Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Declaration of the Yearly Meeting of Friends, 1828: Held in Philadelphia, Respecting the Proceedings of Those Who Have Lately Separated From the Society; And Also, Showing the Contrast Between Their Doctrines and Those At a Yearly Meeting of Friends held in Philadelphia by adjournments from the 21st of the Fourth month, to the 28th of the same, inclusive, 1828 - The Meeting for Sufferings having been engaged in preparing a declaration of the principal causes and progress of the schism which has taken place on the part of some under our name, within the limits of this Yearly Meeting, and which also exhibits the doctrines of the Separatists, contrasted with the principles and faith of our religious Society, it was deliberately read; and the meeting being brought into a serious consideration of the affecting evidence which it furnishes, of the desolating consequences produced by the spirit and principles of unbelief and insubordination, and believing that it is due to the cause of_Christianity, and the reputation of our religious Society, to bear our testimony to the world, against the antiscriptural doctrines, and disorganizing proceedings and conduct of the Separatists, rully unites.with this declaration and testimony, and directs it to be signed by the clerk, and published on behalf of this meeting. It being as follows. In taking a view of the situation of our Religious Society, and of the various exercises and close trials, which those who love our Lord Jesus Christ, have had to pass through, we believe it important to preserve a faithful narrative of the schism which has taken place among some under our name, and to trace the subtle workings of that spirit of unbelief and insubordination which has been the primary cause of it - a spirit which has been privily brought in among us, under the specious appearance of a refined spirituality, but which has blinded the understandings of many, and led them, step by step, into an open denial of the fundamental doctrines of the Christian religion, as they are laid down by our blessed Redeemer and his apostles, in the Holy Scriptures.
