Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

With the eye of faith elevated to the Eternal sthrone, we look for affiftance in and wait for his bleffing, upon our undertaking. We propofe, I. To confider the nature of faith, and invefligate wherein its el Tential a6ls confift. II. As faith is a necel Tary requifite, in approaching the table of the Lord, fo we I hall urge the natural man to the ufe of all thofe means, which, if accompanied with a bleffing from on high, will tend to make hfm a partaker of that divine principle. III. We fhall point out the growids on which a child of God may be aJGT ured of his being in the faith, and the obligation he is under to feek, to cherilli, and preferve this Chriilian grace. That we may fpeak with accuracy on the firfl propofed fubjeft, it mufl be previoufly remarked, 1. That to. believe is not to be of the opinion, or, to be in doubt, whether a thing be fo or not, as the phrafe is daily mifapplied when converfing on natural things. It is not uncommon for a perfon to fay, this or that I believe, whenever on the one hand reafons are offered for thus judging, and on the other fome reafon exifts why he ftiould doubt the faft. But this is not believing, it is rather to be confidered as doubting, and in its nature is wholly different from the fubjeft of this le6lure. 2. To believe is not fimply to have a perfuafion or a knowledge of the exiftence of a thing: for a perfon may have this perjuajion, and his mind yield no aflfent, yea, feel an averfion from it. In refpeft to natural objects, it may have place, but not in re gard to thofe which are fpiritual.
