Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Second General Conference of Lutherans in America: Held in Philadelphia, April 1-3, 1902; Proceedings, Essays and Debates The beginning of the Twentieth Century finds the General Synod, General Council and United Synod of the South engaged in an earnest effort to reach a common understanding, and to acknowledge the importance of each others´ mission and work. In such effort, a most important agent has been the holding of public Conferences for the discussion of doctrinal and practical questions, that have brought together representatives of these once united, but now, for a generation, separated organizations of Lutherans. They were held first unofficially, through arrangements made by the late Rev. Dr. J. G. Morris of the General Synod, and the Rev. Dr. J. A. Seiss of the General Council, and have passed into history, as the Lutheran Diets of 1877 and 1878, After an interval of over twenty years, they were reintroduced by official provision made by these Bodies, and with the name of General Conference. Each of the organizations appointed a member of the Committee of Arrangements, and also a Finance Committee of laymen to secure funds needed to bring together representatives from a distance and provide for other expenses. In December, 1899, the first of these Conferences was held in Philadelphia, Its proceedings and essays were published in a volume, early in 1900. At their succeeding conventions, the three Bodies named resolved upon another Conference, and named the necessary committees. Upon such authority, the second general conference was called at the same place for three days in the week succeeding Easter, 1902.
