion" is a newly published work, originally written in 1657, which concerns a study between the men of the world and God’s people saved in the Covenant of Grace. Men of the world mind earthly things which are temporary. This is their portion, and ultimately their demise. The people of God have their inheritance in Jesus Christ which is presently sealed by the Spirit while they live on earth, but given in its fullness in heaven. Burroughs biblically and practically works from Psalm 17:14 to teach on the worldling’s portion, “From men of the world, who have their portion in this life,” and from Psalm 16:3 for the saint’s inheritance, “But to the saints that are in the earth, and to the excellent men in whom is all my delight.” This is a wonderful work that glorifies the living God and His Son Jesus Christ showing that Christians must keep their eye on the treasure of God in heaven, rather than the fleeting lusts that men are drawn into here on earth. This work is not a scan or facsimile and has been made easy to read with an active table of contents for electronic versions.
