Excerpt from A Practical View of the Prevailing Religious System of Professed Christians, in the Higher and Middle Classes in This Country, Contrasted With Real Christianity
The main object which he has in view-is, not to convince the Sceptic, or to answer the arguments of persons who avowedly oppose the fundamental doc trines of our Religion; but to point out the scanty and erroneous system of the bulk of those who bee long to the class of orthodox Christians, and to con trast their defective scheme with a representation of what the author capprehends to be real Christianity. Often has it filled him with deep concern, to observe in this description of persons, scarcely any distinct knowledge of the real nature and principles of the Religion which they profess. The subject is of in finite importance; let it not be driven out of our minds by the hustle or dissipation of life. This pre sent scene, with all its cares and all its gaieties, will soon be rolled away, and we must stand before the judgment-seat of Christ. This awful considera tion will prompt the writer to express himself with grbater freedom than he should otherwise be dis pissed to use. And he trusts that this consideration.

But if thewriter's apology should not be found in the work itself, and in his avowed motive for under taking it; in-vain would he endeavour to satisfy his renderli by anyex'cuses: he will' therefore proceed, without farther preamble; to lay before them a general statement of his design.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a thought-provoking critique of contemporary Christian faith, contrasting it with the author's understanding of authentic Christianity. The author expresses concern over the superficiality of religious practice, highlighting the lack of genuine understanding and application of Christian principles in everyday life. Set against the backdrop of Enlightenment skepticism and critiques of religion, the book argues for a deeper engagement with scripture and a more profound understanding of core Christian doctrines such as human depravity, redemption, and the role of emotions in faith. The author challenges prevailing notions of sincerity and good works, contending that true Christian faith should manifest in transformed hearts and lives, evidenced by love for Christ and a commitment to serving others. Exploring themes of gratitude, humility, and self-examination, this book invites readers to move beyond complacency and embrace a more vibrant and transformative faith experience. By delving into the complexities of human nature and the profound implications of Christ's teachings, the book offers timeless insights that continue to resonate with readers seeking a more meaningful and authentic expression of Christian faith.
