The writer wishes to acknowledge God’s guidance and illumination while preparing the following pages.

Also his indebtedness to many clear teachers on the subject, for light received and inspiration imparted. He has aimed to present the theme simply, plainly and in a condensed form. He trusts that God may use it in this form, as He has some of it orally, to lead many hungry believers to receive the fullness of the gospel feast; and that in the hands of Christian workers it may prove a weapon to defeat error and defend the truth. He has not written for the learned and the critical, but to aid the "poor in spirit" and the "hungry-hearted," those who long for light and have been hindered from receiving the glad experience herein magnified by erroneous views in regard to it.

The Double Cure is doing so much for him and his that he is constrained to proclaim, as fully and as widely as he can, its blessedness, and that it is free for all.

He believes that all who will lay aside human standards and opinions, and be guided by the Word of God alone, will be convinced that it is the blood-bought privilege of every believer to gain and retain the experience which is here treated under the name of the Double Cure.

That the reader may thus be blessed, and God thereby honored, is the prayer of the writer. To Him be glory forever.
