ON The Words Spoken by our Gord FROM THE CROSS. Preached during Lent, 1879, in All Saints' Church, BY THE REV. C. B. JACKSON, A. M., Rector of Wold Newton. BIBLIOTHE AUG 82 SOULEIANA London: W SKEFFINGTON & SON, 163, PICCADILLY. 1881 100.00. / 104 THE following Sermons, or Sermonettes, were written, without thought at the time of their being published, for a weeknight congregation, of whom the larger portion were servants and labourers, in a very small village, and were also read to one or two sick and aged people not able to get to Church. Believing that they were appreciated by the flock for whom they were prepared, it has occurred to their Author that they might be of further use if read at Family Prayers some evening during Lent, where the members of the household had not the opportunity of attending special Lenten Services at Church; or if read or lent to sick people to read. In this hope they are sent out with a prayer that whatever in them is not in accordance with God's Word may be forgotten, and that whatever in them is agreeable to the same may be blessed to all who read or hear them. Wold Newton Rectory, November, 1880. |
