Excerpt from To Commend Truth to the Conscience the Object of a Faithful Minister: A Sermon, Delivered March 9th, 1825, at the Installation of the Rev. Leonard Bacon, as Pastor of the First Congregational Church and Society in New-Haven God, who is the Author of divine truth, and also of the human mind, has doubtless established a correspondence between them. In other words, he has so constituted the mind of man, that truth, clearly presented, is seen and felt to be truth. The correctness of this remark Will at once be perceived, if we consider that God has revealed his truth for the express purpose of instructing men respecting their duty and hope: - that a knowledge of it lies at the foundation of all true religion and happiness; - that it is, indeed, the grand instrument by which he administers his moral government over the world, and by which he sanctifies and prepares his people for his heavenly presence. That truth, so important to all, and revealed for such high and holy purposes, should commend itself to the minds of all, - especially to the conscience, that faculty in man, by which he judges of right and wrong, of duty and obligation, is what might be expected from the known constitution of the mind, and the revealed adaptation of truth to its faculties and its future destination. Accordingly it appears from our text that Paul and his fellow Apostles did so preach the Gospel as to commend themselves to every mans conscience in the sight of God. The inference is plain. The truth, which they exhibited, was seen and felt by their hearers to be truth. Otherwise it could not have extorted from them a commendation of the Apostles as honest and upright men, who lived and acted as in the sight of God. But not to pursue this train of thought further, let us consider the example of the Apostles, exhibited in.
