Excerpt from Sermons That Have Helped
If I have ever spoken a word that had help in it for souls in trouble; for human beings in difficulty, doubt, perplexity or danger; for men and women who were honestly looking for the light; I have spoken it in my sermons.
I have been told that they have helped; and for that reason I am publishing some of them, hoping that their helpfulness may be thereby extended.
They may not be classed among the sermons that have greatly enriched the world's storehouse of learning or of eloquence; they contain nothing particularly new. They are not especially controversial, nor argumentative; but they do aim to tell the truth in the hearing of men's consciences and affections; for it is my deep conviction not only that the truth shall make us free, but that men are asking to-day, with a better motive than Pilate's, "What is truth?" I have sought to show that the true answer is in Him who claims the allegiance of every human heart, and I rest His claim upon His own convincing power who declares, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life;" and promises: "I, if I be lifted up, will draw all men unto me."
