Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Sunday Library, Vol. 4: Or the Protestant´s Manual for the Sabbath-Day; Being a Selection of Sermons From Eminent Divines of the Church of England, Chiefly Within the Last Half Century; With Occasional Biographical Sketches and Notes In the selection of the two immediately following Sermons, from the writings of one of the most erudite as well as venerable of Living Prelates, I consider that I am conferring a really essential service upon the Christian community. The first of these Discourses (upon False Philosophy) was written and published at a moment of extreme agitation and anxiety respecting the probable issue of the French Revolution, and of divers fantastical and even mischievous opinions circulated with unremitted diligence in our own country. The publication of the Sermon in question was at once opportune and successful. The solidity of the arguments and the strength of the diction carry conviction home to the most disputatious understanding; and at no period can such a discourse be considered obsolete. The second Sermon (upon The Preaching Of Our Lord) exhibits the peculiar features of the writer´s character: liberality of feeling, comprehensiveness of views, extent of learning, felicity of illustration, and piety of heart. It suffers nothing upon comparison with the ablest discourse (perhaps that of Dr. Townson?)upon the same subject; and I sincerely wish that younger divines, in particular, would make themselves masters of the scope of reasoning which it exhibits. The whole is founded upon a thorough knowledge of the inspired text, and of the aids which that text must always derive from apposite illustration. For the more obvious purposes of this work, I have omitted a few of the Bishops notes in the Greek and Latin languages; but have retained the whole of those in the English tongue.
