Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Writings of John Bradford, M.A., Fellow of Pembroke Hall Cambridge, and Prebendary of St. Paul´s, Martyr, 1555: Containing Sermons, Meditations, Examinations; &C The remaining letters of Bradford, about eighty-four in number, some of which have not hitherto been printed, will appear in the concluding portion of his works. That volume will also include the ´Hurt of hearing mass,´ the translations from Chrysostom, Artopoeus, and Melancthon, some minor pieces, a short memoir of Bradford, and an Index to both volumes. The writings of Bradford, as a chaplain and friend of Bishop Ridley, are of interest to all churchmen; and they embrace topics of deep import, which have more or less exercised the minds of devout believers in every period of the church of Christ. They fully justify the encomium of Foxe; ´Sharply he opened and reproved sin; sweetly he preached Christ crucified; pithily he impugned heresies and errors; earnestly he persuaded to godly life.´ They shew, ´how godly he occupied his time, being prisoner; what special zeal he bare to the state of Christ´s church; what care he had to perform his office; how earnestly he admonished all men; how tenderly he comforted the heavy-hearted; how fruitfully he confirmed them whom he had taught.´ Such considerations encourage the hope, that the blessing of Almighty God may attend this endeavour to present to the public the entire remains of one, whom Bishop Latimer publicly designated ´that holy man,´ and whom Bishop Ridley, within three years after admitting him to the order of deacon, wrote: ´In my conscience I judge him more worthy to be a bishop, than many of us that be bishops already to be a parish-priest.´ About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
