Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Prophecy a Preparation for Christ: Eight Lectures Preached Before the University of Oxford in the Year 1869 on the Foundation of the Late Rev. John Bampton, Canon of Salisbury
Such a knowledge of God, and of His purposes towards us, and of our relation to Him, as will suffice for the wants of the soul. It implies, too, the bestowal of sufficient aid to enable us to fulfil our obligations to God, and of some means for the purification of the conscience from the stain of sin, and for the raising of the soul from its present degradation to a fitness for the reception of God's mercies. We assert that Christianity is the sole religion upon earth which fulfils these necessary conditions: and farther, that God has given us the sole satisfactory proof that it is the true religion by pledging His own attributes in its behalf.
