Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Defence of an Inquiry Into the Propriety of Using an Evangelical Psalmody in the Worship of God: Against the Objections of Rev. John T. Pressly There is no subject in the circle of Theology on which so much has been written for the last fifty years, by members of the different branches of the Presbyterian Church, as that of Psalmody. The Rev. John Anderson, D. D., the Rev. Messrs. Gordon, Walker and M´Masters, D. D., have written in favor of a restrictive Psalmody, or that the Church, in her praises of God, should confine herself to the book of Psalms: while, on the other hand, the Rev. Messrs. Black, Latta, D. D., Freeman, Ruffner and Baird have written in defence of what is usually called a Gospel Psalmody. The leader may reasonably suppose that the subject must have been exhausted on both sides, and may be ready to ask, what necessity can there be for another publication on the subject. The history of the present publication is this: The Rev. Mr. Reed, of the Associate Reformed Church in Erie, some years ago published a treatise on the prophecies, entitled, "The seven last Plagues," in which he tells us that one or two of "the vials of the wrath of God" will be poured out on those who have introduced what he calls "human inventions in the worship of God," and among which he classes singing what is usually called hymns and spiritual songs. We deemed it a duty to notice this interpretation, in an "Inquiry into the propriety of using an Evangelical Psalmody in the worship of God," appended to our little treatise on the prophecies. Dr. Pressly, of the same church, and Professor in her Theological Seminary, in the city of Allegheny, reviewed this "Inquiry," and the following observations are a reply to his "Review and Remarks." We would here apprise the reader, that he will find a considerable repetition of the same ideas in the following pages. This was unavoidable on our ∂ for after Dr. P. had reviewed our "Inquiry," not satisfied, as it would seem, with what he had done in his Review, he went over the same ground a second and third time, in remarks on our replies.
