Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A View of the Organization and Order of the Primitive Church No apology need be offered at, any time, for an inquiry into the subject of this volume: for, next in importance to that of personal holiness, is the question, How shall that Gospel, which has produced this holiness in us, be best preserved and perpetuated, that it may produce the like holiness in generations yet to come? Nor is this a duty to be made out by inference alone, for we are expressly commanded, to "walk about Zion, to go round about her; to tell the towers thereof; to mark well her bulwarks, to consider her palaces; that we may tell it to generations following." (Ps. xlviii. 12, 13.) And that the Church which the inspired Apostles, by the direction of the Saviour, and under the guidance of the Holy Ghost, established in the world, will be more likely to preserve and perpetuate the truth, than any other form of organization, must be so self-evident to him who has any just appreciation of the nature and design of the Gospel, that no argument can be necessary to prove it. But though no apology need be made for considering this subject, the reasons for presenting the public with a new work upon a topic that has been so fully and so ably discussed, may not be uninteresting. The substance of this work was written several years since, under the following circumstances. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
