Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Duties of a Pastor to His Church
It is proper to remark that the' pastor should preach to his people nothing but the truth. By this it is not meant that he should not introduce into his discourses any fact or principle that is not derived in definite and palpable form from the W'ord of Godf So far from it, he should be urged to lay nature, and science, and art, - the past, the present, and the future, all under contribution to the gospel. They all may be pressed legitimately into its service, and made to illustrate and enforce its truths. But he should not, as is too often done, throw truth's beauteous robe over some form of error.
