Life in a Risen Savior
Gelesen von LibriVox Volunteers
I have endeavored, in these Discourses, to illustrate the line of argument pursued by the Apostle in the fifteenth chapter of First Corinthians. It is not, as I apprehend it, an argument about the resurrection generally. It has respect to one particular view of the resurrection; its bearing on the believer's spiritual and eternal life. I have sought to trace that line of thought which gives unity and coherence to the Apostle's reasoning. I have by no means, however, aimed at anything like a complete commentary or exposition.
I crave indulgence for some diffuseness, as well as for occasional repetitions, not easily to be avoided in a series of compositions for the pulpit, prepared often hastily from week to week, and all having reference, more or less directly, to one theme. I might have recast what I had thus prepared, so as to give it the form of a more compact treatise. But that is always an irksome task, — and not always a successful one. I have thought it best to publish the Discourses very much as they were when I preached them. - Summary from Preface
