Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sermon Preached Before the Synod of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island: In Connection With the Church of Scotland, on June 26th, 1866
All work is honorable the more difficult the more honor able; the higher the nature of that on which, and the aims with which we work the more honorable; the nobler the companionship the more honorable the work. Of his work in the ministry St. Paul specially speaks in this chapter; and he strikes a higher key than David, who often cried, God is my helper; for such language indicates a separation between God and man; shows us man, weak, depressed, in danger, and the mighty God coming down to his rescue; whereas St. Paul's words imply a perfect oneness between man and God, a sympathy and companionship in labor, a unity of aim and effort. And this thought was a living reality to the apostle; seemed to be ever before him; and was expressed by him again and again, both in \his speaking and writing.ale.
