The Sinner's Sanctuary: Gospel Freedom from Death, Condemnation, and the Law (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798886860214)

Hugh Binning (1627-1653) was a Scottish Covenanter who served as a professor at the University of Glasgow and a minister of Govan. Binning showed great promise as a student from a young age. He entered Glasgow University at the age of thirteen and finished his master's degree and had become a professor of philosophy at the university by the time he was nineteen. Two years later he married Barbara Simpson, the daughter of a minister from Ireland, and the couple had a son, John. The call to the ministry was strong, though, and so he set out to learn theology. When he was twenty-two, he took up the pastorate at Govan, where he served until his death from consumption at the age of twenty-six. All his writings were collected posthumously.
