Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essays and Inquiries: Respecting the Gifts and the Teachers of the Primitive Churches If the gospel of Christ, which is "the power of God unto salvation," is infinitely the most important subject with which the human mind can be engaged, we must assign to public teaching, which is the "manifestation of the truth," a very high place among the positive institutions of Jesus. By the publication of his own word, God has prepared multitudes for a happy and glorious immortality - a result for which the "wisdom of this world" was perfectly inadequate. "For after that, in the wisdom of God, the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God, by (what was reckoned) the foolishness of preaching, to save them that believe." How much also on the state of public teaching depends the benefit which we derive from other divine ordinances. The propriety and fervour of our prayers to God, our delight and animation in the singing of his praise, and our discernment and consolation in showing forth the Lord´s death, as well as our general regard to the commandments of God, will ordinarily correspond to the measure of spiritual understanding and enjoyment which he is pleased to impart to us by means of public teaching. "Take heed unto thyself and unto thy doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this, thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee."
