Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The People's Church Pulpit The Congregationalist, printed at Boston, gave the following account of the religious services at the opening, and not the dedication, of the People's Church, in its issue of February 21. "The 'People's Church' in this city was, for some reason, the hardest to dedicate of which we ever heard. It seems to have taken one day more than a week." Remembering how frequently persons "do err, not knowing the Scriptures," the pastor of the church took the precaution to provide against his being charged like the Athenians, with spending his time in announcing "some new thing," by printing within a scroll on the cover of the programmes, which he confidently believed would arrest the attention of every person receiving one of them, the following, found in the thirty-ninth verse of the twenty-third chapter of the third book of Moses, called Leviticus: - "Ye shall keep a feast unto the Lord seven days. On the first day shall be a Sabbath, and on the eighth day shall be a Sabbath." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

They are worthy Of the man, Of his Church, Of his many friends, and of a place on the table Of all, laymen and preachers. They who read will say, Why is the volume not double its present size?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Last Words in the Pulpit I propose to glance at the past history Of that social in stitution known as the church, for the purpose of ascertain ing through what forms, and by what processes, it has reached its present condition; and also that we may with approximate precision forecast what its future will be. To accomplish this purpose with thoroughness - that is to enter into all the details of church history, to analyze closely and accurately the present status of the church, and then to picture with anything approaching to particu larity the future which lies before it - would be a task calling for the space Of many volumes, and requiring for its performance the learning of the historian, the passion Of the scientist, and the imagination of a prophet. Let me, then, disallow at once any such ambitious and weari some project. Instead of entering into all this infinite variety of detail, I would simply pass before you, with panoramic swiftness, the salient features which suggest themselves as one thinks of the past, the present, and the future of the church. My excuse for calling your thought to this theme, if any excuse is needed, is found in the fact that in the progress of thought upon so-called religious subjects, the divine institution of the church has been called in question, and its value as a constructive and formative instrumentality has been thrown into debate.

Download or read book The Fruit of the Spirit and Other Sermons from a Greylock Pulpit Classic Reprint written by Alford Brown Penniman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-22 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fruit of the Spirit and Other Sermons From a Greylock Pulpit Most of these sermons were delivered between january and June of eighteen hundred and ninety-seven. They first appeared in a weekly publication called A Greylock Pulpit. It seems fitting to give a few reasons which led to their publication. Surrounded with machinery for what is known as Institutional church work, I desired to make emphatic the inspiration which belongs to the living Word. Having already in use a sufficiently elaborate order of worship, multiplied organizations, a parish house with gymnasium and amusement rooms, a young men's literary society, all splendid channels for energy; the pulpit as a herald may speak to the indifferent life of the community and induce interest by means of the impersonal page. In the half-hour or more given to the sermon, there is much condensation, which is not in vain. If opportunity for review be given the people from week to week. I saw a further reason in the good chance to revive old friendships. One who has changed his residence, the old homestead for the college, the college for the world, one church, town or country for another, what ever his gain, must keenly feel the loss of separation. Perhaps my ser mons may prove a long, rough pole, by which I shall still save drowning friendships. Please note that the series was not christened The, but A Grey lock Pulpit. The title was given me by Greylock Mountain itself. The base begins beneath my study and the mountain rises to a height of four thousand feet of beauty and strength. On a clear day at least four states, New York, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts and perhaps Connecticut can be seen from this summit. Greylock is Berkshire's Mount Zion. If mountaineers are always freemen, mountain preach ers ought to be free preachers. This Taconic mountain has been the object of much contention among geologists. However, their polemic was of the last decade. Theological strife is happily passing, and the church of today has earnestly begun to study sociology. Greylock has lately been made a type by geologists. The churches of our valley are slowly conforming to a higher ideal. Again Greylock is a deposit, not the result of volcanic action like the lower and opposite Hoosac range. The Greylock message therefore is that our social changes ought to be educational and gradual rather than fierce and revolutionary.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pulpit Committee Undeniably one of the most difficult problems in the practical affairs of denominations organized under a democratic form of church government re lates to the settlement Of pastors. Many men think it the weakest spot in congregational church polity. At present there is no universally accepted method of procedure and no standard code in accordance with which the negotiations between committee and candidate are conducted. TO this cause may reasonably be attributed the frequent misunderstandings and the many heartaches which increase the already keen dissatisfaction with hap hazard ways.

Download or read book The Calvary Pulpit written by Robert S. Macarthur and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Calvary Pulpit: Christ, and Him Crucified With a few exceptions, the sermons in this volume were preached in the Old Calvary Church on Twenty third Street, and most of them in the earlier years of the author's ministry. The reason for limiting the selection to this period is, that another volume containing sermons preached in later years, and some of them Within a few months, will soon be published. Not without reluctance are the anniversary sermons introduced but it was the earnest wish of many friends, both of the earlier and the later ministry, that the first sermon Of the pastorate and the fourth and the tenth anniversary sermons should be included. The last two named, it was thought, apart from their interest to the friends of the church, would be Of interest in wider circles, because Of their discussion Of some methods of church work. The last three in the volume were preached in the new church they are given, as is also the last one preached in the Old church, because of their relation to the history of the removal from the Old to the new house of worship and field of labor.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pulpit Tested: A Sermon Delivered at the Centennial Anniversary of the Congregational Church in Great Barrington, Dec. 23, 1843 Iwhen we wish to make our thoughts touch the heart, we borrow aid from scenes of distress. He who should paint the moth er fainting and sinking down on the rock, as her only son sank under the billows to rise no more, would understand human nature. Could the last shriek of agony which came from the drowning child be also painted, the picture would be more complete. The mournful songs of Jeremiah, which flowed from his harp while his land was in ruins, are full of what is tender, and simple as infancy. Oh! That my head were waters and mine eyes a fountain of tears, that I might weep day and night for the slain of the daughter of my people.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dedham Pulpit: Or, Sermons by the Pastors of the First Church in Dedham, in the Xviith and Xviiith Centuries; With a Centennial Discourse by the Present Pastor This volume contains a complete collection of the Sermons published by the Ministers of the First Church in Dedham from 1638 to 1800. It is a humble tribute to our successors, who may celebrate the next Centennial Anniversary in this church. As historical documents, they arc of some value. As exhibiting the spirit and principles of the Fathers, with their style of preaching, they are precious memorials. In several of our early churches, as Plymouth, Salem, Charlestown, Boston, Cambridge, Roxbury and Dorchester, it would be easy to collect a volume, greater in extent and more rich in intrinsic worth. This hint may be useful. If this volume should contribute, in any degree, "to turn the heart of the fathers to the children and the heart of the children to their fathers," it will amply compensate for the labor and expense. To recover such documents from dust and oblivion is a task, which some future age will more justly appreciate. An Indian relic, which the ploughman covers with his furrow, will yet be gazed at with a curious eye. Centennial Discourses are now frequent. The settlement of colonics, the incorporation of towns, the institution of churches, and the occurrence of important events, are commemorated.

This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sermons, Prayers, and Pulpit Addresses Who it was that penned the ms. There is no means of knowing, nor is it likely that this will ever be discovered. Most probably he was a resident in St Andrews. But whoever he was, he appears to have executed his task, (if that can be called a task, which seems to have been a labour of love, ) with exemplary fidelity and accuracy. That he was an ardent admirer of Henderson there can be no doubt, and we may fairly enough conjecture that he was led to wait on his ministry at this time, and take down everything that fell from his lips, even to his very prayers, by a sense of the supreme importance of his public utterances at such a crisis in the history of the church and kingdom of Scotland. Judging from the character of the MS we should say that this unknown person was a man of intelligence and educa tion, though not deeply skilled in the learned tongues.

They are, in every respect, worthy of the re cognition I have given them. Indeed, they deserve greater praise. There are others in the Conference, however, equally deserving; but it was not possible to include sermons from all of them in one volume. Farther on, it is hoped, another similar volume may be given to the public. No two of the sermons, herein contained, are upon the same topic. It is not often, there fore, that such a variety of interesting themes are discussed in one volume. I hazard noth ing in saying that whoever reads these dis courses, will not only find them profitable, but will find them agreeable and interesting, as well.
