Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Consistency of the Divine Conduct in Revealing the Doctrines of Redemption: Being the Hulsean Lectures for the Year 1841; To Which Are Added, Two Sermons, Preached Before the University of Cambridge
SO much of the Gospel system as belongs to its character as the final and full revelation of God to man, must be excluded from our view, and our attention in the first place confined to those fundamental doctrines of which the life, death, and triumph Of its Founder were the actual proofs and complete attestations. Ac cording to the degree of recognition of the eternal verities of redemption, would the whole ceremonial system, in which these latter events were shadowed forth, tend to inform' and re assure the ancient servants Of God: while pro phecy, having regard passingly to these same events, but mainly to the future effects and glories of God's Church, would be in the same proportion rightly and profitably interpreted. I am then engaged to ascertain to what extent these great truths were recognized; not only as they might be suggested primarily by typical ordinances or the prophetic word, but as they might be acknowledged independently of these, and might have formed a part Of the original belief Of the Patriarchal Church.
