Edmund Calamy draws a sharp contrast between the pursuit of earthly, transient desires and the genuine, heavenly pursuit of the things of Jesus Christ. He passionately calls upon readers to examine their hearts and evaluate their own motivations, urging them to seek Christ’s kingdom and righteousness as their primary focus.

Throughout the book, Calamy explores various facets of self-seeking, addressing how it can manifest in individuals and even within institutions such as churches and governments. He emphasises the danger of using religion or spirituality as a mere façade for personal gain, alluding to historical examples of deceitful religious figures who disguised their self-interest behind a veil of piety.

“The Monster of Sinful Self-Seeking, Anatomised” serves as a profound spiritual reflection and a call to self-examination. Calamy contends that true self-seeking is found in seeking Christ and His purposes above all else. He encourages readers to align their lives with this divine pursuit, believing that only through genuine devotion to Christ can individuals, communities, and nations find salvation and redemption from the perils of sinful self-seeking.
