AN ADVERTISEMENT TO THE READER.
THis second Volume of the second Part of the Christian Life, had long since been made Publick, had it not been for an unfortunate Accident which befel me when it was almost finished, by which I was necessitated almost to begin again, and cast the whole into a different Method from what I first designed; for according to my first Draught, this second Volume had not ammounted to much above half of what it now is, only I intended to have added some Notes at the end of it, for the fuller proof and explanation of several Points therein handled, which now I am forced to leave out, the Book being already swell'd so much beyond my first Intention, only three or four of them I am forced to Print with it, because I had referr'd to them in two of the Sheets which were Printed before I new model'd the whole Design. I pray God prosper this Work, according to its honest Intention, and that will be an abundant compensation for all the Pains and Labor I have undergone in composing it.
