Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of a Dedicated Life Among the youth pursuing their studies at Princeton, in the year 1834, there were a few, who regularly met weekly, for religious improvement. Their association was called the Philadelphian Society, from its purpose to promote the feeling of Christian brotherhood in its members and through them among mankind. Singly, or in committees, they collected information of the moral and religious condition of their own and other countries. And among the enterprises of the time most interesting to them was that of Christian missions to the heathen. On entering the society in those days, there were some names with which a newcomer soon became familiar, not because those who bore them were obtrusive in any way, but from the general deference paid to their characters and opinions. Such were especially Morrison, Dougherty, Freeman, Owen, Janvier, and Canfield. It is pleasant to think of them as they were then, just entering upon manhood, or approaching it, full of energy, buoyant with hope and elevated with the sentiment of a lofty purpose. The burden of their conversation, at all times, among themselves, was alleviation of the ills of human life, the salvation of souls, the glory of God, the Saviour, and the means through which they hoped to be useful to those ends.
