Book Description
Excerpt from Plain Practical Sermons In passing through a dark forest which appears to defy our entering, were we to espy a house nicely laid out, surrounded by all the necessaries of life and happi ness, would we not immediately conclude that man must have made his home there; that though no one be visible about it yet some one must have built it, must even now dwell there, since it is in such good order. Would we ever think of ascribing the origin of that house to chance, or would we dare to assert that this lifeless mass of timber thrown into the shape and form of a house had always been, there? Why, we would be laughed at; we would be called insane; and yet, my friends, will you credit it, there have been men who, looking at this vast Universe, with all its variety of beauty and order, have said that it was the work of chance that it had no author - no intelligent author - though showing efiects which could be produced by no other than an intelligent cause. This theory had its supporters, though shocking to common sense and the reason of mankind. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Book of Sermons: Practical and Controversial The following discourses are published at the suggestion and by the solicitation of friends, and not because of any special merit the author attaches to them. Some of them were written years ago, and now appear again, slightly revised. Others have been recently written, and now for the first time appear in print. The sixth sermon is an address to young men by J. Randolph tucker, formerly attorney-general of Virginia, revised and amended by the author of this work. 'i regard it as the best lay sermon extant, and as largely contributing to the value of this book. The eighteenth sermon, by Bro. Geo. Plattenburg, is a very suitable one with which to close the volume, and is specially commended to the consideration of the reader. I have not written for the critic, but for the candid enquirer after the truth; and if I have sometimes seemed severe, I beg the reader to remember that truth is a two-edged sword, cutting both ways.

Book Description
Excerpt from Practical Sermons: To Be Read in Families and Social Meetings Several years have elapsed since the author promised to a few friends, that, if life and health should be continued, he would endea vour to prepare a volume Of sermons on practical subjects, to be circulated by the Presbyterian Board of Publication. Incessant occupation in professional duties, occasioned the postponement Of the fulfilment Of this promise from time to time; until recently, when he was informed that the Board Of Publication were desirous to put such a volume into circulation; especially for the benefit of families who were deprived of the opportunity of attending on the preaching of the gospel. At first it occurred to him, that for the purposes Of the Board, such a volume had better be composed Of a collection 'of sermons contributed by different ministers of our church. But upon reflec tion, he was persuaded that it would be found difficult to get the proper persons to furnish discourses on the topics which might be prescribed. And he has Observed, that when the sermons of several persons are included in the same volume, there is a disposition in many readers to make invidious comparisons between the authors; and while some discourses are highly valued, others are neglected. Upon the whole, it seems best that every author should make his own book; and to Obtain a desirable variety, more volumes of sermons than one should be put into circulation. The author being aware that books of sermons are not in as much demand as publications of another kind, would not have consented that the Board Of Publication should run the risk of an edition Of this volume; but this objection was obviated by the generous pro posal of the friends referred to above, to bear the whole expense of stereotyping the work.

Sermons on Practical Subjects, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)

Book Description
Excerpt from Sermons on Practical Subjects, Vol. 1 The Sermons of the Reverend Robert Walker have long and justly enjoyed a large portion of Public approbation. Those which were published in the Author's lifetime acquired a rapid reputation. The Sermons which were added after his death, though deficient perhaps in the last polish of an intended publication, did not detract from his well-earned fame; and the whole Work has steadily maintained the respect which it at first acquired. The present Edition, in three Volumes, contains all the Sermons of Mr. Walker, which have appeared, either during his life or after his death - as well those which were published separately as those which were collected in volumes. Though there were neither striking incidents, nor much variety, in the life of the Author, the following facts will not be unacceptable to his friends. He was born in Canongate, where his father was minister, in 1716. He received a regular education at the University of Edinburgh. Happening to reside for a few months in 1737 with a clergyman in Galloway, he was licensed to preach the gospel by the Presbytery of Kircudbright. In 1738, in consequence of an unanimous call, he was ordained minister of Straiton, within the bounds of the Presbytery of Ayr. He always mentioned this situation with particular satisfaction, and considered the years which he spent at Straiton as among the happiest years of his life. In 1746 he was translated to the Second Charge of South Leith. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
