Preparations for Sufferings


Leído por InTheDesert

(4.5 stars; 1 reviews)

That sufferings, both bodily and mental, are the lot of humanity, the testimony of scripture and reason abundantly confirm. But whatever may be their nature or their intensity, the mind well-grounded in the hope of a glorious immortality through faith in the merits of the Redeemer, and looking at the glory that shall follow, will “hold out stedfast unto the end,” and say with joy, “it was good for me that I was afflicted.” To illustrate this position by a variety of sound, convincing, and scriptural arguments, and examples, is the aim of this well-timed publication. - Summary by The Imperial Magazine August 1833 (4 hr 3 min)
