Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Word of the Spirit to the Church
Otherwise, though by necessity of conviction or nature I may be constrained to speak, I have no regret, but only re joicing, in the masterly performance of his undertaken task. Great good to the denomination of which he is a member, and to the church at large, must result from the earnest debate he has had the ability to move. Not from stir, but from sleep, is our spiritual danger; and new-england men, therefore, will thank for his work's sake the new-england's son now their new-york missionary brother. 'quite unimportant to him is such open commendation or recognition. He will care for the truth only, and welcome from friend or stranger whatever least sign of its direct shining or faint-re?ected light. Yet is it of consequence to all persons in delicate bonds of relationship, so far as they may, to keep the public apprehension in conformity with private esteem. Let this excuse references such as it is no wont of mine to make. May He, whose being is the link of all our unions, lead us into his perfect truth and love!
