Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of Oberlin I could wish that we might ever set up as our model, the ministerial character of our blessed Lord and the Apostles. The more closely these are studied and copied, the more perfect and effective will be our ministry. Yet when their history is read, as there was so much that was peculiar and extraordinary, we are not enough inclined to contemplate them as models for present ministerial character. But when a successful pastor of modern times is exhibited, we feel that we are contemplating "a man of like passions with ourselves," whose example is imitable - that, in like circumstances, what he has done, we may accomplish. This disposition to admit the claims of modern examples, has induced me to desire that the Memoirs of Pastor Oberlin should be republished, and thus find their way to the study and heart of American pastors. One thing, belonging to these memoirs, is adapted to render them signally useful beyond most other pieces of clerical biography. While in their subjects there is often a splendor of genius, a fortunate combination of circumstances, or some peculiarity in the direction of Christian exertion, which, not belonging to therefore discourages or forbids competition - we feel that we are not fairly matched by nature or circumstances, and are excused from similar success. But the subject of this memoir is one that comes down to "the business and bosom" of every pastor. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
