PREFACE

 

OF the many Sacred Biographies I have written, this has been by far the most interesting. For days and weeks together I have lived in the company of this glorious man; but only to feel that he transcended all one's loftiest conceptions. Like some great mountain range, the more his character is traversed, the more it grows on the imagination.

 

In these chapters I have used the Epistles more largely than the Acts, as I desired to describe his life from within, and as it appeared to himself. In many cases, therefore, the historical has been subordinated to the auto-biographical.

 

I have taken advantage of some of the latest books which have dealt with this subject; but for the most part the following pages contain the essence of years of my own thinking and preaching. Such as they are, I send them forth, trusting that they may incite many to follow Paul as he followed CHRIST; and to yield themselves, as he did, to GOD.
