A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Board of Publication of the Reformed Dutch Church have recently commenced publishing a series of Christian School Books, designed to restore Christianity to its proper place in Education. The first books of that series, the Primer andR eaders, expressly prepared by able men whose hearts were interested in the subject, have already been issued. The plan of the series embraced, among other works, aH istory of theW orld, on Christian Principles. Not finding a suitable person willing to prepare such aH istory as was needed, the writer was led to commit to paper some foundation thoughts, which he wished to be brought out prominently in it. His desire was that the student of history might learn, that the Creator had a purpose in view when he created the world: that the history of the world, in connection with divine revelation, is a development of that purpose: that everything that happens, from the minutest providence to the overthrow of empires, is subservient to that purpose, and is part of it: and that all inventions, and all knowledge imparted to man, are for the same end :and that is, the revelation of Himself in theL ord Jesus Christ; and the manifestation of His glory throiigh His church. These foundation thoughts, connecting the first facts inH istory with all the subsequent history of the world, and with the world to come, have necessarily been extended.
