Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Homiletics and Preaching But how much soever the ministerial office may be contemned by others; how low soever their concep tions of its authority or its source the minister himself must magnify his ofiice.' It 1s of the utmost import ance, that he entertain elevated notions both of its sanc tity and its dignity. The welfare of the people com witted to his charge, no less than the formation and maintenance of his own character requires him to be well persuaded of what dignity, and of how great import ance the office is, whereunto he has been called. Hence the stress which is laid upon it in the Ordination Service of our church. And now again, ' (observes the Bishop, whilst addressing those about to be admitted into the priestly otfice, ) we exhort you, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you have in remembrance into how high a dignity, and to how weighty an office and charge ye are called, that is to say, to be messengers, watch men, and stewards of the Lord, to teach and to pre monish, to feed and provide for the Lord's family: to seek for Christ's sheep that are dispersed abroad, and for his children who are in the midst of this naughty world, that they may be saved through Christ for ever.'

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Homiletic: Lectures on Preaching The man who, in our day, brings a new text-book on homiletic to the theological book-market, must first of all convince himself as to his justification for this step. This is not a difficult matter for the editor of the lectures of the late Professor Christlieb. After the Lord had taken away the departed theologian from the midst of his busy energy of thought and action, his sons soon felt not merely the justification, but also the obligation, of making accessible to still wider circles the fruit of his labours in the field of practical theology, in which he had exercised the greatest influence on the young generation of theological students. As, however, they themselves had not time to prepare the manuscript for publication, they turned to their friend, who, as principal of the "Johanneum" (the school for evangelists, founded by their father), had already in other ways entered into the heritage of the departed, and who felt that he could the less easily decline this work, inasmuch as he hoped to obtain from it a stimulus for his own teaching, and consequently a benefit for his school. Christlieb died at the moment when he had just begun to gather round him a larger circle of decidedly believing students of theology, who were trained by him to a more scriptural and practical conception and exercise of the preacher's office, and whose devoted activity in the Church has since given proof of the justice and usefulness of their master's teaching. Christlieb was a man of the Bible and of practical life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Preacher and His Sermon: A Treatise on Homiletics "I have examined in manuscript a proposed work on Homiletics by the Rev. J. W. Etter. The arrangement of the book is philosophical, and its style clear and animated. It is full of happy suggestions, calculated to elevate a student's views of the sacred ministry, and at the same time stimulate and instruct him. I cheerfully and heartily commend the work to students of theology, and to active pastors who desire to know more perfectly how to divide the word of truth." Rev. S. F. Upham, D. D., Professor of Practical Theology, Drew Theological Seminary. "It affords me pleasure to indorse the favorable judgment of Dr. Upham on Rev. J. W. Etter's proposed book on Homiletics. In freshness and vigor of style, and in the thorough grasp of the whole subject, it will no doubt take its place among the standard works of the time, and will command a reading not only by students and ministers, but also by intelligent laymen. It can not fail to increase the effectiveness of our rising ministry." Rev. Henry A. Buttz, D. D., President, and Professor of New Testament Exegesis, Drew Theological Seminary. "I have carefully looked over your proposed book on Homiletics, especially the introductory part on the use of a text, and am very much pleased with its direct and simple clearness. I hope you will complete it, as I think it will make a valuable text-book." Prof. James Strong, S. T. D., Professor of Exegetical Theology, Drew Theological Seminary, and Member of Bible-Revision Committee. "The outline plan and a number of chapters of the new work on Homiletics, 'The Preacher and His Sermon, ' have been before me. I have read them with interest. The arrangement is methodical, yet natural and simple, and it will be serviceable to students, ministers, and laymen. The author shows familiarity with the literature of this subject, which is voluminous, and he brings to us the most valuable conclusions from it. The style is clear. You are never left in doubt as to what the author means, and withal there is freshness of statement. It is the most suitable text-book that has yet appeared, and I doubt not will be used in this Seminary." Rev. G. A. Funkhouser, D. D., Professor of New Testament Exegesis and Homiletics, Union Biblical Seminary. "Having examined with care the outlines and several written chapters of Rev. J. W. Etter's proposed work on Homiletics, or, 'The Preacher and His Sermon, ' I can honestly say, that numerous as are works on this subject, this one promises to be the best of those that are adapted for use as a text-book in the class-room. What is taken from other books is wisely chosen and presented with skill and freshness. What is original, entirely new matter, is a valuable addition to the science of Homiletics." Rev. William H. Hornblower, D. D., Late Professor of Sacred Rhetoric, Western Theological Seminary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manual of Preaching: Lectures on Homiletics The aim of this work is, as its title indicates, mainly practical. Although chiefly designed for theological students and young ministers, yet it is hoped that the treatise may be of some service to others is the ministry, who, amidst pressing duties, may find time to look over its pages. It may be proper to state that the lectures of which the book is composed, are mainly a condensation of material that has been accumulating in the hands of the author during the twenty-five years of his connection with Chicago Theological Seminary. From year to year the lectures in this department have been abbreviated, and the practical exercises increased. Hence this work is intended to set forth and illustrate the principles and rules of Homiletics in a very brief and practical manner. Reference is usually made only to those works which are accessible and valuable to the English student. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Homiletics and Preaching, and on Public Prayer: Together With Sermons and Letters In entering on my labors as Bartlet Professor of Sacred Rhetoric in this Seminary, I found the office to be in some respects a new one, in the business of theological instruction. After an examination of the many books that have been written on Rhetoric in general, and the comparatively few that have been written on Sacred Rhetoric, it became manifest, that I must be called to traverse a field, to a considerable extent untrodden by any predecessor. One of the first difficulties which met me, as an Instructor of our Senior Class, was the want of any single work, that I was satisfied to put into their hands, as a d104-Book on Homiletics. The best thing of the kind, as far as it went, was Fenelon's Dialogues; but this little work is too limited in its range of subjects, and too desultory, as to classification of the matter which it does contain, to occupy any considerable time of students so advanced in knowledge, as our Senior Class are expected to be. This deficiency is not supplied, in any adequate manner, by Claude's Essay; - nor by the few judicious Lectures of Blair, on preaching; - nor by those of Campbell, on Pulpit Eloquence. This state of the case left me no option as to the course to be pursued. It was plainly necessary for me to adapt my instructions to the immediate necessities of my pupils, and to give them aid on those principles which they were at once to apply in practice. Hence my precepts took a systematic form, as designed to exhibit a connected view of the points which come in requisition with a theological student, just beginning to compose sermons. Next to a warm and sanctified heart, and a sound understanding, knowledge respecting his own sacred employment is necessary to make the preacher a workman that needeth not to be ashamed. No man can learn to preach by study merely. He must be taught of God, or he will never understand the gospel. - He must love Christ, or he will never feel the motives of the gospel, nor exhibit its truths in demonstration of the Spirit and with power. But neither will piety alone render him skilful and powerful in the pulpit. Besides respectable native endowments, he must have others that can result only from study. The preaching of the gospel is a science, which has elementary principles. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Men and Books: Or Studies in Homiletics; Lectures Introductory to the Theory of Preaching A thoroughly trained preacher is first a man, at home among men: he is then a scholar, at home in libraries. No other profession equals that of the pulpit in its power to absorb and appropriate to its own uses the world of real life in the present and the world of the past as it lives in books. A very essential part of a preacher's culture, therefore, concerns his use of these two resources of professional power. The large majority of the topics commonly treated by professors of homiletics as miscellanies will be found to arrange themselves naturally in these two lines of discussion. By so arranging them, I have sought to gain the concentration of unity and the cumulation of order. Like the Lectures on "The Theory of Preaching," in a former volume, these discussions retain the form and style of the lecture-room in which they were delivered, in response to the practical inquiries of students on the eve of entrance upon their lifes work. Almost no other changes have been made than those which were necessary in the mechanical revision for the press. It should be observed, respecting that portion of this work which discusses the study of books, that its design is limited.
