This little book offers a guide to how Satan tries to attack the Christian in different ways, at different times and under different conditions. Christians have to be ready to wrestle, war and withstand these attacks. Ambrose, a Puritan, highlights specific temptations offered by Satan at particular points in life and provides ways of striving hard against them.

Puritan Isaac Ambrose entreats Christians to battle against sin, the world, and the flesh. Modernized and slightly abridged for today's readers.
