John Gratton (1641-1711) was one of many early Quakers who were convinced of the truth directly by the Lord, apart from the preaching or writings of others in the Society of Friends. His desperate and agonizing pursuit of true Christianity (amongst the many sects and opinions of the day) finally brought him to dramatically experience the truth of Christ’s promise—“Everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.” Having found the truth he had so diligently sought for, he loved it, and submitted to its powerful operations in his own heart, becoming an esteemed minister and a great sufferer for the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Friends Library Publishing exists to freely share the writings of early members of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers), believing that no other collection of Christian writings more accurately communicates or powerfully illustrates the soul-transforming power of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
