About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1835.

One important consequence of exposing the false spirituality of the mystic writers, will, it is hoped, be to increase our value for the Scripture doctrine of the Holy Spirit in all its fulness; and especially to raise in our estimation the blessing of that indwelling of the Comforter in the hearts of believers in Jesus, which is their exalted privilege, and the earnest of their future inheritance . The mind of man is so constituted as to need some religious system, and, when ignorant of Revelation, is prone to attempt to explain that which is connected with the unseen world. Formed with a soul designed for communion with its Creator, but now alienated from the chief good of his existence, he pants after that which is not yet possessed; is attracted by whatever is mysterious j though, at the same time, awed by the apprehension of unseen Power. Hence, in an early age of the world, the contemplative portion of mankind in the wide regions of the East, had framed theories to explain the origin of evil, and other mysterious and incompresible subjects. They considered matter, in every form, the source of evil; and, consequently, imagined man's liability to sin to proceed from his connexion with a body of material structure. The soul, on the contrary, they regarded as a portion of Divinity--a spark of eternal light, confined, as in a prison, in a body of flesh...
