Book Description

Excerpt from Sermons and Other Writings of the Rev. Andrew Broaddus: With a Memoir of His Life The character of the materials here used rendered a very methodical arrangement of them entirely impracticable. Most of these articles were not originally intended to have any con nection with each other. Some of them (necessarily placed here in immediate juxtaposition) were penned at intervals of months, and sometimes even of years between each other; and all were written without any expectation, on the part of the author, of their publication. By bearing in mind this statement, the reader will be prepared to account for the want of imme diate connection which sometimes exists between articles on the same subject, and for the occasional repetition of the same thought in different articles. It is hoped, however, that the want of very exact methods may prove, in this case, a recom mendation rather than a defect. An Opportunity is thus afford ed for variety; and thus the views of the author are exhibited on most of those subjects, which have engaged the attention of the friends and the foes of religion. In this way, too, a body of Divinity will be furnished to the religious public, and espe cially to the Baptist community, which, though not so methodical or ponderous as other treatises, may yet prove, it is believed.
