And here, (as appropriate to this occasion,) I pro pose to find and hold out prominently to View, that in which the essential excellency of the Christian Ministry consists, and in the absence of which no man's ministry can be good, or worthy of reception by either the church or the world.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the essence of the Christian Ministry, identifying its essential goodness as rooted in a deep and abiding devotion to the honor of God, beyond all other considerations. The author argues that no other qualifications can suffice without this principle, which prompts perseverance in the right preaching of the Gospel, diffusing its unction through all aspects of ministry. By offering a practical application of this truth, the book sheds light on the ordination of ministers, emphasizing its significance as a public recognition of God-given qualifications rather than a mere bestowal of them. The author also highlights the importance of mental talents and attainments, recognizing their value as auxiliaries to a minister's piety, but never as substitutes. The work underscores the necessity of the Christian Ministry for moral preservation, emphasizing that no people can discard its principles and duties and be safe in purity and virtue. The author concludes by encapsulating the significance of the book's insights, asserting that they provide a renewed appreciation of the dignity of the holy ministry and its crucial role in glorifying God and leading people to salvation.
