Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Impartial Exposition of the Evidences and Doctrines of the Christian Religion: Addressed to the Better Educated Classes of Society When I first undertook to write the following Essay I had no intention whatever of making it public. I was solely influenced by the suggestions of parental solicitude to prepare something that should assist my own children to the better comprehension of a subject which I deemed of all others the most important. But when the work was nearly finished, it seemed to me that its publication could not but have a beneficial influence at the present time, when the institutions of the civilized world, seem to be on the eve of a great change in which new opinions must subvert ancient prejudices, and society be regulated by a theory of principles very different from those which have hitherto influenced the interests of mankind. Under such an impression I resolved to publish the work in which I was engaged, and which only required me to suppress or change a phraseology addressed to my own children into forms of speech suitable to persons who would not regard my opinions under any influence of filial prepossession. The first principles of the Christian religion are necessarily received by children in prejudices which are strengthened by the example of those around them. But as they advance in life, the time arrives when every intellectual person must determine by his own perception of truth, and on his own responsibility, whether he will obey the gospel of Jesus Christ or not. This important determination for the most part forces itself on young men when they are most exposed to the temptations of life, and when surrounded by companions not only indifferent, but in too many instances directly hostile to the theory and obligations of the Christian religion.
