Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Call to the Ministry: The Prevalent and True Theories Examined Jesus Christ represented the world under the similitude of a great field, in which a spiritual harvest is growing, wide in extent, priceless in value, ripe for the sickle, and ready to perish. The ability and willingness of the Lord of the harvest to send laborers into this harvest, and the duty of the Church to pray to him to call an adequate number to gather it, as well as to make the necessary efforts to induce those thus called to devote their lives to it, are both declared and enjoined in the word of God. Notwithstanding this, the disproportion between the number of the laborers and the extent of the harvest has continued for ages, and the moral results have proven most disastrous to mankind. Because the laborers were too few, much of the harvest of the world-field perished during the past; because their number is still inadequate, vast proportions of it are perishing now; and if no remedy has been devised and can be applied, the full harvest can never be gathered into the garner of heaven. The questions accordingly arise: Must the laborers always be too few, and much of the harvest continue to perish? Has the Lord of the harvest been unwilling to call an adequate number of laborers, or has the Church entertained erroneous views concerning the call to the ministry, and failed to make the necessary efforts to induce those called to enter her service? To us it is manifest that the latter, and not the former, is the true cause of the inadequacy of the number of ministers to preach the Gospel according to the great commission of Christ to every creature. This we hope to establish by an examination of the prevalent and true theories concerning the call to the ministry. The Prevalent Theory Stated And Found Wanting. A theory embraces certain ideas, which operate as govering principles in practice. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
