MEMORIAL OF NATHANIEL MILTON WOOD, WITH SERMONS. EDITED BY NATHANIEL BUTLER. LEWISTON, ME. GEO. A. CALLAHAN, PRINTER. 1877 B92 485 "We are passing away. The places that now know us shall soon know us no more. But when we are dead we shall not be all dead. Our shadows will not die with us. Nay, on many hearts they may fall with mightier power than while we live."-Dr. Wood's Sermon on Moral Shadows. 720 943 PREFACE. THE Sermons contained in this volume, with the exception of the first, were not prepared for publication, and are printed as they were left by their author, with only such alterations as were necessary to prepare them for the press. The Sermon on The Christian Alternative is printed as it appeared as an Article in the Baptist Quarterly; and that on The Relation of the Divinity of Christ to the Atonement as it was prepared and read as an Essay before the Illinois Baptist Minister's Institute. All the Sermons now published are not regarded the best that were written by Dr. Wood: some of them appear at the request of his personal friends, who remember them with great satisfaction, and desire to possess them in the form in which they are now given. The Editor acknowledges his obligations to the REV. WASHINGTON LEVERETT, LL. D., the REV. J. |
