Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sermons for the People If I were to say, in the familiar phrase, that these Sermons were "prepared in the ordinary course of the ministry," and for the most part at an earlier period of it, and "with no view to their publication," I should thus show no cause why they should now be deliberately printed. If I were to record my sense of their manifold and large defects, I should but appear to be pronouncing myself, in advance, as wise as the critics. Let me only remark, therefore, that they have been both written and printed, because I thoroughly believe the things affirmed in them to be true, and have hoped that other persons might be willing to meditate upon them with me. The title given to the book will probably suggest all that needs to be said of the principle that has governed the selection of subjects and the style of their treatment. One topic, the Reconciliation in Christ, though by no means neglected here, has a less extended and less complete presentation, because of a desire to discuss it separately, more at large, and more at leisure, than is possible now. Without bringing forward any personal claim to the attention of considerable numbers of "the people," I am earnestly desirous to render a little service to some of those who are not much in the habit of reading discourses prepared for the pulpit. Were I to give to this title a more special and local application, by emphasizing the definite article, I should not exaggerate my feeling of unmingled and unmeasured gratitude and love towards my former congregation, - a People that must always be to me, in a signification that stands alone, The People, - a People that I tried for thirteen years to help, whose harmony, energy, and fidelity made my work delightful, and whose constant kindness I cannot repay, save by these unworthy acknowledgments, and by an attachment that will never be changed.
