Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical Dictionary of Ministers and Preachers of the Welsh Calvinistic Methodist Body The material of this volume has been gathered together and placed in order by the writer from the interest he has taken in Welsh Calvinistic Methodism and its Ministers from his childhood. His earliest recollections are interwoven with Methodist history. The home of his parents was always open to the public servants of the Lord who came to Brecon on their preaching itinerancies in connection with this section of His vineyard, and thus Calvinistic Methodism became a fascination to him early in life. His recollection is fairly vivid of many of the ministers who preached at the Struet Chapel, Brecon, about the year 1837 and onward, especially of those who were members of the Breconshire Monthly Meeting, such as Watkin Edward, William Havard, Thomas Elias, Evan Harries, Job Thomas, David Davies, Trecastle, and John Griffiths, who afterwards became a Clergyman, ind lived for some years near Pontypridd. He is one of the few still living who were present at the opening of Trevecca College, and remembers well many incidents in connection therewith. It occurred to the writer some time since that a volume such as this, would be interesting to many, and would serve to keep in remembrance the names of some worthy men who had served their Master and Methodism well, but who would otherwise be forgotten, and are indeed already little known. His chief regret is that so many of the preachers have passed away with little or nothing more than their names recorded. Doubtless several are omitted from this work who should have been included, and possibly more definite information might be given of others than the writer has been able to supply.

Excerpt: ...Harris at Trefecca, and was an enthusiastic supporter of his cause. He was reckoned among the good and faithful in Israel. The present Rev. Isaac Jones, Nantglyn, is his grandson, and like him he was quaint in his conversation and preaching. He would soon get on good terms with his audiences by his pleasant homely humour. Jones, Mr. John (junior), Penrhyn, Llaniestyn, Lleyn. His father was of the same name and place, and like him also a preacher with the Methodists. He travelled considerably both in North and South Wales for many years, and was known in the latter district as John Jones of Lleyn. He began to preach in the year 1781. Jones, Mr. John (senior), Penrhyn, Llaniestyn, Lleyn, was one of the first preachers in the part of the country where he lived. He was one day seized by the press gang because of his preaching practices. After he was caught the gang went to Tyddyn-Mawr, a farm house which was known to be a hiding-place of the Roundheads, as the Method ists were called, in search of another preacher named Evan Williams. Whilst they were in the house carrying on their search, John Jones quietly stole away, and escaped. At the time of the rupture between Harris and Rowland he sympathised with the former, and for a time resided with him at Trevecca, and continued ever after to cherish very high thoughts of him. His son, who was known as John Jones, of Lleyn, was a well-known preacher both in North and South Wales. Jones, Mr. John, Rehoboth, Llanberis, Carnarvonshire, died June 4th, 1844, aged 27 years, having been a preacher for about six years. At the time of his death he was residing at Clynog with Eben Fardd, with whom he was in school. He was a young man ct gentle disposition, and knit to himself every one with whom he came in...
Download or read book Historical Dictionary of the Reformed Churches written by Benedetto and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 1999-11-03 with total page 1122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As its name implies, the Reformed tradition grew out of the 16th century Protestant Reformation. The Reformed churches consider themselves to be the Catholic Church reformed. The movement originated in the reform efforts of Huldrych Zwingli (1484-1531) of Zurich and John Calvin (1509-1564) of Geneva. Although the Reformed movement was dependent upon many Protestant leaders, it was Calvin's tireless work as a writer, preacher, teacher, and social and ecclesiastical reformer that provided a substantial body of literature and an ethos from which the Reformed tradition grew. Today, the Reformed churches are a multicultural, multiethnic, and multinational phenomenon. The second edition of the Historical Dictionary of the Reformed Churches contains information on the major personalities, events, facts, movements, and beliefs of the Reformed churches. This is done through a list of acronyms and abbreviations, a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, a bibliography, and over 800 cross-referenced dictionary entries on leaders, personalities, events, facts, movements, and beliefs of the Reformed churches.

Download or read book Calvinists Incorporated written by Anne Kelly Knowles and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1997-02 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing immigrants onstage as central players in the drama of rural capitalist transformation, Anne Kelly Knowles traces a community of Welsh immigrants to Jackson and Gallia counties in southern Ohio. After reconstructing the gradual process of community-building, Knowles focuses on the pivotal moment when the immigrants became involved with the industrialization of their new region as workers and investors in Welsh-owned charcoal iron companies. Setting the southern Ohio Welsh in the context of Welsh immigration as a whole from 1795 to 1850, Knowles explores how these strict Calvinists responded to the moral dilemmas posed by leaving their native land and experiencing economic success in the United States. Knowles draws on a wide variety of sources, including obituaries and community histories, to reconstruct the personal histories of over 1,700 immigrants. The resulting account will find appreciative readers not only among historical geographers, but also among American economic historians and historians of religion.
Download or read book T T Clark Companion to Nonconformity written by Robert Pope and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 763 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protestant Nonconformity, the umbrella term for Congregationalists, Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists and Unitarians, belongs specifically to the religious history of England and Wales. Initially the result of both unwillingness to submit to the State's interference in Christian life and a dissatisfaction with the progress of reform in the English Church, Nonconformity has been primarily motivated by theological concern, ecclesial polity, devotion and the nurture of godliness among the members of the church. Alongside such churchly interests, Nonconformity has also made a profound contribution to debates about the role of the State, to family life and education, culture in general, trade and industry, the development of philanthropy and charity, and the development of pacifism. In this volume, for the first time, Nonconformity and the breadth of its activity come under the expert scrutiny of a host of recognised scholars. The result is a detailed and fascinating account of a movement in church history that, while currently in decline, has made an indelible mark on social, political, economic and religious life of the two nations.
Download or read book Observing God written by William J. Astore and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scottish theologian, educator, astronomer and popularizer of science, Thomas Dick (1774-1857) promoted a Christianized form of science to inhibit secularization, to win converts to Christianity, and to persuade evangelicals that science was sacred. His devotional theology of nature made radical claims for cultural authority. This book presents the first detailed analysis of his life and works. After an extended biographical introduction, Dick's theology of nature is examined within the context of natural theology, and also his views on the plurality of worlds, the nebular hypothesis and geology. Other chapters deal with Dick's use of aesthetics to shape social behaviour for millennial purposes, and with the publishing history of his works, their availability and their reception. In the final part, the author explores Dick's influence in America. His pacifism won him Northern evangelical supporters, while his writings dominated the burgeoning field of popular science, powerfully shaping science's cultural meaning and its uses.

Download or read book Theologia Cambrensis written by D. Densil Morgan and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2021-09-15 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As well as outlining the shape of Welsh religious history generally, this volume describes the development of Calvinistic Methodist thought up to and beyond the secession from the Established Church in 1811, and the way in which the Evangelical Revival impacted the Older Dissent to create a vibrant popular Nonconformity. Along with analysing aspects of theology and doctrine, the narrative assesses the contribution of such key personalities as William Williams Pantycelyn, Thomas Charles of Bala andThomas Jones of Denbigh, and the Nonconformists Titus Lewis, Joseph Harris ‘Gomer’, George Lewis, David Rees and Gwilym Hiraethog. Following the notorious ‘Treachery of the Blue Books’ of 1847 and the Religious Census of 1851, Anglicanism regained ground, and among the themes treated in the latter chapters are the influence of High Church Tractarianism and the Broad Church ‘Lampeter Theology’ in the parishes. The volume concludes by assessing the intellectual culture of evangelicalism personified by Lewis Edwards and Thomas Charles Edwards, and describes the challenges of Darwinism, philosophical Idealism and a more critical attitude to the biblical text.
