Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lectures on Pastoral Theology But the Father of the fatherless raised up a warm friend for James in the person of Henry Brevoort, Esq., of Hackensack, who from the time of Captain C.´s decease down to James´s licensure defrayed all the expenses of his education. James began his classical studies under that able and pious teacher, Dr. Wilson, and finished them under the Doctor´s successor, the Rev. Alexander Millar. The Rev. Dr. Peter Labagb, who was a fellow-student of Dr. Cannon, declares that he was an indefatigable student, and enjoyed, in an eminent degree, the affection and confidence of his teachers. In the year 1794, James, together with Dr. Labagh and the Rev. Garret Mandeville, made a profession of religion in the Reformed Dutch church of Hackensack, then under the pastoral care of Rev. Dr. Solomon Freligh; and Dr. C. then prosecuted his theological studies under the care of his pastor until the spring of 1796. As, however, Dr. Freligh was not a Professor of Theology, and could not give the certificate which was required by the Chassis, Dr. C. went to Dr. Livington on Long Island, and for two months prosecuted his studies, at the end of which time Dr. L. gave him the usual professional certificate. Hereupon he and Mr. Peter Labagh presented themselves to the Classis of Hackensack, and after a thorough and satisfactory examination, protracted through two days, they were both licensed to preach the gospel. After his licensure, Dr. C. received several calls from churches then vacant, but finally determined to devote himself to the care of the united churches of Millstone and Six-Mile-Run, which had recently become vacant by the resignation of the Rev. Mr. Van Ilarlingen. Upon the termination of the collegiate relation between these two churches, Dr. C. devoted the whole of his time to the church at Six-Mile-Run. This was his only field of labor, where for thirty years he quietly but most successfully cultivated the vineyard of the Lord. One who knew him well, thus speaks of him as a minister: "His preaching was- characterized by a clear exhibition of divine truth, and was thought to be peculiarly adapted to the tastes and various exercises of the pious. He was a Barnabas rather than a Boanerges. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
