Preparation to conversion; or, Faith's harbinger. In a rare epistle, writ by a person of quality before his death, to his surviving friends. Shewing, that Satan prevails most by deception of our reason; that the beauty of holiness and true wisdom is unseen to the world: that ingrateful persons are as witless as wicked: why most men hear the Gospel year after year, and never the better: with wholsom instruction, to prevent destruction. All richly fraught with choice and pithy sentences, similitudes, examples, metaphors, rhetorical and pointed expressions. Which being thought by many worth the transcribing at no small charge, is now committed to the press.
