Wilberforce's classic work, A Practical View of Christianity, is concerned with convincing those who call themselves Christians to pursue "the real nature and principles of the religion which they profess."? Christianity is not a mere morality, to be held in private - it is revelation from God, bringing new rights and correspondent duties. It is an entire way of life that requires diligence and study and should affect every aspect of the Christian's public and private life.
"This splendid new edition of William Wilberforce's classic work... deserves to be read as eagerly today as it was by the thousands of Londoners who made it an immediate best-seller nearly two centuries ago. Its author... is now largely forgotten. His message, however, is as fresh and relevant for readers today as it was for his contemporaries in late eighteenth-century England."?
