LECTURES, SERMONS, AND WRITINGS OF THE LATE REV. LACHLAN MACKENZIE, LOCHCARRON. Edited by James Campbell, Inverness: “Courier” Office, Inverness.
Mr James Campbell, 6 Ardross Place, Inverness, has really done good work by publishing these most valuable remains of the late Rev. Lachlan Mackenzie. These lectures, etc., are, like every other composition of Mr Lachlan’s, clear as to statement of Scripture doctrine, as sound as gold as to exposition, and as to practical theology they are the very thing required in our day. He makes, throughout, a very clear distinction between true godliness and its counterfeits, and establishes his conclusion in each case by examples drawn from the fountain of all truth—the Bible. This book is so valuable that, in our opinion, none should lose the opportunity of having a copy of it. We value it as being equal to the writings of that famous servant of God, the Rev. Thomas Boston. The price is as low as the expense of printing and publishing allowed. There is no profit accruing to Mr Campbell from it. Its price is 3s; by post 6d extra.—N. C.
