Christ Our Example (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Christ Our Example

I have observed that even the word of God meets with but partial acceptance at the hands of these moralists; they like none of it but the gospels, which they idly and falsely conceive to be the practical part of Scripture. Character, character l - this is their cry; they will have nothing but character. It seems to them that professors of religion cannot be right, their conduct being so defective. Men of the world cannot be wrong, being so amiable and up' right.

Should any such persons cast an eye upon this page, I would bespeak from them a favour able attention. They will not find here a treatise upon faith. I shall not attempt to prove that such opinions virtually set at nought the sacrifice of Christ, make it useless, make it vain; deny the truth of the Scriptures, the corruption of man, the nature of sin, and the faithfulness of God in what he has revealed.
