Publisher's Synopsis
What an inveterate tendency there is in the human heart to trust in outward forms, instead of seeking the inward grace! And where this is the case, what a hindrance, rather than help, have these forms proved to the growth, nay, to the very existence, of that spiritual life which constitutes the real and only force of Christian experience!It is a calamity deeply to be deplored that men should thus put the form in the place of the power, but they have always been doing so.
