Particularly: - To set forth in a just and striking light, the grand defects of Christian character which hinder the triumph of the Redeemer´s kingdom on earth, and the cause of these defects: To delineate the true New Testament model of Christian character and Christian life: To revive and perpetuate the faith illustrated in the eleventh chapter of Hebrews, as an energizing and all-conquering principle, actually subordinating earthly things to heavenly: To show the true sense of the self-denial required by Christ as essential to discipleship: To urge the peculiar responsibility of Christians at the present day, to attain to a higher degree of faith and holiness, and to exhibit the same, particularly in personal efforts for the salvation of men: Together with The motives and means of this attainment.
