Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Four Sabbath Evening Lectures on the Mode and Subjects of Baptism: Preached in November and December, 1834; Before the Church and Congregation to Which the Author Ministers A favorable opportunity having occurred for submitting these Lectures to a few brethren, the following kind notices have been put into the Author´s hand. Having examined the following Lectures in manuscript, I am happy to observe that the mode of Baptism practiced in the Congregational and other Pædobaptist Churches, and the duty of Infant Baptism, are judiciously discussed, and shown to be supported, as they unquestionably are, by the word of God and the history of the Church of Christ. "Dear Brother, I thank you for the opportunity of examining your Lectures on the mode and subjects of Baptism. I have no hesitation in saying that you have a right view of the whole subject, and have sustained your positions by arguments which never have been and never can be overthrown. For those who differ from me on these points, I have the kindest Christian feelings; but twenty-five years´ examination and observation have convinced me that God is a covenant God, and blesses such as honor him in the dedication of their children. For the universal spread of right views and Christian feeling, we will ever pray. Rev. and Dear Sir, The mode and subjects of Baptism involve questions of paramount importance, in the organization and discipline of the Christian church. A mistake on either of these points, cannot but be connected with disastrous consequences, lie then, who in the fear of God, and the full light of Scripture, and history, and experience, plants both feet on the everlasting covenant of grace, and by force of argument unimpeachable and unanswerable, dispels perversion and ignorance, as you have done, deserves the thanks and approbation of every individual, who by spiritual relationship is a child of Abrahamic promise. Especially is this true at this day, when providential movements, in relation to little children and parental influence, are hailed as among the most brilliant tokens of the approach of that day when all shall know the Lord, and when the child shall, in attainment and blessing, die, being an hundred years old. May your laborious and very critical exposition of this unspeakably interesting subject, be, under God, eminently subservient to the hastening of that time, when all parents, like Noah, shall come with their whole house, into the ark of the covenant of salvation. May your efforts quicken ministers, churches and parents, to hold fast the promise, which has been revealed in the hope of glory to thousands, and tens of thousands of hearts: ´I will be a God to thee and thy seed after thee.´ For the perusal of your Sabbath Evening Lectures on these topics, with which you have been so kind as to favor me, accept my acknowledgments. I probably feel more interest in them, as they are fitted for circulation among the thinking, anxiously inquiring, and quick discerning people of Rhode Island.
