Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures Delivered Before the Young Men's Christian Association, Vol. 4: 1848-49 As the following Lectures may be read by many who are unacquainted with the circumstances under which they were delivered, it has been thought desirable to supply a few words of an explanatory nature. They form the fourth course which has been delivered in connexion with the Young Men's Christian Association. The design of the Lectures may be perceived from the following fundamental rule of the Society: - "That the object of the Association be the improvement of the spiritual and mental condition of commercial young men, by the efforts of the members of the Society in the sphere of their daily calling, by devotional meetings, Biblical instruction, and mutual improvement classes, the delivery of lectures, the diffusion of Christian literature, or any other means in accordance with the Scriptures." The topics were selected entirely with a view to the interest necessary in successive addresses before a large audience. Although they are somewhat heterogeneous in a programme, yet in their design and bearing there is harmony. In the Lectures there will be found, without any sectarian bias, a distinct recognition of the leading verities and principles of the Christian faith. To bring these principles fully into the sphere of the every-day life of the young men, was the object sought by the Association.
