Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Record of Facts The recent violent persecution in Madeira has burst upon the christian world like a clap of thunder from a cloudless sky. Amid the light and refinement, and especially the humane feeling of the 19th century, neither the church nor the world were prepared for such a demonstration of the unchangeable and barbarous spirit of Rome as is presented in this persecution. The origin, severity and extent of it, in connection with the work of God in progress among the Portuguese in Madeira, are too important to be omitted in the history of this century. We chronicle the events for the benefit of the present and of succeeding ages. The high moral lessons they teach should be written with "a pen of iron, and with the point of a diamond," on the hearts of all men. Having been brought into familiar intercourse with our persecuted brethren, and become personally acquainted with their sufferings for the sake of the Gospel, there may be some propriety (not to say an obligation) on the part of the writer to collect and spread out before the church and the world, the facts of their history and the nature of their trials.
