Category: Thomas Boston

Thomas Boston (1676–1732) was a Scottish minister in the rural parish of Ettrick, where he served for 25 years. His Human Nature in Its Fourfold State traces humanity through innocence, sin, grace and glory, and it was one of the most widely read books in Scotland for a century. Boston wrote with deep pastoral sympathy, shaped by his own losses. The quotes below come from that book and his other works.
