RECOMMENDATIONS.

THE character and writings of Dr. BELLAMY, have been deservedly held in high estimation by the Churches in New. England, and by many friends of Evangelical truth in other parts of the Christian world. His ability to illustrate the truths of the Gospel, and to trace them through all their connexions and dependencies, and to impress them on the conscience and heart, has been possessed by few.

We consider him as one of the most distinguished and useful writers of the last age. And while men are found eager rather to obtain elevated views of the Gospel and Kingdom of Christ, and the feeling of enlightened and sublime devotion, than to gratify a mere literary taste, the writings of Dr. Bellamy will never be neglected. They appear to us eminently calculated to promote the knowledge of God in the world, and to make men wise, good, and happy.

« I HAVE read Dr. Bellamy's writings with great attention, profit, and pleasure ; and do hereby with great satisfaction, most cheerfully recommend them to the public in general, and to Christians of every denomination in particular, as calculated to detect error and delusion, to exhibit and enforce the pure and distinguishing doctrines of the Gospel-to direct inquiring souls

to comfort, establish, and edify experienced Christians in the truth and to promote practical piety and godliness.

Extract from a review of Dr. BELLAMY'S “ True Religion De

lineated,” in the London Evangelical Magazine, “ The value of Dr. BELLAMY's writings is already well known to the religious world: but we are obliged to the Rev. AnDREW FULLER for his history and recommendation of this work: whick, we hope, will introduce it to those persons who are yet unacquainted with it. The Author's leading object is, to discriminate between the Law and the Gospel : and to define and illustrate the duties which they respectively require. We hope that the circulation of this volume will be as extensive as its contents are interesting and important; and that STUDENTS of DIVINITY especially, will avail themselves of the information which it contains."
