PRESENT DAY TRACTS

THE

PREFACE.

HE branch of the series of Present Day Tracts devoted

to the discussion of the non-Christian religions of the world has reached such a state of completeness that it seems advisable to issue the Tracts belonging to it in a separate Volume. It is believed that the convenience of readers. specially interested in this study will be met by this arrangement. The Tracts will thus be made more readily available for use by students, by teachers of Christian Evidence classes, and others. The six Tracts comprised in this branch of the Series are simply bound together and furnished with a title page and table of contents.

The Tracts are all by writers who have had special opportunities of studying the non-Christian religions treated among the people who profess them, or have given such prolonged study and attention to the subjects on which they write that they have a claim to be heard, and to speak or write with authority upon them.

It is hoped that the separate issue of these Tracts in a collected form will not only prove to be helpful in their work to many who are not strangers to the Present Day Tracts, but also deepen and extend the already wide-spread interest in the series
