Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colby, Rev. John, who joined the Freewill Baptists in 1799, was born in Sandwich, N. H., December 9, 1787. When fifteen years of age his father moved to Sutton, Vt. In 1805 became a Christian and was baptized on the 8th of December. He began his labors as a preacher. Soon after he made a journey to Ohio. Arriving at Springfield, Vt., he received ordination at the hands of two ministers on the 30th of November, 1809. He then took up his journey, preaching as he went, going through New York, Pennsylvania, southern Ohio, and into Indiana, which was then a territory. He then turned about in his course, and passing through northern Ohio, and so on eastward, reached his father's home on the 6th of July, having been gone eight months. The year 1811 was spent in New Hampshire, where interesting revivals were witnessed, especially in Eaton and Meredith. In December of that year he witnessed a gracious outpouring of God's spirit in Montville, Me. He baptized eighty-eight, who with some others were organized into a church. From 1812 to 18I7 he preached in Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island. Great success attended his labors, Colby was not strong in body, when he went to New York City in March, 1817. In the fall it became necessary for him to seek a warmer climate, so he went as far south as Norfolk, Va., where he arrived the 31St of October. Twice he was carried to the church and preached. He continued to fail rapidly, and died Nov. 23, 1817. His only publication was a volume of his life down to 1815. The biography was afterwards completed by the addition of his journal, and several editions of the book have been published.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life, Experience, and Travels, of John Colby: Preacher of the Gospel To The Reader, When I first began to keep a Journal of my Life and Travels, I had no intention of publishing a scroll of it in my life time. But, when I had travelled several years, and had seen many hundreds of souls converted to God, I thought it a duty which I owed to Him, and his people, to publish a brief account of the wonderful manifestations of his goodness, and displays of his power, both to myself and others: fearing, if I did not put these things to the press myself, they might, like some other valuable writings of this nature, be neglected and never be published. And being strongly solicted by many of the lovers of Jesus, of different denominations, I prepared this first volume for the press, which contains a brief account of the first twenty-seven years, (lacking a few months) of my life. - In giving this account, I have endeavored to make use of words easy to be understood, and to avoid all exaggeration; and have labored to represent those things which I have seen and heard, as they appeared to me at the time. I have sometimes found it necessary, in great reformations, &c. to mention the particulars from day to day; while at other times, I have passed over months and years, with very few remarks.

This privilege I considered as the answer of many prayers, which I had put up to God, since I had been in the place. For I had often prayed, that God would move on the heart of the Esq. to invite me to preach at his house. The Sabbath day night before, my prayer was answered. He arose in the meeting, recommended the work of the Lord, which was going on; and wished his neighbors to embrace religion. And although he confessed he had not got religion himself, yet he said he hoped he should have it soon; and then invited me to come and preach in his house. This was indeed a thanksgiving day to many of the followers of Christ: and a day, which, I believe, will never be forgotten. I preached from Jonah, ii. 9: " But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that, that I have vowed. Salvation is of the Lord." I recited the conduct of Jonah, and compared it with that of modern hackslirlers, who, like him, acknowledged themselves to be Hebrews, (or 1.-hristians, ) and profess to fear God; but yet are going on in direct opposition to all his laws; and, as it were, opening his wounds afresh, and putting him to an open shame. The how was drawn at a venture, but God directed the arrow: for the message was set home with power, to the heart of one poor old backslider, who had professed religion in the days of his youth.---After I had done preachmg, he arose and made a very humble acknowledgement. Many others spake bold-' ly in testimony of the truth they had heard. I then requested all who felt resolved to seek and serve the Lord, to manifest it by rising up. The whole assetnbly, excepting one or two, arose like a cloud::1 solemn awe seemed to rest on the assembly. I then prayed; tnany fell on their...

Download or read book Strangers Pilgrims written by Catherine A. Brekus and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Margaret Meuse Clay, who barely escaped a public whipping in the 1760s for preaching without a license; "Old Elizabeth," an ex-slave who courageously traveled to the South to preach against slavery in the early nineteenth century; Harriet Livermore, who spoke in front of Congress four times between 1827 and 1844_these are just a few of the extraordinary women profiled in this, the first comprehensive history of female preaching in early America. Drawing on a wide range of sources, Catherine Brekus examines the lives of more than a hundred female preachers_both white and African American_who crisscrossed the country between 1740 and 1845. Outspoken, visionary, and sometimes contentious, these women stepped into the pulpit long before twentieth-century battles over female ordination began. They were charismatic, popular preachers, who spoke to hundreds and even thousands of people at camp and revival meetings, and yet with but a few notable exceptions_such as Sojourner Truth_these women have essentially vanished from our history. Recovering their stories, Brekus shows, forces us to rethink many of our common assumptions about eighteenth- and nineteenth-century American culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last decades of the eighteenth century brought numerous changes to the citizens of colonial New England. As the colonists were joining together in their fight for independence from England, a collection of like-minded believers in southern New Hampshire forged an identity as a new religious tradition. Benjamin Randall (1749ndash;1808) was one of the principle founders of the Freewill Baptist movement in colonial New England. Randall was one of the many eighteenth-century colonists that enjoyed a conversion experience as a result of the revival ministry of George Whitefield. His newfound spiritual zeal prompted him to examine the scriptures on his own, and he began to question the practice of infant baptism. Randall completed his separation from the Congregational church of his youth when he contacted a Baptist congregation and submitted himself for baptism. When Randall was introduced to the Baptists in New England, he was made aware that his theology, including God's universal love and universal grace, was at odds with Calvin's doctrine of election that was affirmed by the other Baptists. Randall's spiritual journey continued as he began to preach revival services throughout the region. His ministry was well received and he established a new congregation in New Durham, New Hampshire, in 1780. The congregation in New Durham served as Randall's base of operation as he led revival services throughout New Hampshire and Southern Maine. Randall's travels introduced him to many colonists who accepted his message of universal love and universal grace and a movement was born as Randall formed many congregations throughout the region. Randall spent the remainder of his life organizing, guiding, and leading the Freewill Baptists as they developed into a religious tradition that included thousands of adherents spread throughout New England and into Canada.
