Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of John William Colenso, D.D, Vol. 1 of 2: Bishop of Natal The life of Bishop Colenso has been, and will be, more momentous in its issues than perhaps any other life in the present century. That it should be so is only the fitting recompense of his work. From first to last he sought with a single heart for truth and righteousness as the pearl of great price. From first to last he was thankful that in the Divine ordering of things he had been enabled to search for this truth in a Church which encourages its members to seek it resolutely and to proclaim it manfully as the first of all duties. My motive in undertaking to write his life has been to lay before the world, for his words and his acts generally, a full and complete vindication. It would be ridiculous were I to affect ignorance of the character and purpose of the opposition shown to him by members of certain schools or parties. This opposition was based, professedly, on the ground that he was a traitor to the promises made at his ordination and consecration, a rebel against the laws of the English Church, an apostate from the faith of the Church Catholic and from Christianity. It is time that this contention should be brought to an end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
