"Glorying in the Lord." By the Reverand
James Little, A. M., Windsor
Park, Belfast. Editor of "The Dayspring,"
etc. Edlnburg and London:
Oliphant, Anderson nnd Ferrler, 1912.
In his earlier ministry the Rev.
James Little, now of Belfast, llreland,
spent some years in Virginia, and was
a member of East Hanover Presbytery.
He ministered to some of our churches
and is pleasantly remembered by our
people.
His tirst book, "The Dayspring," a
collection of admlmble sermons, wa3
Issued a few years ago; and was well
received, both in Great Britain and In
this country.
He now presents to the public a
second volume of sermons under the
title of "Glorying in the Lord," for
which we predict an equally gracious
acceptance.
'Mr. Little is a true preacher of the

preaoher of the true gospel. A partial
list of his themes: "Glorying in Understanding
the Lord's Dealings Commended,"
"God the Unspotted Sun," "The
Love of Christ the Greatest of Spiritual
Forces," "Christ's Sufferings and Entrance
into His Glory," etc., is sufficient
assurance of the oh&racter of his work.
His themes are by no means hackneyed
or common place, and yet they show
that he deals with the great subjects
of Christian theology and life. He
preaches supernatural religion without
apology, hesitation or equivocation.
He never departs from "the simplicity
which is in Christ," and his readers
cannot fail to perceive that be Is ready
to "contend earnestly for the faith once
delivered to the saints." These ser
mons are In no sense controversial, but
they are loyal to "the truth as it is in
Jesus." "The Belfast Witness" is our
authority for saying that Mr. Little's
sermons in "The Dayspring" are recognized
as classics in the English language
in the successive volumes of "The
Great Texts of the Bible" series, edited
by the Rev. James Hastings, D. D. We
are sure that this second volume of sermons,
"Glorying in the Lord," will be
assigned the same distinguished place
Mr. Little's style of speech is simple
and direct, bis analysis clear and helpful,
and his illustrations fresh and appropriate.
They evince the preacher't
love for his work, show him to be 8
master sermon builder, and will prove
edifying to the serious reader. The
