THE AUTHOR'S PREFACE
(From the first edition, 1851)
The author is painfully sensible that his production has many defects, but he believes that they are such as will not be injurious to the reader -- blemishes rather than poisons. For these he asks your indulgence. Conscious of the sincerity of his motives, and hoping for the Divine benediction, he sends it forth upon its mission, trusting to find, in the day of the Lord Jesus, that it has produced some fruit. May the great Head of the Church bless both writer and reader, and bring them to that realm where they shall see eye to eye, and know as they are known!

THE AUTHOR'S PREFACE (From the second edition, 1869)
It is a pleasant reflection that twenty years of added experience and extended research have not materially changed the views at first expressed. The careful reexamination which we have been required to make in the preparation of the present enlarged statement, leaves not a doubt in our mind of the substantial correctness of the doctrines herein set forth. The first writing was undertaken under the inspiration, and conducted during the evolution, of an exalted experience, and amid the glow of intense zeal. The present writing is the fruit of calm study and mature and deliberate judgment. We are not aware that a single point has been relinquished or materially modified.
