Download or read book Helps for the Pulpit Or Sketches and Skeletons of Sermons Classic Reprint written by Hugh Black and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Helps for the Pulpit, or Sketches and Skeletons of Sermons The design of this volume is to assist ministers in their prepara tions for preaching the Gospel of Christ. Hence its title is, Helps for the Pulpit. The greater part of the Outlines have been the guide of the Author in his public ministrations; and he believes that they were not only delivered with pleasure to himself, but also, through Divine influence, made a blessing to some who heard them. The sermon itself generally occupied from three-quarters of an hour to one hour in the delivery; but some of the Outlines will not take more than ten minutes to read them, and the others rather less. The preface or introduction to each discourse is generally short, blanks being introduced there, and also throughout each Outline, to indicate room for amplification. The Author has, in most cases, endeavored to preserve unity of design respecting the subject of the text, and to make the divisions natural and striking.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lamps of the Temple: Crayon Sketches of the Men of the Modern Pulpit But, while speaking thus respectfully of the pulpit of the present age, we may also say, that we do not distri bute our praise equally over all the pulpit teachers for some, indeed, we can feel but a small measure of respect. The whole of the worth of the pulpit is jeoparded by the conduct of men, who strangely forget the character of modern intelligence, and the width and depth of modern information; the supercilious sneer, the currish, barking, dogmatic tone of some, is known to us; men there are, who fancy that their being set apart to a sacred office is a diploma and warranty for the treat ment of all persons not in the ministry with insolence and disrespect. Then we have elegant lackadaisical ness, - oh, how many a head more remarkable for the hair upon it, than for the brains within it! How few have found their way to the pulpit from an irrepressible and earnest calling, as it was denominated of old! How few have felt the glorious agonising determination to Speak the words of truth to their fellow-men at all hazards! How few have been impelled by yearnings of supernatural import, by sympathies of awful depth! Is it too much to say, that vanity, that idleness, that the idea of a life of literary elegance, have frequently more to do with the selection of the pulpit for a profession, than the convictions of the littleness of Time, and the vastness of Eternity?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pulpit and Press Nevertheless, there is a thought higher and deeper than the edifice. Material light and shade are temporal, not eternal. Turning the attention from sublunary views, however enchanting, think for a moment with me of the house wherewith they shall be abundantly satisfied, even the house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. With the mind's eye glance at the direful scenes of the war between China and Japan. Imagine yourselves in a poorly barricaded fort, fiercely besieged by the enemy. Would you rush forth single-handed to combat the foe? Nay, would you not rather strengthen your citadel by every means in your power, and remain within the walls for its defense? Likewise should we do as metaphysicians and Christian Scientists. The real house in which we live, and move, and have our being is Spirit, God, the eternal harmony of infinite Soul. The enemy we confront would overthrow this sublime fortress, and it behooves us to defend our heritage. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pulpit Studies: Or Aids to Preaching and Meditation If to mark the origin of nations, the rise and fall of empires, the events which agitate states and overthrow kingdoms, be a pleasant study, must it not yield equal gratification to mark the commencement of time, and to trace all the families of the earth back to their first progenitor, since his life is so intimately connected with the state of the world around us, with our intellectual, moral, and social nature, our eternal destiny, and more especially with that plan of redemption on which all our hopes are founded ? His life is full of interest, in comparison of which the achievements of the most illustrious persons, and the events of the most remarkable epochs in history, dwindle into insignificance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Memoirs of a Preacher, or the Mysteries of the Pulpit Then the curtain rises, and this Drama which. Is too improbable for fiction displays its varied and crowded scenes. One side of Chesnut street is wrapt in sha dow; the other rests in the light of the rising moon. The marble pile, which stands near Independence Hall, rises grandly into the se rene sky, like a vast palace of ice and snow. From the hundred windows of yonder edifice, as many glimpses of fireside light, steal out upon the snow, and mingle with the rays of the moon. Suddenly the scene is thronged by crowds of well-dressed men and women, who are hurrying to the various Churches of the Great City, their dark attire strongly con treated with the white mantle which over spreads the street. The Lawyer has forgot his quibbles for awhile, the Merchant his Day? Book, the sleek Quaker his deeds and ground rents, the lady of fashion, her last shawl or lover, and all are hurrying to the worship of the - Lord! What Lord!

Flash Thy truth upon all our hearts and minds, help us in hearing and in speaking, bless us each as we severally require, receive our thanks for the individual and private blessings which we each possess, and for the universal gift which we each may have - the unspeakable gift of God in Jesus Christ. Hear us, we pray Thee, and grant us Thy presence and help now, for our Saviour Christ's sake. O Lord, we thank Thee that Thou hast, in some measure, drawn back the veil, and shown us the things which are at Thy right hand. And we beseech Thee to help each of us, so long as we tarry here below, that we may press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
