Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pulpit Politics In a former work - Cotton is King - the author has discussed the Economical Relations of American Slavery. That production was written in a conservative spirit, and with the view of laying before the public, North and South, the facts necessary to demonstrate the inestimable value of the Union, and the widespread ruin that must follow its dissolution. In another volume - Ethiopia - written with the design of promoting African Colonization, the author attempted to show, among other things, that, of all the population torn from Africa by the slave-trade and consigned to slavery, the colored people of the United States alone had made sufficient progress to justify the hope that any portion of the race were capable of carrying back a Christian civilization to the land of their fathers. The present volume - Pulpit Politics - aims at presenting the Ecclesiastical Legislation on Slavery, at the North, in its disturbing influences upon the American Union. The aim here is equally conservative; the design being to place before the people all that is known on the subject of slavery, in its bearings on the moral progress of the African race. By this means it is believed that the public will be able to judge, with greater accuracy, how far the action of the Churches may have been in accordance, strictly, with the legitimate duties of the Gospel ministry; or how far it may have partaken of a fanatical character, calculated unnecessarily to disturb the peace of the Church, and endanger the safety of the Union.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pulpit and Politics Brave soul He uttered his truthful message, and for it was smitten in the face by a false prophet, and sent to pris on by the enraged and characterless king. Every minister of the Gospel is a bearer of messages from God to man. And neither the hatred of political powers, nor the opposition of pulpit and press should deter him from giving a full and faithful deliverance of his message. It may be his duty to proclaim unpleasant truths to those who wear crowns, or the tiara, as did Knox and Luther; or he may find it necessary to utter his unpopular message to a proud and luxurious age ignoring the laws of God, as did Lovejoy, Parker, Beecher and Haven. But human nature is the same in all ages, whether it wears the crown, or casts a freeman's ballot. In the son of Chenaanah, it smote the cheek of the faithful prophet in Ahab, it imprisoned him in Jehoiakim, it burnt his message; in Herod it beheaded him in Queen Mary it dreaded him in a free Democracy it may banish him, as it did Aristides and in a free Republic under the voluntary system of ministerial support, it; may kill him as it did Lovejoy and Haddock, or refuse him sym pathy, or brand him with Opprobrious epithets or burn him in efligy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Politics and the Pulpit: An Essay on the Rights and Duties of the Christian Pulpit in Relation to Politics It is manifest that the solution of this question must depend on the precise meaning of the term politics. That it may mean what lies out of the range of the pulpit's relations and duties, is not disputed. That it may mean also what comes within the field of its obligations, is equally unquestionable. The first step to be taken, then, in answer to the question, is to settle the meaning of politics. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pulpit, Platform and Parliament Ten busy years in many fields of activity are not, perhaps, sufficient justification for so personal a book as this. But when I began to write down some of the events that have interested me most, and to share with others some of the responsibilities that have burdened me, there seemed to be no escape from the personal pronoun. May I ask you to believe that it has been with no desire to obtrude my own personality, but because the case I was anxious to present could not well be put in any other way? As the book passes out of my hands I am acutely conscious that it gathers up only a few fragments of'ten.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rights of the Pulpit, and Perils of Freedom: Two Discourses Preached in Lowell, Sunday, June 25th, 1854 Dear Sir: - The undersigned having listened with great satisfaction to the Sermons delivered by you, June 25, upon the Rights of the Pulpit, and the present aspect of Slavery in our Country; and, believing these discourses, if printed, would have an extensive circulation, and be the means of doing much good, would respectfully and earnestly solicit their publication. Gentlemen: - The discourses which you solicit for publication were written in the course of my ordinary pulpit preparations, under a deep impression of fear for the country, and a controlling sense of duty to God, and without any expectation of their receiving a wider circulation. I am grateful to you for your kind approval. I am oppressed by a view of the greatness of the theme and the solemnity of the crisis. I yield the discourses to your call, conscious that they are inadequate to their subject; yet believing that it is a time when every Christian freeman should exert what influence he has, and hoping that I may contribute some feeble mite towards arousing public sentiment to the maintenance of liberty, and religion, and all the imperiled interests of the land.

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 Pulpit and American Life Classic Reprint written by Arthur S. Hoyt and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pulpit and American Life Shortly before his death, the late Bishop Henry C. Potter of New York published a book on Eminent Churchmen he had known. Among the number thus treated were great English Churchmen like Dean Stanley of Westminster Abbey, Canon Liddon of St. Paul's, the present Bishop of London, Dr. Winnington-Ingram; and among Americans, Bishop Phillips Brooks, our greatest preacher and one of the noblest Americans. The literary critic of a New York daily, after praising the literary work of the book, added the depreciatory comment that it was a pity so much ability and labor were spent upon men whose work was" entirely aside from the main currents of human interests." Bishop Potter himself is sufficient answer to this common and superficial estimate of the preacher. He was not only pastor of churches in Troy, Boston, and New York, and finally Bishop of the most important diocese of his denomination, but by virtue of his character, position, and attainment was a force in the higher life of the city and nation. He was the first to point out the larger work of the Y. M. C. A. He was a pioneer in adapting the Church to its changed environment. He taught unflinchingly the social implications of Christian doctrine. He proclaimed the social duties of the new industrial order. He exposed the shame of a corrupt public life. He was a citizen Bishop. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
