Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Discourses on the Commandments, and the Sacraments of Baptism and the Lord´s Supper, Vol. 8: From the Lectures on the Catechism These lectures have been always considered by the Church of England as a standard work, and containing a most luminous and devout exposition of her doctrines, or, to use the words of Bp. Porteus, "one of the fullest, clearest, and most exact compendiums of revealed religion, that the English language affords." In presenting them to public notice in this country, the Editor has been apprehensive, lest the size and cost of the volume containing all the Lectures, might prove an obstacle to the general circulation of such an invaluable work. The difficulty, however, was, where all is so excellent, to make a satisfactory selection: after mature deliberation, and weighty advice, he is induced to omit for the present the Lectures on the creed, and the Lord´s prayer, although these may also probably constitute a separate volume of the same size hereafter. This omission however, lie at any rate conceives, may more readily be supplied by other treatises on these parts of the catechism, than the lectures on the commandments and the sacraments, which the Reader, it is trusted, will find to be eminently instructive and satisfactory; and in which, even very high attainments in religious knowledge will discover additional light, and fresh excitements to devotion.
