The Hopes of the Gospel

Nothing has a more refining, purifying, exalting influence on character than holy expectation based on divine promises. Hope is the echo of the soul's noblest desires; and like any other echo, it answers you with increasing delicacy and ethereal tenderness of tone, losing more and more all coarseness and carnality.

This Volume groups together twelve discourses, whose common centre of unity is found in the various aspects of the Hopes which they present and to which they appeal.
