Glorifying God in Sickness and in the Approach of Death (Puritan Writings Series) 

"Godliness is profitable for all things," the apostle tells us in 1 Timothy 4:8. And when it comes to sickness and our last days, godliness in this is no exception. It might be considered unthinkable and almost impossible to exercise ourselves piously in such a sad, regrettable, and painful condition. But undoubtedly everything is against such a consideration. The following question would then arise: "If not, how then should we walk piously in such a dismal condition?" And in this writing, we have the answer to that question. In it, Bayly provides us with a practical guide on how to conduct ourselves piously from the moment sickness grips us until the moment sickness kills us, providing a wealth of meditations, advice, warnings, consolations, instructions, and prayers to do so. And he does this in a totally tender and profoundly biblical way. Through this, the Christian will be able to gain the maximum spiritual benefit when in this condition of illness, and it will lead them to prepare adequately when their final time on this earth also arrives.
