THE ANGLOSPHERE’S BROKEN COVENANT
Rediscovering the validity and importance of the Solemn League and Covenant
By Michael Wagner. Gospel Covenant Publications. 67 pages. US$7.00
ISBN 978-0-98285-640-6

This little book argues that the 1643 Solemn League and Covenant is still binding on the countries of the British Isles and beyond (hence the Anglosphere of the title) and that our nations are under God’s judgment because this covenant has been neglected.

One sympathises with the sentiment that a basic knowledge of key events is necessary to understand one’s society (p.11) and the 1643 Covenant was certainly a significant event. And no doubt, like the author, we yearn for our nations to return to the Lord.
