THIS Volume contains a Fourth Course of Lectures delivered in St. Giles' Cathedral, Edinburgh, on Sunday afternoons in 1883-84. The Subject of which they treat-the differing faiths of Christendom -is one which must have a deep, if a sorrowful interest for many. It was the earnest desire of the promoters of this Course of Lectures that the subjects discussed, involving necessarily matters of controversy and difference of opinion, should be treated in a fair and generous spirit. It is believed the reader will be of opinion that this desire on their part has, on the whole, been well carried out. Should, however, any exception be found, it is necessary to state that each Lecturer is only responsible for his own contribution. All the Lectures were delivered also in St. Mary's Parish Church, Dundee. ST. GILES', EDINBURGH, May 1884. |
