Excerpt from Sermons on Various Occasions, and Most of Them on the Principal Subjects of Genuine Christianity, Vol. 2 Spirit, so he maintains it by causing his Spirit to con tinne with us. For as the beginning, so the continuance, of sanctification depends necessarily upon his inspiration. For as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abide in the vine, and the sap of the vine abide in it; no more can we, except we abide in Christ, and the Spirit of Christ abide in us. 'if any man do not observe this, and abide not in him, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered. Hence Christ exhorts us, Abide in me, and I in you; and, for our encourage ment, adds, He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit; and every branch in me that beareth fruit, my Father purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. The sum of the matter is this: all our wisdom in spiritual things, holiness and happiness, arise from the presence of the Spirit in us. While he continues to enlighten, sanctify, and com fort us, so long we know, obey, and are happy. But if he forsake us, (which it is not his will to do, ) all our good vanishes, and we are left the same ignorant, unholy, miserable creatures we were before.

Excerpt from The Gospel and the Age: Sermons on Special Occasions The sermons contained in this volume were preached, as their title states, on special occasions. They were selected for publication not as possessing, for that reason, any special merit, but because they were the only ones the publication of which was possible for their author. The preacher of what are called extempore sermons - that is to say, sermons not read from manuscript, but delivered from brief notes - cannot reproduce them in print unless they happen to have been taken down at the time by a reporter. Such reports can hardly ever be verbatim, and are for the most part more' or less imperfect and inaccurate. The process of revising them and of supplying their omissions, with a view to publica tion, is not an easy one, even when attempted after the lapse of a few days - still less so after that of years; and its results are rarely quite satisfactoryeither to the author or the reader. A sermon thus patched and mended has neither the freshness and point of the extempore nor the smoothness and sustained thought of the written composition. It is neither a religious speech, which the extempore sermon ought to be - nor a religious essay, which the written sermon ought to be; and it runs the risk of uniting the defects of both styles with the merits of neither. Such as it is, however, this method was the only one available for me, when, in compli ance with many and repeated requests, I employed the enforced leisure of a long convalescence in pre paring for the press those few sermons of mine which have been reported with sufficient accuracy to allow of the attempt to reproduce them in somewhat better form.
