A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

It will appear from the following memoirs, that the author possesseil uncommon tenderness of conacicnce, extending not only to every plain deviation from the strict rule of duty, but even to matters of mere human intirmity, and such as would escape, not only censure, but almost notice in many persons of approved character: but it was a small thing with him to be justified in mans judgment; for he saw evil in its root, and inward workings ia the ground of his nature, where its operations were not the less real before God, because not apparent to others, and therefore he could not rest satisfied with any thing short of a clean heart and a right spirit from theL ord ;and thus must it ever be with the interior Christian, who brings every thing to the test of that pure lawof God, before which nothing can stand that is not according to truth and righteousness in the inward parts. When theD i- vineS pirit maketh his abode in the soul of man, it maketh him to be of a quick understanding in the fear of theL ord, opens to the view of his mind many hidden things of darkness, which before lay concealed from him, and convinceth him of his most secret sins: hence proceed self-judging, self-condemnation, and all the holy exercises of a penitent and contrite heart. Some will be ready to make an objection to the religious character of our author, as being in bondage to the law, and to fear, and, as such, a stranger to that perfect law of liberty, which is the highest excellence of the gospel dispensation.
