Book Description

Excerpt from The Establishment Principle Defended: A Reply to the Statement by the Committee of the United Presbyterian Church on Disestablishment and Disendowment The subject discussed in the following treatise, therefore, is Of urgent and paramount importance and it is comparatively little understood. NO doubt one leading design of God in permitting, in His adorable Providence, the present struggle, is to bring this question into prominence. Few men understand it so well as our excellent author, and the general study of his powerful exposition and exposure cannot fail to. Be of much advantage to statesmen and theologians, as well as to Chris tians at large. We have here set before us in lucid development at once the paramount authority over men in all combinations and in everv relation of life, the conflict of ages, the last battle of the Church of Christ, and of the kingdoms of the world. Blessed be God, we know infallibly how this struggle shall terminate. The nation and kingdom that will not serve thee (the Church) shall perish; those nations shall be utterly wasted. All ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord, and all the kindreds Of the nations shall worship before Thee. For the kingdom is the Lord's, and He is the Governor among the nations. Arise, O God, judge the earth; for thou shalt inherit all nations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
