THESE Catechetical Lectures of the late Reverend Mr. THOMAS WATSON-all but one written with his own handI have read over; and, since my testimony is desired concerning them, I do hereby declare, that though I will not undertake to justify every expression or sentence in them, or in any human writing-I find them, in the main, agreeable to the doctrinal articles of this church, and unto the Westminster Assembly's Confession of Faith and Catechisms; and I believe that, through the blessing of God, they may be profitable unto the edification of all that read them with al best desire to know and do the will of God; for certainly there are many excellent things in them, which, if they meet with a well-disposed serious mind, are very apt to have a good effect upon it; and if it prove otherwise with any that happen to read this book, it will be their own fault more than the book's.
