Excerpt from The Fundamental Truths of the Christian Religion, Vol. 25: Sixteen Lectures Delivered in the University of Berlin During the Winter Term 1901-2 The present volume consists of a series of sixteen lectures which I delivered in the University of Berlin, before students of all Faculties. From the fourth German edition the work has been translated into English by a former hearer of mine, Rev. George E. Thomson, Aberdeen. In its new dress and among new people, I wish the book as attentive readers as it has found in Germany, for the task it sets itself is certainly worthy of the reflection of all. Everywhere in our day we are confronted by the great task of preserving Christianity to the modern mind. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
