PREFACE.

THE following work is designed particularly for the use of individuals and families, whose volumes are few and whose reading is not extensive. And for the purpose of rendering it the more useful, a considerable portion of six interesting subjects is taken from the writings of men so eminent, that publick utility is offered as an apology for thus presuming.

A few other particulars have been selected from other authors. It is hoped the selection of subjects and their illustration, will interest many who are not professedly pious, as well as edify the most devout Christian. As a large number in this vicinity have become subscribers for the present volume with the expectation of its containing considerable variety, exertions have been made not to have them disappointed. The present and future well-being of man, is the object for which these sermons appear in print. The author humbly hopes, his labours in preparing this work for publication, will in some degree prove useful for the promoting of its designed end; there fore, it is presented to the publick.
