Excerpt from The Christian Preacher: Yale Lectures for 1879-80With these two thoughts to guide me, I shall indulge in nothing of an abstract or investigational character, and doubtless shall say much that is fa miliar to all. This lectureship was not designed as an arena where emulating sages should show their prowess, but as an Opportunity for counsel and ad vice from veterans to the new recruits, and with the deep interest and affection that such a relation be speaks, and a due sense of the responsibility involved, I trust I may have grace to address you.As preliminary to this course of thought, I would essay to correct some common errors in the use of words, Which have much in¿uence in forming current ideas and establishing false conclusions.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
