Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Historical Sketch of the Church and Missions of the United Brethren: Commonly Called Moravians What are the signs of the times? Are not attempts being every where made, to cast a shroud over the life-giving blessings of an "open Bible;" and to throw aside, or trifle with the divinely acknowledged mysteries of the Gospel? (See Mark 4 v., 11. I Cor. 15 v., 51. Eph. 3 v., 4. 9. I Tim. 3 v., 16.) Why this perversion of Truth? Shall, will our little Zion yield to this insidious, this destructive influence, by which she is surrounded? Or, as of old, go forth in the strength of the Lord, relying solely on the Rock of ages for support, and do the first works, in sincere repentance at having left her first love; (see Rev. 2 v. 4. 5.) lest God, in His just wrath, reject her, on account of a growing indifference in behalf of His praise and glory? (see Rev. 3 v. 15-17.) If our candlestick has not yet been removed, does the light which it emits, shine with that brilliancy and effect, as if supplied with the pure oil, flowing direct from the tree of life? (See Zech. 4. ch.) May the recollection, that we are descendants of a Church, - "Whose sons no yoke could crush, no burthen tire, Unaw´d by dungeons, tortures, sword and fire" - strengthen our Faith in the Lord, and spur us on to a "holy zeal," for the Religion of our Fathers, which is the Religion of our God and Saviour. That the blessing of the Lord, who knows the motives for publishing this little volume, may accompany it, and rest upon all who shall condescend to give it a friendly reception, is the wish and prayer of its Editor.
