Godliness : being reports of a series of addresses delivered at James's Hall, London, W. during 1881

The volume gathers a series of impassioned sermons presented in London’s James’s Hall in 1881, spoken by a keen and outspoken advocate for earnest Christianity. Though originally delivered extemporaneously, the addresses have been carefully recorded to preserve their vivid urgency and moral clarity. Listeners will hear a voice that blends pastoral compassion with a fierce call to personal transformation, aiming to ignite a revival in the hearts of believers.

The early talks confront common spiritual pitfalls, beginning with a sharp critique of hollow repentance and a warning against a merely intellectual trust in the gospel. Subsequent sermons explore what true saving faith looks like, urging a deeper alignment of heart and law, and then turn to the nature of authentic charity that moves beyond sentiment to concrete action. Throughout, the speaker’s conviction is clear: a disciplined, heartfelt devotion to God is the surest path to lasting renewal.
