Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from To the Memory of My Mother The New England Meeting-House. When the Pilgrim Fathers landed at Plymouth they at once assigned a Lord´s Day meeting-place for the Separatist church, - "a timber fort both strong and comely, with flat roof and battlements;" and to this fort, every Sunday, the men and women walked reverently, three in a row, and in it they worshipped until they built for themselves a meeting-house in 1648. As soon as each successive outlying settlement was located and established, the new community built a house for the purpose of assembling therein for the public worship of God; this house was called a meeting-house. Cotton Mather said distinctly that he "found no just ground in Scripture to apply such a trope as church to a house for public assembly." The church, in the Puritan´s way of thinking, worshipped in the meeting-house, and he was as bitterly opposed to calling this edifice a church as he was to calling the Sabbath Sunday. His favorite term for that day was the Lord´s Day. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
