Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Joint Commission on Unification of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South and the Methodist Episcopal Church, Vol. 1: Proceedings at Baltimore, MD., December 28, 1916 January 2, 1917, and at Traverse City, Mich;, June 27-30, 1917 The first session was an open meeting, a devotional session held in the First Methodist Episcopal Church, Baltimore, Md., Thursday, December 28, 1916, at 10 A.M. Bishop E. E. Hoss, of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, had charge of this service. The opening hymn was: O Thou, who earnest from above, The pure celestial fire to impart. The Commissioners present, about forty in number, recited the Apostles´ Creed, "the confession of our one faith." Hymn No. 368 was sung: O love divine, how sweet thou art! When shall I find my willing heart All taken up by thee? Bishop Hoss read the Scriptures - a selection from the fourth chapter of Ephesians, "I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called," etc. - making various pertinent comments. Hymn No. 106 was sung: "O Worship the King, All-Glorious Above." Bishop Richard J. Cooke offered prayer, after which those present united in singing "A Charge to Keep I Have." J. F. Goucher: May I inject an item of business that should have attention - namely, that the two Commissions meet separately this afternoon and this evening? This motion prevailed. J. F. Goucher: I desire to move further that we authorize the appointment of a committee of ten - one bishop, two ministers, and two laymen, to be selected by each Commission - to serve as a Committee on Organization and Procedure, and that they make report on Friday morning. I do this that the Joint Commission may be able to proceed with its business without further interruptions. This motion also prevailed. J. F. Goucher: If it will not cause discussion, I will mention another matter. A number of editors of various periodicals have asked me if I would inquire of the Commission whether the sessions were to be executive. I told them that several members of the Commission had led me to think that that would be their desire. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
