The Saints Dignity and Duty is a religious book written by Thomas Hooker, a prominent Puritan theologian, in the 17th century. The book is a treatise on the nature of sanctification and the responsibilities that come with being a Christian. Hooker argues that all Christians are called to a life of holiness and that this holiness is necessary for true spiritual growth and communion with God. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the dignity of being a saint, which he defines as someone who has been set apart by God for his purposes. He also outlines the duties that come with this calling, including prayer, obedience, and living a virtuous life. Throughout the book, Hooker draws on biblical teachings and the writings of other Christian thinkers to support his arguments. The Saints Dignity and Duty is a significant work in the history of Puritan theology and remains relevant to contemporary discussions of Christian ethics and spirituality.1651. Together with the danger of ignorance and hardness, delivered in several sermons.
