Overview

When St. Paul wrote his Epistle to Titus about his duty as a minister, he mentioned young men as a class requiring peculiar attention. Afterspeaking of aged men and aged women, and young women, he adds this pithyadvice, "Young men likewise exhort to be soberminded" (Tit.2:6). I amgoing to follow the Apostle's advice. I propose to offer a few words offriendly exhortation to young men.

I am growing old myself, but there are few things I remember so well asthe days of my youth. I have a most distinct recollection of the joysand the sorrows, the hopes and the fears, the temptations and thedifficulties, the mistaken judgments and the misplaced affections, theerrors and the aspirations, which surround and accompany a young man'slife. If I can only say something to keep some young man in the rightway, and preserve him from faults and sins, which may mar his prospectsboth for time and eternity, I shall be very thankful.

There are four things which I propose to do: ---
I. I will mention some general reasons why young men need exhorting.
II. I will notice some special dangers against which young men need tobe warned.
III. I will give some general counsels which I entreat young men toreceive.
IV. I will set down some special rules of conduct which I stronglyadvise young men to follow.

On each of these four points I have something to say, and I pray Godthat what I say may do good to some soul.
