Excerpt from Modern Christianity: Or the Plain Gospel Modernly Expounded To whom the sermons herein contained were preached, as, judging from their prefaces, is usually the case with volumes of printed sermons. It is published so as to preserve, in a form more permanent than the spoken word, certain things which I have felt moved to utter, which do not seem to me to have been altogether said by others. The sermons here published do not for mally constitute a body of theology, but they have been selected and arranged with a view to presenting, in some sort of sequence, and with some regard to the due pro portion of emphasis, the essentials of Christianity the Incarnation, the Resurrection, the Ascension, and the re-incamation, if I may so put it, of the spirit of Jesus in His followers. I think I may claim that the doctrine expressed in these sermons is ancient orthodox, and Catholic, but the mode of statement 18 modern, and the emphasis doubtless different from that to which some of my hoped for readers are accustomed. Not my self a good reader of sermons, nor even always a good listener, I have hesitated long in publishing my mate rial in sermon form, but after careful consideration I have concluded that it will be on the whole more intel ligible to and more readable by my desired public in.
