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.

This book was released on 2017-12-27 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Living Pulpit of the Christian Church Christian people to which he belongs, and his brethren will prize it because so many precious hours were drawn from his slender stock of time and strength in order to give it to the church. Dr. William T. Moore has lived a long, useful life and though now far beyond man's allotted time on earth, in many ways his mind is as eager about the great questions of the church as when he first passed through the gates of youth. He has studied the best things and never failed to urge the for ward look and the widest Christian brotherhood. His passion has been to serve. May we not infer from the fact of this book that he believes preaching to be the supreme work of the church? And seeing the place Christ gave it, is it not the greatest work in the world?

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.

Download or read book Last Words in the Pulpit Classic Reprint written by George C. Miln and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 94 pages. 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.

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.

Download or read book The Pulpit Commentary Classic Reprint written by Canon Henry Donald Maurice Spence and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pulpit Commentary Thus then, in prophecy and the kingdom, Samuel gave to Israel first education, and secondly constitutional monarchy. Samuel was the first founder of schools, and as the great and primary object of his life had been the internal reformation of the Jewish people, we can well understand how his personal work had led onwards to this attempt to redeem his countrymen from ignorance. In those long years which he spent in perpetual wanderings up and down the land he must have constantly found that a chief obstacle to his work was the low mental state of the people. He had been brought up himself amidst what ever learning the nation had imported with it from Egypt but Shiloh's sun had set. Was learning to perish with it? Nowhere in Israel were men to be found fit to bear office or administer justice. The decisive failure of one so highly gifted by nature as Saul, and who started with so much in his favour, and under Samuel's guidance, but who seems to have had no ideas beyond fighting, proves that Samuel was right in his hesitation about creating a king. The fitting man was nowhere to be found. Schools were the primary necessity. Through them the whole mental state of the people would be raised, and men be trained to serve God in Church and State. From these schools came forth a David. Without them the brave warrior, but fierce despot, Saul was all that was possible.

See, again, how the t affects the sin against which we are so constantly struggl any longer against it? If my life is so short, let me enjoy my sm, and no more try to tear it from m heart and life. Certainly there have been noble souls, there are no le men to-day who, even with no knowledge of their immortality, will never say this, to whom sin is so evidently a violation of the laws of their life that, even with no thought Of the future, they will struggle against it to the end which seems to them so final. But to the main art Of mankind sin will not be easily resisted when there is no faith) in the immortality Of the soul. If I am but a wave of the ocean to kee form fora moment and then sink into nothing, what matter is it t at the wave be broken into spray and lost a little before its time if it must sink at the last? But how terrible must sin appear to us when we think of man as immortal Terrible enough, surely, when we think of what a man is that he should violate the laws of his being and sin. It is an awful thought that a young man should be impure and degraded who might be pure and holy; but how infinitely more terrible this becomes when we consider his sin in the light of im mortality, and remember that the consequences Of that sin must go on for ever and for ever.

Download or read book Expository Exultation written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2018-04-16 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “God has appointed preaching in worship as one great means of accomplishing his ultimate goal in the world.” —John Piper John Piper makes a compelling claim in these pages about the purpose of preaching: it is intended not merely as an explanation of the text but also as a means of awakening worship by being worship in and of itself. Christian preaching is a God-appointed miracle aiming to awaken the supernatural seeing, savoring, and showing of the glory of Christ. Distilling over forty years of experience in preaching and teaching, Piper shows preachers how and what to communicate from God’s Word, so that God’s purpose on earth will advance through Biblesaturated, Christ-exalting, God-centered preaching—in other words, expository exultation.
