Excerpt from The Great Concern of Salvation The Great Concern of Salvation was not prepared for the press by its lamented author. It was originally prepared as a series of discourses to the people of Ceres parish, of which he was then minister. The former editions of the work are in the form in which it was first written, and in which it was left by the author at his decease. The present edition is re-written and abridged, for the Presbyterian Board of Publication. It is also divided into sections and chapters, and freed from many of the numerical subdivisions of former editions.
