Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pennsylvania; The German Influence, Vol. 29: In Its Settlement and Development; A Narrative and Critical History Reformed Church History in this country has long been a subject of study. It is interesting to note that the first printed history of the Reformed Church in the United States was published not in America but in Germany. In the year 1846, the Rev. Dr. J. G. Buettner, the first professor of the first Theological Seminary in the State of Ohio, published "Die Hochdeutsche Reformirte Kirche in den Vereinigten Staaten von Nord-Amerika," in Schleiz, Germany. But even before that time, the Rev. Dr. Lewis Mayer, the first professor of the Reformed Theological Seminary at York, Pa., had been busy gathering materials for the history of the Reformed Church. Unfortunately he died at York, in 1849, before he had fully utilized the documents he had so carefully collected and copied. Only a brief sketch from his pen appeared in I. Daniel Rupp´s "History of the Religious Denominations in the United States," Philadelphia, 1844. A few years afterwards the Rev. Dr. John W. Nevin included a sketch of the German Reformed Church in America in his "History and Genius of the Heidelberg Catechism," Chambersburg, 1847. it he lamented that the Journal of Michael Schlatter was "the only record we have on the general state of the American German Reformed Church in the middle of the last century." In 1849, the Rev. Dr. Philip Schaff published in his "Kirchenfreund," Vol. II, a series of three articles on the "History of the German Church in America," in which he traced the origin and growth of the Reformed and Lutheran churches through three successive periods.
