and toleration and peace and hope, there we can trace the influence of Christ. And, since it is more and more generally acknowledged that the progress still to be desired can only be effected upon Christian principles; since, further, the number of those who act upon these principles is continually on the increase, we are compelled to admit that the crucified Jesus has been, is being, and will yet be, the Saviour of the world.

O Christ! we feel drawn to Thee to-day. Thou hast revealed to us the value of our manhood. Thou hast taught us the beauty of holiness, the grandeur of self-sacrifice, the divinity of Love. Our lives have been illumined by the brightness of Thy glory. Thine agony has ennobled us. With thy stripes we have been healed. We thank, we praise, we love Thee.

WORKS BY PROFESSOR MOMERIE.

I.

AGNOSTICISM}

AND OTHER SERMONS.

Crown 8vo, 6s.

"To readers who do not demand that 'the scheme of salvation in its fulness' should be enunciated in every sermon, this volume which is happily free from rhetoric, and for the most part from any ostentation of the reading which it indicates, will be interesting from its acuteness, learning, and insight."-Saturday Review.

"This is a really good book. It is profound in thought, large and comprehensive in view, liberal in spirit, and delightfully clear and simple in style. We wish that theologians and philosophers in general would write in Professor Momerie's manner...... Following the chapters on Agnosticism, there are ten other chapters on the book of Ecclesiastes. They form an admirable and scholarly analysis of that strange and melancholy book."-The Inquirer.

"We are thankful for so masterly, so comprehensive, and so complete a vindication of the principles of Christian Theism, with its powerful refutation of the main positions of Agnosticism. The book meets a real and widespread need, in a style as trenchant and effective as it is popular."-Freeman.

"Dr Momerie's breadth of intellect and sympathy, his clear thinking and well-chastened style, as well as his deep religiousness, which will, no doubt, after a time assume a more positively evangelical form, eminently adapt him to be a teacher to his generation. He has freed himself, by we know not what process, from many of the prejudices of the older schools; but he can search into the very soul of unbelieving sophistry, and the spirit of his exhortation is always ennobling and heavenward."-Methodist Times.

"It is long since we have met with a volume of sermons which will so well repay a careful study."-Ecclesiastical Gazette.

"The work of a majestic intellect."-Fifeshire Journal.

II.

PERSONALITY;

THE BEGINNING AND END OF METAPHYSICS,

AND A NECESSARY ASSUMPTION IN ALL POSITIVE PHILOSOPHY.

Second Edition, revised. Crown 8vo, 3s.

"This is a little book, but it contains more sound philosophy than many pretentious treatises....... In an admirably lucid way the author scatters to the winds the baseless assumptions of the sense philosophy.”—British Quarterly Review.

"It is not often that we have to complain of the brevity of a sermon or of a treatise on philosophy; but in the case of a little book of the latter kind, recently published anonymously, we have found the arguments so cogent, the style so clear, and the matter at issue so important, that we heartily wish that the writer had allowed himself room for the fuller treatment of his subject....... We confidently refer our readers to this well-reasoned volume."Modern Review.

"Professor Momerie's remarks on the doctrines of the defenders of empiricism present a close, and thoroughly scientific, examination of the views these thinkers put forth as to the nature of sensation, perception, and cognition.......The arguments are throughout conducted with marked logical power, and the conclusions are very important in relation to the present aspect of philosophical thought in England."-Scotsman.

"We strongly recommend this book to the notice of our readers.”—Ecclesiastical Gazette.

III.

DEFECTS OF MODERN CHRISTIANITY;

AND OTHER SERMONS.

Second Edition. Crown 8vo, 5s.

"Throughout Mr Momerie's attractive little volume the morning air of the new world breathes through the dry bones of the old theology."-Westminster Review.

"Mr Momerie is perhaps one of the most vigorous thinkers and able preachers of the day.......There is an intellectuality, spirituality, and a simplicity in Mr Momerie's sermons, that should make them models for young preachers."-Christian Union.

"Whether readers agree or not in all respects with the author, they will not rise from the perusal without feeling that Christianity is something grander than they have ordinarily realised it to be, and that the Christian life is the bravest and most beautiful life possible."-Aberdeen Journal.

IV.

THE BASIS OF RELIGION}

BEING AN EXAMINATION OF NATURAL RELIGION.'

Crown 8vo, 2s. 6d.

"As a controversialist, Professor Momerie is no less candid than he is remorselessly severe."-Scotsman.

"As a revelation of the pretentiousness of that philosophy [Positivism], Dr Momerie's powerful essay is very valuable."-Fifeshire Journal.

"The result of profound study and earnest thought....... This attempt to sketch out a basis for rational theology is fitted to the needs of the times. ......Professor Momerie has won for himself a name as one of the most powerful and original thinkers of the day."-Globe.

V.

THE ORIGIN OF EVIL}

AND OTHER SERMONS.

Fourth Edition. Crown 8vo, 5s.

SOME OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

"Professor Momerie has done well to publish his sermons; they are good reading.. ...... A real contribution to the side of common-sense religion.”— Saturday Review.

"We decidedly recommend them to persons perplexed by the speculations of modern science."-Spectator.

"This is a remarkable volume of sermons. Though it consists of only about 300 pages, it contains an amount of thought and learning which might have been expanded into a bulky folio."-Glasgow Mail.

"These sermons are some of the very best produced in this country within the last hundred years."-Inquirer.

"The author is an original thinker, whose sympathies are very wide."— Guardian.

"Those who preach may learn much from their perusal."-Christian World. "Out of the common run, they give one a refreshing sense of novelty and power."-Glasgow Herald.

"Die Vorträge zeigen allenthalben eine schöne Harmonie zwischen Schriftwahrheit und Lebenswahrheit."-Deutsches Litteraturblatt.

"Der Verfasser behandelt in diesen Vorträgen wichtige Fragen aus dem Gebiet des christlichen Lebens. Wir heben besonders die über das Leiden hervor, in denen der Verfasser tiefe beherzigenswerthe Gedanken ausspricht Wir nehmen keinen Anstand, diese Vorträge zum Besten zu rechnen, was über diesen Gegenstand gesagt worden."-Christliches Bücherschatz.

"The author of the Origin of Evil' will go sadly astray if he does not make his mark on the age."-London Figaro.

"We should almost like to have heard these sermons preached. We are willing to read them carefully, and recommend them to others for like reading, even though, in almost every instance, we dissent from the author's pleading."-National Reformer.

"These sermons are everything that sermons ought not to be.”—English Independent.
