Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Discourse, Commemorative of the Life and Character of the Rev. James May, D. D: Late Professor of Ecclesiastical History in the Divinity School of the Protestant Episcopal Church in Philadelphia It is the duty of the Church to commemorate her sainted dead. Personal eulogy she must withhold; and the flattery of mere human praise, if it could issue from Her anointed lips, would be but a sullying breath, both to herself and to the object of her adulation. But, truly to commemorate is not vainly to flatter those whom God hath called, and justified, sanctified and glorified. Such commemoration is no more than the sacred duty of preserving the history of His dealings with His Church, in His rich grace by Christ Jesus, and in His marvelous power by the Holy Ghost. It is but the needful task of embalming in the perennial transparency of her records something better than the story of her dissensions - the memory of those whom God hath regenerated and trained to the higher life of the Spirit by the ministry of His Word.
