                     SERMONS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS.

                            To the READER.

1. I HAVE had a desire for several years, if God should spare me
a little longer, to print in one collection, all that I had before
published in separate tracts. (I mean all the PROSE, except the _Notes
on the Bible_, the _System of Philosophy_, the _Christian Library_,
and the _Books_ which were designed for the use of _Kingswood School_.)
These I wanted to see printed together; but on a better paper, and with
a little larger print than before.

2. I wanted to methodize these tracts, to range them under proper
heads, placing those together which were on similar subjects, and in
such order, that one might illustrate another. This it is easy to see
may be of use to the serious reader, who will then readily observe,
that there is scarce any subject of importance, either in practical or
controversial divinity, which is not treated of more or less, either
professedly or occasionally.
