To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
What are the doctrines of the Bi- ble, but the instructions and facts which God has revealed re- specting his character and government; respecting the character and state of man, and his duty and prospects for eternity ? And can there be virtue, or holiness without the knowledge and belief of these instructions and facts ? Are they not the main spring of a holy life, — the great and indispensable motives to good works ? Nothing can produce conviction of sin, but truth exhibited to the mind and ...fastened on the conscience. Nothing can produce holy affections, but the knowledge of holy objects. , And nothing can promote growth in grace, or prepare men for heaven, but the truth of God, apprehended by the understanding and made effi- cacious by the Holy Spirit. The most practical preaching then, is that which brings into view most of God and Christ, — of heaven 15 and hell, — which lays open and probes most deeply the moral malady of the heart, and brings to bear on the mind the greatest power of truth and motive.
