Puritan Board Sophomore
I have heard several times now of readers saying there are certain Puritans who are not helpful or should be avoided.
Obviously within the more extensive grouping of people deemed Puritans, there are several with unorthodox views - I'm thinking of John Milton towards the extreme end, and Richard Baxter on the other end (with his tendency towards neonomianism). So clearly we would be wary of their theological views.
However, people who say to avoid reading certain Puritans rarely give their names. So I am putting this question out to you all - are there any Puritan writings you would advise to steer clear of?
