To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
JUSTIFICATION.
THE doctrine of justification by merits is agreeable, and seems very reasonable, so long as a man can theorize, that is, so long as he is not in earnest. But so soon as the prospect of death, or any other similar circumstance, compels him to rcali/e the act of Divine judgment upon himself, it loses all its beauty and plausibility ; the conscience is unsatisfied by its con- solations, and reason pronounces that the hope built on merits is insecure. A solemn and earnest review of o...ur past years soon convinces, that our good deeds are but few, that our best deeds arc defiled by mixed motives; and, above all, that the love of God has not been the heart's dominant principle, and that, therefore, some other mode of justification is absolutely necessary. The truth of this statement is confirmed by the inconsistency of the oral law with itself. The great principle of the oral law is, that the observance of any one of its JI'STIFICATIOX. 271 commands, purchases a certain quantity of merit, and that an accumulation of these merits will, 'at last, constitute a sufficiency ; but when the solemn season of the New Year and the Day of Atonement arrives, this sufficiency is found to be insufficient, and the alarmed conscience eagerly looks round to find something, that may compensate for the deficiency of merit.
