Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sermon, Preached in St. Luke´s Church, Philadelphia, October 11, 1865, Before the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church: On the Occasion of the Consecration of the Reverend Charles Todd Quintard, M.D., As Bishop of the Diocese of Tennessee He was now to meet a different class of people; the busy trader - the bustling merchant - the reckless sailor - the rough mechanic, and the varied elements which make up the noisy, sinful population of a great seaport. Yet with a wisdom and skill imparted by the Holy Spirit he accommodated himself to his new position, and began his great work of planting in that city, the very name of which was synonymous with immorality, the gospel of the Son of God. He succeeded. A church was gathered, and organized, and the new religion got a firm foothold in that great city. But how was this accomplished? What were the instrumentalities by which so great a triumph was achieved? St. Paul tells us in the text, "And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and Him crucified." He did not then attempt to plant the religion of Jesus Christ on a worldly basis, such as eloquence, wisdom, or philosophy.
