Excerpt from Advice to a Young Christian: On the Importance of Aiming at an Elevated Standard of Piety; By a Village Pastor; With an Introductory Essay

To the lambs of Christ's flock, whom Peter was en joined by the Good Shepherd to feed, I dedicate this little book. The letters which compose it were written to in struct one of their number, the daughter of a highly valued friend. Since they are now made public, it is the ardent prayer Of the author, that they may comfort and edify many more.

As revivals Of religion have bec'ome so frequent, and have embraced in their sanctifying influence so many youth of both sexes, these letters are given to.the public with the hope, that under'god, they may stimulate such youth to activity in the cause of Christ, and awaken a desire for those exalted spiritual attainments which it Is their object to recommend.
