The Christian Advocate, Vol. 10: For the Year 1832 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from The Christian Advocate, Vol. 10: For the Year 1832

We believe that we may aflirm without reserve, that there is not an institution in the Presbyterian church which this Magazine has not advocated, nor a controverted doctrine of our standards which it has not defended, nor a dangerous innovation on our ecclesiastical order which it has not resisted, nor a benevolent enterprise of the Presbyterian body which it has not commended, and earnestly endea voured to aid and urge forward. Why then, it may still be asked, has the patronage of this work been always so much less than was expected and predicted at its commencement? To any who may be disposed to make a short answer to this inquiry, by saying that the want of talent apparent in our work, accounts at once and sufficiently for its lack of patronage, we only reply, that in this opinion we know that they who ofl'er it, differ from a good number of the best judges in our country, who are still our steadfast patrons and constant readers.
