Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of Rev. David Edwards, D.D: Late a Bishop of the United Brethren in Christ In presenting the following memoir to the Church and the reading public generally, a few words of explanation may not be out of place. The writer was not led to undertake the work through a desire to bring himself before the public as an author; but when a request came from the highest judicatory of the Church, together with the earnest solicitation of many of the friends of Bishop Edwards, the author could not well refuse to undertake the work. In the General Conference of 1877 a paper was presented and adopted in which the following words occur: "We esteem the life of Bishop D. Edwards as worthy to be forever embalmed in the memory and history of the United Brethren in Christ, as one of its most eloquent preachers, wisest counselors, and most faithful defenders of its holy and honored principles; a mighty man of valor in the cause of Jesus, and a Christian of the purest and noblest order - alike great and good." Mingled feelings of joy and sorrow seemed to fill the hearts of all the members of the General Conference, - joy that he had passed so triumphantly from labor to reward, but sorrow in view of the great vacancy made in the Board of Bishops and in the Church at large.
