Excerpt from The Wondrous Cross, and Other Sermons "From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day. Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying. Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee. But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men." - Matt. xvi.21-23. In the religion of the Parsees there are two supreme beings: Ormuzd, "the Good," creator and sustainer of all things bright and helpful; and Ahriman, "the Black," who presides over the regions of darkness, evokes the malignant passions, and stands sponsor for war and sorrow, disease and death. These two are perpetually arrayed against each other, the gage of conflict being the dominion of this world. It is like a stupendous game of chess, in which wars and truces, the convulsions of nature, and the ups and downs of history, are as the moves of pawns and castles upon the board. It is impossible to say how long the game will continue, or what the issue will be, inasmuch as the contestants are coeval and coequal. Perhaps it will go on forever. We also believe in two great powers who contend for the sovereignty of this world, but they are not coequal. One is infinite; the other - though of immense guile and resource - is finite.

Excerpt from The Preaching of the Cross: And Other Sermons The following sermons were written by the late Dr Crawford when he was one of the ministers of St Andrew's Church, Edinburgh. With the exception of the one preached before the Society for Propagating Christian Knowledge, they were not revised by him for publication; but the others also will be found to bear undoubted marks of that ability and thoroughness which characterised all he did. They are now published at the desire of members of his former congregation, and of some of his old friends and students, who believe that they will tend to impress on the hearts of many the precious truths he so earnestly commended, and will prove an acceptable memorial of one who was not more honoured for his high talents and varied attainments, than he was beloved for his many Christian virtues and for his warm attachment to the faith "once delivered to the saints." Dr Crawford held a high place among the ablest preachers of the Gospel in our National Church. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
