Excerpt from A Treatise on Homiletics: Designed to Illustrate the True Theory and Practice of Preaching the Gospel
This volume aims to present, in a systematic form, comprehensive and scriptural views of the numerous topics embraced in its theme. It draws illustrations from the experiences of the past, and motives from the necessities of the present and the future. It seek to stimulate both study and effort for the attainment of excellence in the discharge of the highest duty allotted to men.
The primary object of its preparation was to furnish a text-book for clerical students and junior ministers. The favorable reception accorded to it by preachers of experience and ability has encouraged the author to revise his work, and make such additions as time and trial have suggested. It is again issued with increased hopefulness that it may be useful to many who hold their talents and their lives consecrated to the glorious task of preaching "the unsearchable riches of Christ."
