Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Bishop Paddock Lectures, 1885: The Church in the Nation Pure and Apostolical God´s Authorized Representative The Fourth Lecture contained in this volume was the last public utterance of the Bishop of Easton. During the night after its delivery he was prostrated by a severe attack of illness. He never recovered his health, and, after just six months of great weakness and suffering, patiently and courageously endured, he entered into rest. With physical strength unequal to the task, and with distrust in his own learning and powers of expression, he yet felt constrained to accept an invitation, more than once offered, to address men, for whom especially he felt he had a message, on a subject very near his heart. This book contains the guiding principles of his life. Whatever of success in the ministry was his, he believed was all owing to his loyalty to that true branch of the Church Catholic, to which in ordination he had pledged obedience. His feelings toward this National Church were those not only of love and veneration, but also of admiration and utmost confidence. In those dark hours of watching on the very brink of the grave, his thoughts were always turned to the glorious opportunities vouchsafed to the Grand Old Mother Church, if her sons would but see and do their duty. In her service he found his greatest joy; and Life, without work for her, possessed no charms for him. That this book might be read by many was his earnest hope; that it might do somewhat toward the furtherance of Christ´s Kingdom was his devout and fervent prayer.
