Excerpt from The Bible Doctrine of Devotion

This little book is written by re quest. It is for Christians, and seeks to emphasize the scriptural teaching of devotion. By devotion, we mean the right attitude of the whole life toward God. To those who have put the cross between themselves and their sins and are now living on the Godward side of the cross, it aims, by calling atten tion to a number of passages of scrip ture, to lengthen, broaden, heighten, and deepen the spiritual life. Its claim is not that of unfolding doctrine, but inspiring devotion - the devotion of the Whole life to Him whose we are and whom we serve.

The author once heard, on the same day, two distinguished, representative men. After hearing them, he asked himself the question, What have they inspired in me? After hearing the first, he said. I want to be a better preacher. After hearing the other, he said, I want to be a better Christian.
