A marvelous publication! Formerly only found in 3 volumes, now in one large folio (9" x 12") of over 1,000 pages, at an astonishing price.
Charles Spurgeon called Fuller "the greatest theologian of his century", and his close friend, missionary William Carey, for whom he faithfully raised support, spoke often of his deep love for Fuller.
Laboring 33 years as pastor of the same church in Kettering, Northamptonshire, Fuller authored one of the most famous books of the 18th century: The Gospel Worthy of All Acceptation, the original, inspiring call to missionary endeavor for the English. Fuller was key in forming the Baptist Missionary Society (1792) and in sending their most famous missionary (William Carey) to India in 1793.

The dominant theme of Fuller's Works is the grace of God in the gospel.
In his last letter to his friend John Ryland, Jr., Fuller wrote: "I have preached and written much against the abuse of the doctrine of grace, but that doctrine is all my salvation and all my desire. I have no other hope than from salvation by mere sovereign, efficacious grace through the atonement of my Lord and Saviour".
Converted in 1769, Fuller was called to pastor his own family's church in 1775. These were the formative years of his ministry, when his theological understanding was sharpened through close study of the writings of Jonathan Edwards, and by his life-long friendships with his closest ministerial colleagues, Robert Hall Sr., John Ryland Jr., and John Sutcliff.
Michael Haykin writes: "This epoch-making book sought to be faithful to the central emphases of historic Calvinism while at the same time attempting to leave preachers with no alternative but to drive home to their hearers the universal obligations of repentance and faith."
