Neglect of the Doctrine of the Resurrection

ONE remark I cannot help making: The doctrine of the resurrection appears to have been thought of more consequence among the primitive Christians than it is now. How is that? The apostles were continually insisting on it and exciting the followers of God to diligence, obedience, and cheerfulness through it. And their successors in the present day seldom mention it. There is not a doctrine in the gospel on which more stress is laid, and there is not a doctrine in the present system of preaching which is treated with more neglect.—Adam Clarke.
