Summary "The Works of Richard Hurd, Volume 6" by Richard Hurd is a collection of theological writings and sermons written in the early 19th century. This volume presents sermons delivered by Hurd at Lincoln's Inn during the years 1765 to 1776, reflecting on various biblical passages and their implications for understanding Christian doctrine and morality. Hurd, as a respected theologian and Bishop of Worcester, discusses themes such as the nature of salvation, the importance of moral law, and the role of faith in the Christian life. The opening of this volume sets the stage for exploring critical reflections on the role of ministers in the Christian faith, emphasizing their responsibility to teach both old and new truths for the benefit of their congregations. It begins with a sermon based on a passage from the Gospel of Matthew, connecting the historical context of the Jewish household with the responsibilities of Christian teachers. Hurd asserts that preachers must be prepared to address the needs of their listeners, drawing from a well of knowledge to provide spiritual guidance. This introduction hints at the depth of theological inquiry that characterizes the rest of the volume, which seeks to clarify and elucidate essential beliefs for both the clergy and laypeople alike.
