Collins, Printers, 675 PREFACE. THE following lectures, delivered in the ordinary course of parochial instruction, and now, through the persuasion of many friends, given to the public, present, with equal justness of argument and vigour of thought and style, a subject, which, whether it be viewed with reference to the prominence given it in Holy Writ, or to its direct and manifest influence upon the Christian character, may be pronounced inferior to few others in the whole circle of sanctifying truth—a subject, which, while it diffuses over every feature of the scheme of man's redemption light and life, directs the eye of the believer chiefly to that period, when the glory of this scheme shall be complete, in the visible and universal triumph over sin and death, of the Divine Deliverer. |
