My aim and object!

~  ~  ~  ~

(James Smith)

My object is to lead the mind . . .

  from self--to Jesus;

  from sin--to salvation;

  from the troubles of life--to the comforts of the gospel.

My aim is . . .

  to humble the sinner--and exalt the Savior;

  to strip the creature--and place the crown on the head of God's free grace!

I cannot ascribe too much to Jesus--or too little to man!

My object has always been to keep Christ constantly before the eye, and to enforce the precepts of the Divine Word on the Lord's people--by the consideration of what Christ is to them, and has done for them--so that the love of Christ may constrain them to every good word, and every good work.
