The Scripture speaks of certain things as being unique to certain age groups. Paul, for example, spoke of 'youthful lusts.' In this booklet, the Puritan William Bridge, a member of the Westminster Assembly of Divines, speaks of sins and temptations to which the elderly are most inclined, things such as bitterness, anger, a complaining spirit, and contentiousness, among others. The author then deals with the duties of the elderly if they would combat those sins and be pleasing to the Lord in their crowning years.
