The Marys Or The Beauty Of Female Holiness PDF Download

Excerpt from The Marys: Or, the Beauty of Female Holiness This closet manual has a twofold peculiarity. It is addressed exclusively to F e males; because the author believes that general appeals on the subject of Sin and Holiness are not Well adapted to the conscience of the sex, nor so faithful as they seem. Its style, too, is occasionally peculiar; because he thinks that parable and allegory are legitimate weapons in the defence of the Gospel. He has, therefore, attempted to give Oriental forms to old truths, Whenever he found it difficult to say, in ordinary language, all that he Wished to suggest to the female mind. He has also given that prominence to the beauty of holiness, Which it has in Scripture, in common with the nature and necessity of holiness. This plan and purpose will be adhered to in the succeed ing volumes of the lady's closet library. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
