Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Sermon Occasioned by the Death of the Rev. James Patterson: Preached in the First Presbyterian Church, Northern Liberties, November 26th; And in the First Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, December 3d, 1837
The sentiment of the text is, that the removal of a good manis an occasion which should prompt us to look to God for aid and consolation. It is an event which is peculiarly adapted to show us our dependence on him, and our need of his assistance, and of his merciful interposition to accomplish the plans which the godly and the faithful was endeavouring to effect. Object will be to illustrate this truth on this oc casion; and the entire course of my remarks, I trust, will be such as to leave this sentiment dee ly impressed on our minds and hearts.
