Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The System of Theology Contained in the Westminster Shorter Catechism: Opened and Explained There is an increasing desire to know what are the doctrines of Christianity as revealed in the word of God. Laymen, as Avell as ministers, are recognizing the necessity of having clear views of God´s plan of salvation, and of being able to impart them to others. To qnicken and satisfy this desire seems to have been a cherished purpose of Rev. A. A. Hodge, D.D., both as pastor and professor. In the home, church, classroom, by the press and on the platform, he sought to popularize theology. His success was manifest in the numbers who sought to hear him, and in their increasing interest in his instructions. He therefore readily assented when asked to prepare a concise text-book for theological instruction. He naturally determined to make a brief exposition of the Shorter Catechism, for it was prepared by the learned divines of the Westminster Assembly, it is the most comprehensive and accurate statement of Christian doctrine, it is a part of the constitution of our Presbyterian Church, and, it is adapted to popular instruction, having been prepared for the young that they might be early taught the truth at home and in the church.
