Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian Ministry The object of this book is to furnish some answer to this question; to indicate to priests and preach ers what it is which induces half the population of New York city to lay aside their commercial pur suits and gather in their churches every seventh day; to interpret to themselves the men and women who form these congregations, and explain to them what it is that they are often unconsciously Seeking; and to indicate to those who rarely or never do go to church the advantage which they might secure if they were in this respect to conform to the custom, not only of their fellow countrymen in America, but of their fellow men throughout the world. The Christian minister fulfills a fourfold func tion: he is pastor, administrator, priest, and prophet or preacher. As pastor, he is the personal friend and counselor of his people; as administrator, the executive head of his church, which should be his force as well as his field. These two aspects of his work are not considered in this volume; it is de voted exclusively to a consideration of the minister as priest and prophet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and the Ministry in the Early Centuries: The Eighteenth Series of the Cunningham Lectures The aim of these Lectures is to pourtray the organized life of the Christian Society as that was lived in the thousands of little communities formed by the proclamation of the Gospel of our Lord during the first three centuries. The method of description has been to select writings which seemed to reveal that life most clearly, and to group round the central sources of information illustrative evidence, contemporary or other. The principle of selection has been to take, as the central authorities, those writings which, when carefully examined, reveal the greatest number of details. Thus, the Epistles of St. Paul, especially the First Epistle to the Corinthians, have been chosen as furnishing the greatest number of facts going to form a picture of the life of the Christian Society during the first century, and the material derived from the other canonical writings such as the Acts of the Apostles, the Apocalypse and the Pastoral Epistles, have been arranged around them. Similarly the Didache, the Sources of the Apostolic Canons and the Epistles of Ignatius have been selected for the light they throw on the life and work of the Church during the second century. The Canons of Hippolytus supplemented by the writings of Irenaeus and of Tertullian, have furnished the basis for the description of the organization during the first, and the Epistles of Cyprian of Carthage for that of the second half of the third century.

Elect from every nation, Yet one o'er all the earth, Her charter of salvation One Lord, one Faith, one Birth; One Holy Name she blesses, Partakes one Holy Food, And to one hope she presses With every grace endued. Though with a scornful wonder Men see her sore opprest, By schisms rent asunder, By heresies distrest, Yet saints their watch are keeping, Their cry goes up, "How long?" And soon the night of weeping Shall be the morn of song. Mid toil and tribulation, And tumult of her war, She waits the consummation Of peace for evermore; Till with the vision glorious Her longing eyes are blest, And the great Church victorious Shall be the Church at rest.

It seeks to be an interpretation of the conditions, an appreciation of the forces and difficulties, and a presentation of some of the opportunities, of the ministry. It is also an appeal simple and plain. It is not concerned with any special theory of the church or of the ministry. I fear that much of what I have written, though I hope not all, will seem unwarranted by my friends of; the Roman Catholic Communion. I write as a Protestant and for Protestants, and also as a college president for those best men - college students.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian Ministry: With an Inquiry Into the Causes of Its Inefficiency The materials for this work have been brought from different depart. Ments of the territory of the Church. Though the Writer has had a special regard to the Ministry of the Establishment (to which he is bound by the strongest and most endearing ties, and which occupies in his view the most commanding station in the Church of Christ) yet he would be sorry to refuse a cordial admission, and to neglect a diligent improve ment of the acknowledged excellences of the honoured men of God in other communions.1 If he should be thought to have been too large in his references, he can only apologize by his anxiety to shelter his own statements (which in themselves could possess but little weight) by the strength of accredited authority. After all, he is deeply conscious, that this most responsible work has suffered - perhaps materially - from the unskilfulness of its treatment. He would desire, however, to be accepted of his brethren, ' '2 in a sin cere attempt to subserve the grand cause, to which they, equally with himself, are consecrated and he would beg to express his earnest desires to be favoured with private communications for the improvement of a second edition (should it ever be called for) for which purpose he sub joins his place of residence at full length.

The Obstacles in the way are but wood, hay, and stubble, when compared with the one Foundation on which we all build, and in whose praise our hearts and tongues unite. If in the more controversial parts of these Lectures anything shall be found inconsistent in fact or in spirit with these views, it will be a cause Of sincere regret.
