This is 100% Finney with no deletions or additions. It is from the original first edition printed in 1837. These lectures were edited and proofed from photocopies from the original book. My many thanks to Bill Mann, Michael and Pam Burns, Bob Borer, Paul J. DiBartolo, Eugene Detweiler, Sheila Rose, Daniel F. Smith, John Hempstead, Tom Shadle, Tim Brown and Ron Jensen for all their hard work.
My special thanks to Robert Wynn, who edited the whole series. Without all his hard work these lectures would not exist.
