About This Book

Step out of the 'Worldly Labyrinth' and into the sanctuary of the heart with Johann Valentin Andreae’s radical 17th-century manifesto. This text challenges readers to trade the vanity of social titles and material wealth for a 'Kingdom of the Cross' where spiritual poverty is the ultimate treasure and Christ is the only true Monarch.

Illustrations2
