The Christian Spectator on Happiness and Faith

A 1799 reflection argues true, lasting happiness cannot come from sin or worldly success. It upholds true religion as the sole refuge, citing Hob Grotius and John Wick as contrasts, and emphasizes repentance, faith in Jesus Christ, and the Gospel as the path to rest for the guilty soul. The piece urges diligent study of Christian records and warns against relying on wealth, learning, or honor for final contentment.

He warns that indiscriminate reading fosters vanity, falsehoods, and confusion between vice and virtue, urging guidance to cultivate taste and virtue for a disciplined mind. The piece reflects on infidelity, political reading, and the dangers for youth without a preceptor.
