Description
Excerpt from The Works of the Rev. Henry Scougal: Consisting of the Life of God in the Soul of Man; The Superior Excellency of the Religious; The Indispensable Duty of Loving Our Enemies; The Necessity and Advantage of Early Afflictions; That There Are but a Small Number Saved
To the same purpose, let us hear the before mentioned Mr. Cockburn. The clear style, and easy method of our author, the just and amiable representation he gives of reli gion, in this little treatise, have made it deservedly valued and esteemed by all judicious persons: and it has become a happy means of giving right notions of religion to many, making them in love with it, and putting them upon the practice of what they saw was infinitely desirable in itself, and, with some pains and industry, attainable by them.
The Reverend Dr. Wishart, Principal of the College of Edinburgh, published, some years ago, a small edition of this incomparable Treatise, with a recommendatory preface, equally pious, candid, and judicious; an extract of which will, therefore, very properly conclude our preface.
