Read the Introduction by Rev. Robert Maguire, D. D.

Two Great Guns

"HIGH-MIND and HEADY.—Human pride is one of the most prominent of the elements of opposition to God’s designs of mercy. It stands in the way of Divine grace; it owns no need; it acknowledges no sin; it sees no necessity for salvation. Pride resists the overtures of God’s grace, and rejects the offers of the Gospel."[2]
