Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Manual on Christian Baptism: Its Mode and Subjects; Being the Substance of Six Lectures Delivered in the Congre Gational Church, Brantford, C. W., During the Months of September and October, 1856 The following lectures are printed at the request of the church of which the writer is pastor. They were not originally intended for publication, but were delivered to meet a peculiar local necessity. A most powerful religious revival, during the progress of which a large number of persons were hopefully converted to God, seemed likely to be suddenly arrested by an ill-timed discussion of the subject of baptism. The minds of the young converts were beginning to be disturbed, and the thoughts of the enquiring diverted from the great question of salvation to that of immersion. To avert the threatened evil, the writer publicly requested that during the progress of the revival all reference to this subject might be avoided, so that the work of God might proceed unimpeded. His request was misinterpreted, and taken as indicative of the weakness of his cause, and a consequent fear of discussion. Knowing such an impression to prevail he announced his intention of delivering a course of lectures on baptism at some future time; and, after a delay of nearly six months, he redeemed his pledge, and the reader has before him in substance the result. It was impossible for the writer, amid the varied duties of a pastorate, to pay that attention to style and arrangement in the original composition of the lectures that he would like to have done.
