Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Discourse Delivered in the North Congregational Church, New-Bedford, May 12, 1840: At the Funeral of Mrs. Esther Holmes, Wife of the Rev. Sylvester Holmes "And I heard a voice from Heaven, saying unto me write, blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea. saith the spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them." How joyful to the early confessors of Jesus, must have been the announcement of the beloved disciple in the text! Exposed as they were to persecution and death, for the sake of the gospel; the world had lost for them its power to charm; and while their only earthly inheritance was toil and suffering for Jesus sake, they could look only to the land beyond the grave, as the place of their rest. What then, could so sustain them amid the trials of their Christian profession; or operate as so powerful a stimulus to steadfastness in their high calling, and labours, and sufferings for Christ´s sake, as the simple description which the Apostle has given of the blessedness which the dead shall enjoy who die in the Lord, - "they rest from their labours, and their works do follow them." It was a voice from Heaven that he heard. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
