Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Moravian Church in New York City The year nineteen hundred and twenty-two is especially important because it marks the two hundredth anniversary of the Renewal of the Unitas Fratrum, or Unity of the Brethren, now generally known as the Moravian Church. The renewal of this ancient Protestant Church meant a great deal to the world in general and to the Christian Church in particular. Some of the most glowing pages in church history have been written by Moravians. The record of their early achievements is not unlike the Acts of the Apostles. At a time when the greater part of the Christian Church lay in the cold grip of a rationalistic formalism which had little or no concern for the welfare of anybody, the hearts of the people of Herrnhut were on fire for God. Their one passion was Christ, and to make Him known their greatest desire. Therefore they went anywhere and everywhere, preaching the gospel. In due time the Church spread to Great Britain, North America, and other lands. In America the conversion of the Indians engaged the zealous attention of the Moravians for many years. At the same time, they carried on extensive evangelistic labors among the many white people who were without church affiliation. It Js natural, therefore, that their hearts should be directed to the religious needs of the metropolis. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

CHAPTER XVIII THE CHURCH AT LEXINGTON AVENUE AND THIRTIETH STREET The pastorate of Brother Amadeus A. Reinke was by far the longest in the history of the congregation. It extended over a period of nearly twenty-three years and nine months. That these years were not marked by any phenomenal growth in membership was not due to any lack on the part of the pastor. His large heart, genial disposition, generous spirit, excellent judgment, unselfish service, sincerity of purpose, and whole-hearted consecration to the Saviour whose cause it was his sole purpose in life to advance, made him a man universally beloved by the members of the congregation, and by a large circle of friends in the city and elsewhere. In at least two instances the friendship of non-Moravians brought unexpected financial returns. On December 12, 1872, Daniel Marley, a second-hand furniture dealer, died, and when his will was read it was learned that he had left, as a token of his regard for the pastor, a legacy of $5,000 to the congregation. A certain Miss Merritt, who altho she was not a Moravian had enjoyed the sympathetic ministrations of Brother Reinke during her last illness, willed him personally the sum of five hundred dollars. No one was more surprised than the pastor when these facts were revealed. When he took charge of the congregation it was in anything but a flourishing condition. The church had remained too long in Houston Street. By staying there after conditions had become well-nigh insufferable, it seriously damaged its strength and prestige. This detriment was increased by the homeless wanderings after the churchproperty had been sold. It was therefore like starting afresh when the little congregation began its labors at Lexington Avenue and Thirtieth...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Moravian Church in Philadelphia: From Its Foundation in 1742 to the Present Time Brother Abraham Ritter submits to me three drawings, which he intends to have engraved and published, as illustrative of a history, which he is writing, of the Brethren's Church in Philadelphia. I have carefully examined those drawings, and have no hesitancy in giving this assurance, - that each and every one of them is an accurate and faithful representation of the several parts of the several buildings erected by the United Brethren in Philadelphia, as places of worship, for the residence of the congregational minister, and for the accommodation of such of the brethren and sisters as business might call to Philadelphia, for a short time. Those buildings were on the southeast comer of Race Street and Moravian Alley - now called Bread Street. I have always understood that these buildings were all erected about the year 1742; and I know they were taken down in 1819. No. 1, The Exterior of the Church, and the Parsonage attached, in which the elders of the Church met on business, and in which there was public worship and congregational meetings.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Memorial of the Dedication of Monuments Erected by the Moravian Historical Society: To Mark the Sites of Ancient Missionary Stations in New York and Connecticut T HE following pages contain an account of the dedi cation of two monuments, lately erected by the' Moravian Historical Society, on the sites of once flourishing Moravian mission stations, among the New England Indians, in New York and Connecticut. The Committee to whom that body intrusted the execu tion of its project, felt themselves called upon to secure a record of a historical transaction, and at the same time to gratify the inquiry and interest known to have been awakened on the side of the public, as well as among many individuals more directly concerned. With the preparation of such a narrative the Committee on Monuments charged the author of this volume. Naturally enough he did not contemplate inserting the Moravian sacred music, and the full detail of the ritual of the Moravian Church; but by others it was thought proper that the narrative should be a faithful record of all that passed at scenes deeply interest ing and impressive, for that thus might best be preserved forever fresh the very words and tones that in those plea sant scenes had bound in loving brotherhood the hearts of those Who had gathered together to honor the memory of men of peace, of faithful soldiers of the cross.

This book was released on 2018-02-24 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'A History of the Moravian Church, ' by J. E. Hutton, offers a very broad yet detailed history of this admirable religious movement. Hutton includes the doctrinal stance of the present day Moravian church, which is indicative of the long term affect of the historical views and teachings of their founder, Count Zinzendorf. Their dedication is admirable, though their stance is a little confusing since they adhered to the Augsburg Confession (affirming both Lutheran and Anglican views) while considering themselves members of neither church. Interestingly, the Augsburg Confession denounces the Ana-Baptist theology regarding the sacraments. Indeed, the Moravian church emphasizes experiential Christianity, that is, inner feelings and revelations as well as outward emotional raptures. In that regard they seem to have predated the current charismatics and the Quietism. In short, J. E. Hutton's book provides a very interesting and fairly concise history of the Moravian movement. Highly recommended to anyone desiring a better understanding of the church that actually predates the Ana-Baptists and was inspired into existence by the teaching and martyrdom of John Hus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is a special joy to have the complete text of The Gift, a stunning work in the H.D. canon, a work of import for studies in autobiography and the essay, for understanding the spiritual crisis of modernism, and as a climactic work in the career of an extraordinary 20th-century woman writer."--Rachel Blau DuPlessis, Temple University "All students and teachers of American literature will value this book for the light it throws on the poet who is, I believe, the most important female poet in America since Emily Dickinson, and indeed the most important female poet writing in the English language during the 20th century."--Louis L. Martz, Yale University In this complete, unabridged edition of H.D.'s visionary memoir, The Gift, Jane Augustine makes available for the first time the text as H.D. wrote it and intended it to be read, including H.D.’s coda to the book, her "Notes," never before published in its entirety. Written in London during the blitz of World War II, The Gift re-creates the peaceful childhood of Hilda Doolittle in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, where she was born in 1886. As an antidote to war’s destructiveness, H.D. invokes the mystical Moravian heritage of her mother's family to convey an ideal world peace and salvation that would come through the spiritual power of women--a power that also endowed her with "the gift" of her own art. Although H.D.’s androgynous signature first associated her with early 20th-century Imagist poetics, The Gift exemplifies her continuing innovations in prose. She uses the child-voice, flashback, and stream-of-consciousness techniques reminiscent of Virginia Woolf, Gertrude Stein, and Dorothy Richardson, but expands the genre of memoir through free-associative meditations on myth and her lengthy essayistic "Notes" on Moravian history, emphasizing the pioneer missionaries' rapport with Native Americans.. The Gift is key to intertextual studies of H.D.’s wartime oeuvre and to an understanding of the religious and gender concerns pervading her later work, especially the women-centered poems Trilogy and Helen in Egypt. Augustine’s introduction and annotations, based on extensive research in Moravian archives, provide a biographical and historical context to make this the definitive edition of The Gift, essential to students and scholars of H.D., modernism, and feminist literature.

Download or read book The Evangelical Counter-Enlightenment written by William R. Everdell and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-21 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This contribution to the global history of ideas uses biographical profiles of 18th-century contemporaries to find what Salafist and Sufi Islam, Evangelical Protestant and Jansenist Catholic Christianity, and Hasidic Judaism have in common. Such figures include Muḥammad Ibn abd al-Waḥhab, Count Nikolaus Zinzendorf, Jonathan Edwards, John Wesley, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Israel Ba’al Shem Tov. The book is a unique and comprehensive study of the conflicted relationship between the “evangelical” movements in all three Abrahamic religions and the ideas of the Enlightenment and Counter-Enlightenment. Centered on the 18th century, the book reaches back to the third century for precedents and context, and forward to the 21st for the legacy of these movements. This text appeals to students and researchers in many fields, including Philosophy and Religion, their histories, and World History, while also appealing to the interested lay reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A History of the Moravian Church" written by J. E. (John Edwin) Hutton is a definitive and scholarly exploration of the Moravian Church's rich and fascinating history. This work demonstrates Hutton's commitment to the study of religious movements and their impact on society. Hutton's book provides a complete history of the Moravian Church, officially known as the Unitas Fratrum, from its beginnings in the 15th century to its ongoing influence in the twentieth. The Moravian Church has a distinct history that may be traced back to Jan Hus, a reformer who challenged religious customs of his day. In "A History of the Moravian Church," Hutton methodically researches and tells the tale of this extraordinary Christian denomination's development, beliefs, and customs. He investigates their concentration on missionary work, their particular community life, and their substantial contributions to the history of Protestantism in general. One of Hutton's enduring qualities is his ability to make difficult historical and theological issues understandable to readers. He offers insightful insights into the Moravian Church's theology, spirituality, and impact on the larger Christian world.
