Description:A Sermon, Delivered on the First Thursday of November, 1809: Being a Day of Public Thanks-Giving, Appointed by the Reformed Presbyterian Church in the United States of America.Correct morals are necessary to public as well as private happiness. To discover the path of rectitude between the tramplers on human rights, and those who exalt them to the exclusion of the rights of Deity, is as important as it is desirable.To guard those committed to his pastoral care, especially the rising generation, for whom he has a peculiar concern, against the contagion of licentious and tyrannical principles, in politics, and to direct their attention to the religion of the Saviour of men, not only for bliss hereafter; but for felicity here, were principal inducements to the author, to prepare and preach the following discourse. The same motives, chiefly, influence him to commit it, through the medium of the press, to the public eye; for requests of hearers, as in most such cases, might have been set aside. Whether his feeble attempts shall, as a mean, contribute in any degree to the accomplishment of these ends is not for him to say.A multiplicity of pastoral duties forbids due attention to correctness, which renders it probable that inaccuracies may be found; but it is now too late to apologize.No claims are pretended to novelty. Truth though ancient and often exhibited is, on these accounts, neither less amiable nor less important.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
