"If religious books are not widely circulated among the masses in this country, I do not know what is going to become of us as a nation. If truth be not diffused, then error will be. If God and His Word are not known and received, the devil and his works will gain the ascendancy. If the evangelical volume does not reach every hamlet, the pages of a corrupt and licentious literature will. If the power of the gospel is not felt throughout the length and breadth of this land, anarchy and misrule, degradation and misery, corruption and darkness will reign without mitigation or end."—Daniel Webster

Learning in Christ's School

Ralph Venning

'Babes', 'little children', 'young men', and 'fathers' form the 'classes' in the school of Christ which Ralph Venning describes in these pages.  These he presents as the stages in the renewal of human life leading up to the 'academy of heaven'.  We find them referred to in I Corinthians 3:1-2; Hebrews 5:12-14 and I John 2:12-14.

The several degrees or states through which Christians pass to the measure and stature of the fullness of Christ are here insisted upon and clearly explained, according to the rule of faith and with great experience.

The greatest part of the discourse concerns those that make up the greatest part of true Christians: the weak ones, or babes.  Here will be found things of a comforting character, which will contribute much to their establishing and promote their advance to a greater degree of grace, till they come to the assurance of the love of God by the witness of the Spirit which the children enjoy.  What is laid down in reference to the witness of the Spirit, some may differ with in their conceptions.  Yet the author's caution against delusions are such that no person will have a reasonable ground to make any exceptions.
