Excerpt from Lectures on Systematic Theology and Pulpit Eloquence The excellence of Fenelon's Dialogues concerning Eloquence, their general agreement with the sentiments of Dr. Campbell's Lectures, and their more ample discussion of certain topics con nected with preaching, render their insertion in this volume quite appropriate. These Dialogues Dr. Doddridge has called incom parable dialogues ou eloquence; which, ' he remarks, 'may God put it into the hearts of our preachers often and attentively to read.'

Excerpt from Lectures on Systematic Theology In many respects Mr. Pinney's theological and moral system will be found to differ both from the Calvinistic and Arminian. In fact, it is a system of his own, if not in its separate portions, yet in its con struction; and as a whole is at least unique and compact; a system which the Author has wrought out for himself, with little other aid than what he has derived from the fount itself of heavenly truth, and his own clear and strong perception of the-immutable moral principles and laws by which the glorious Author of the universe governs all his intellectual creatures. There is one circumstance that will recommend the volume, and ought to recommend it, to' impartial inquirers who are not bound to the words of any master save their Divine one it is, that the Author in his youth was trained in none of the theological schools of his country, and had imbibed, therefore, no educational preference for one system more than another. He had been disciplined to argumenta tion, logic; and the laws of evidence, in a very different arena; and had advanced in the science of the Law before he had felt the truth of Christianity, or thought of studying its doctrines. His views, there fore, will be found more deserving of attention and examination, from the fact of his mental independence in the formation of them.

"Do as I say, not as I do." It is not only parents who fail to model instructions for their children, but also teachers of preaching. Robert Lewis Dabney was a nineteenth-century Presbyterian theologian who taught theology and preaching at Union Theological Seminary in Virginia prior to and after the United States Civil War. He is remembered for his powers as a systematic theologian, his defense of southern Christianity, and his life-long racism. A formidable theologian and respected teacher of preachers, Dabney's Sacred Rhetoric (1870) poised him to influence a generation of young preachers to devote themselves to verse-by-verse expository preaching through books of the Bible. Yet Dabney failed, instead equipping his students to preach--and modeling for them--topical sermons preached on mere fragments of text, often without context. Empty Admiration traces Dabney's thought and action from his preaching theory to his classroom instruction to his personal practice, revealing a man at odds with himself, whose students--not unlike children--preached as Dabney preached, not as Dabney said.
Excerpt from Lectures on Christian Theology On opening a book we naturally feel a desire to know something of the author; and if he treats on controverted points, to know on what principles he wrote, and with whom he stood connected. I shall endeavour to satisfy this cu riosity, by giving some account of the school of Biblical Theology \in Germany, to which our author belonged, together with an outline of his life and character. I cannot expect, however, Within the narrow limits of a preface, to do full justice to either of these subjects.
