Excerpt from Death Into Life, or Twenty Years of My Ministry
One object in writing this book is to warn and instruct earnest-minded souls, who are, as I was once, strangers to the experience of salvation, seeking rest where I am sure they can never find it, and labouring to do good to others when they have not yet received that good themselves. They are vainly building from the top trying to live before they are born; to become holy before they have been justified and to lead others to conversion before they have been converted themselves.
A second object is - to draw the attention of every earnest, seeking, or anxious soul, to consider the Lord's marvellous goodness in first bearing with me in my religious wanderings, and then using me for His glory in the sal vation of hundreds.
Another desire I have is - to cheer the hearts of believers who are working for God, by relating to them what He has done through me, and can do again, by the simple preaching of the Gospel. Here the reader will meet with narratives of the Lord's work in individual cases, in congregations, and in parishes - wonderful things which are worthy of record.
I have not shunned to tell of the mistakes I fell into after my conversion, h0ping that others may take heed and profit by them; and then I shall not have written in vain.
