LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA ADVERTISEMENT. THE original of the following letter was occasioned by the request of a friend of mine, that I would furnish him with a selection of passages from the Holy Scriptures, on that most important and interesting subject-the christian doctrine of Redemption. Since, in the course of a private circulation, the letter has been found useful to some individuals, I am induced to correct and publish it, in the hope that others, who stand in need of the same kind of information, may, through the divine blessing, derive from it a similar benefit. |
