At first it was the author's intention to elucidate the character of the different gifts enumerated by St. Paul, as understood by eminent commentators and writers on the Bible; and then to have shown how they are viewed by Christian Spiritualists; but this design was found to be of such magnitude that the limits of this work would not admit of it. For this reason, the design was abandoned, and he now presents the simple texts, and, with few exceptions, does not quote Church authorities upon them, nor attempt any extended inquiries, but accept their meaning in the light that modern Spiritualism views them. This renders the plan of the work more simple; less controversial; and the author believes it will prove more acceptable to the general reader.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
