About This Book

A preacher addresses undergraduates and surveys the religious and social condition of his countrymen, arguing that learning the mind of Christ is the one essential amid rapid intellectual change. He praises devout, self-denying habits such as religious reading, psalmody, and sober morals while criticizing the narrowness produced by linguistic isolation and complacent ignorance. The discourse warns against mistaking worldly success or exclusive secular study for lasting good, urges clergy to train reasoned understanding, and encourages ministers to meet modern inquiry without abandoning sincere piety or the practical virtues found in local life.
