Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Liturgical Question With Reference to the Provisional Liturgy of the German Reformed Church: A Report One may see the importance of public liturgical worship by considering how, in its absence, even the primary and most necessary forms Of religious confession and devotion are apt to fall into disuse, and to become thus in the end as strange almost to the family and the school as they are to the church. It is not too much to saythat the Lord's Prayer itself, in such circumstances, can never be held in proper honor and use. Where the unliturgical spirit prevails, it seems to have no proper home even in the Christian sanctuary. We have Whole religious denominations, among whom its voice is scarcely ever heard in pulpit devotion. And what shall we say of the Creed, the Apostles' Creed, the Old, glorious orifiamb of Christ's sacramental host from the beginning? There, among unliturgical churches, do we find it lifted up as a standard, from Sabbath to Sabbath, in the name of the Lord? In such churches the Creed is never brought into use at all as a part of worship. Its introduction in this way would be regarded generally, indeed, as an exceptionable singularity, a novelty not to be ad mired or approved. Thus practically disowned in the sanctuary, the devotional xsymbol finds no home either in the family. It is a most significant fact.

This book was released on 2016-08-22 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WORSHIP, in the use of prescribed forms, is not a new thing in the Reformed Church. Liturgies, of some sort, have had place within it from the beginning. They belonged to its church life in Europe, and they came over with the same church life to this country. At the same time, they were held to be a fair subject all along for change and improvement. No Liturgy was considered to be of perpetual force, even for the particular country or province in which it was used; much less for other countries. The liberty of primitive times here was practically asserted, as the proper liberty of the Protestant Church. The old Swiss Liturgies in this way changed. The old Liturgy of the Palatinate became antiquated, even in the Palatinate itself. There was a movement all along, in other words, towards the realization of something in worship, which it was felt had not been fully reached in existing forms. The grossly unliturgical tendencies of later times (Rationalistic in Germany, Methodistic in this country), belonged themselves to this movement. But they had no power to bring it to rest. They only served to urge it onward in its course, by deepening the sense of a want which they had no power to satisfy, and by causing it to be felt, that the true satisfaction for this want must be sought in some other way. Hence, among the "pious desires" of the Reformed Church in America, we find at work all along, very sensibly felt, the wish for a satisfactory Liturgy. The old Palatinate service was not satisfactory; and none of the services brought over from Europe, during the last century, were satisfactory. At the same time, the deeper consciousness of the Church refused to settle into contentment with the modern innovation of totally free prayer. Such worship had, indeed, forced itself into use on all sides; but the true genius of the Church, at bottom, resented it as something foreign and strange; and its voice was still heard, though in more or less smothered accents, calling out for a Liturgy that might be worthy of the name.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Liturgy, or Order of Christian Worship This Liturgy appears under the direction of the Synod of the German Reformed Church, as being prepared and published by a Committee appointed and clothed with full powers by it for that purpose. To guard against all mistake, however, it is proper to state that the Synod has not yet given to the work, in any way, its ecclesiastical sanction or approbation. It carries with it no authority, in such form, for the churches; - nothing to make the use of it of binding obligation, in any direction. It is only a Provisional Liturgy, put forth for the purpose of meeting and satisfying, if possible, what is believed to be a growing want of the Reformed Church. No wish whatever is felt to have it brought into use, in any quarter soever, or farther, than the use of it may be really called for and desired. Years may be required to settle the question of its ultimate adoption, as an authoritative standard of worship; and the interest involved in this question is so great, that none should object to have years allowed, if necessary, for its proper determination.

Download or read book The Lord s Supper in the Reformed Church in America written by Christopher Dorn and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2007 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Lord's Supper in the Reformed Church in America: Tradition in Transformation, Christopher Dorn eloquently narrates the evolution that the celebration of the Lord's Supper has undergone in the Reformed Church in America (RCA). Building on the work of scholars who have chronicled this history in the period spanning the sixteenth through the nineteenth centuries, Dorn extends the narrative into the twentieth century. He shows how the liturgical and ecumenical movements in this century created a climate in the RCA for liturgical research and reform - a climate that stimulated its leaders to reflect seriously on the formulation of its liturgy and their understanding of its use. In the last two chapters, he convincingly demonstrates how this process led to a reconception of the nature and meaning of the celebration of the Lord's Supper.
