Foreward
To speak to God on behalf of men is probably the highest service any of us can render. The next is to speak to men in the name of God. Either is a privilege possible to us only through the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.
To sit even for a moment in the chair of the teacher and write that which may affect the life and character of numerous persons is not only a lofty privilege but a grave responsibility as well.
The only qualifications I bring to this writing of these pages are love of the Triune Godhead and a sorrowful concern for the spiritual welfare of the Church which our Lord purchased with His own blood.
If there is anything here good or helpful to the children of God it must be attributed to the operation of the Holy Spirit who often condescends to work through unworthy instruments. Whatever else may be found here is due to human weakness and is better forgotten.
My prayers go with this book and with all who may chance to read it.
