Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pilgrim´s Progress in the Nineteenth Century The Pilgrim´s Progress In The Nineteenth Century contends for the distinguishing truths and order of the Gospel. It exalts God. by ascribing to him his real perfections and prerogatives. It searches the heart, keeps prominent the vital distinction between the saint and sinner, and draws the line between the one only disinterested, and the many forms of selfish religion. No one can read these pages without feeling that it is a great thing to be a Christian. It is a body of discriminating instruction on doctrinal truth and experimental religion, on revivals, and the way to promote them, - in easy, colloquial discourse; and is fitted for distinguished usefulness in any age. In the present it seems to be peculiarly needed, and we trust will meet with a cordial reception. Several of the first chapters have been published three × and the inquiry has often been made, when the completion of the work might be expected. The Editor of the first Theological Magazine in our country once said of these first chapters: "So much discriminating evangelical truth, in so pleasing a style, was perhaps never before published in our world." The Author´s lamented death just as the work was going to press, has now sealed it as his last testimony in the cause of truth. The lapse of nearly a quarter of a century since the introduction of the new measures in promoting revivals, now seems to call for their exposure. Though a portion of the generation who witnessed these trying scenes are gone, there are some still living whose hearts are scarcely healed from the wounds they then received; and a generation is coming upon the stage, which needs to be guarded against these and similar devices of the adversary. To detect false principles, and trace moral causes to their final effects, is of great importance to the cause of truth. What the mounds and dikes of Holland have been to the sea of waters, such have been the publications of Edwards and others, to the floods of error that are ever liable to overflow and desolate the Church of God. This book presents another barrier. The cause of vital piety will be promoted by its circulation; and the future ecclesiastical historian will catch a prominent feature of our times from the record.
