EDIN. OF THE COMMUNITY OF THE RESURRECTION TWELFTH THOUSAND LONDON JOHN MURRAY, ALBEMARLE STREET 1899 PREFACE THERE is no plant in the spiritual garden of the Church of England which at the present moment needs more diligent watering and tending than the practical, devotional study of Holy Scripture. The extent to which spiritual sloth, or reaction against Protestant individualism, or the excuse of critical difficulties is allowed to minister to the neglect of this most necessary practice, is greatly to be deplored. It is surprising in how few parts of the Bible critical difficulties, be they what they may, need be any bar to its practical use. |
