Excerpt from The Semi-Centennial Volume of the Eliot Church, Lowell, Mass: Containing a Sermon From Each Pastor, Papers and Letters Furnished for the Jubilee Celebration, Confessions of Faith, EtcGod with the Israelites in the desert. Anything that has a reputable history is by it strengthened. A man whose life has been pure, true, brave, unselfish, noble, is clothed with power simply through the in¿uence of his past. The knowledge of what he has been creates expectation of what he will be, and ensures a confidence which is of untold worth. So is it with a church. It is not a meaningless injunction that occurs so often in Holy Writ: Talk ye of all his wondrous works. If God has shown his mercy and love to his children, if he has done great things for them, it will honor and magnify his name to tell these things to the generations to come.This book is an attempt to exalt God and encourage his children, by setting forth his dealings with this ¿ock, which he has so graciously shepherded during fifty years. His providence over us has ever been manifest, his mercy has been great, his love infinite, his compassions have never failed. Sweet waters and green pastures have here gladdened the hearts of his dear ones, and they have found in him a sure refuge in every time of trouble.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
