Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Exercises on the Heidelberg Catechism: Adapted to the Use of Families, Sabbath-Schools, and Catechetical Classes The Heidelberg Catechism has deservedly been held in high esteem by all Christian denominations who receive the system of doctrines it embodies. Its various questions and answers are especially distinguished for their expressiveness and force. The fundamental truths of the gospel are everywhere made prominent in it, and invariably set forth in such a manner as to address themselves, not only to the understanding, but also directly to the heart. It is one of its striking peculiarities, that it always supposes the person addressed in the questions and replying in the answers, to be experimentally acquainted with the divine truths about which it inquires. The Catechism, however, in its naked form, must remain in a great measure a sealed book to most catechumens, and be difficult of study to children, both in the family and in the Sabbath school. In view of this fact, an effort to present it in such a form as to facilitate the labors of parents, teachers, and pastors, and, at the same time, to render the study of the Catechism both easy and pleasant to children and catechumens, was thought to be a desirable as well as acceptable service. Hence, the preparation of the present work was undertaken several years ago, and a large edition of it given to the public. This edition, however, has been exhausted; and as it is deemed desirable to have the work perpetuated in a permanent form, it has been carefully revised for this purpose. A considerable number of the explanations which appeared in the first edition, together with their corresponding questions in the exercises, have been omitted. This, it is thought, will add to the value of the volume, instead of detracting front its merits. The plan of the work is so simple in itself as to require but little explanation to render it perfectly intelligible to all.
