The HIRELING MINISTRY none of CHRIST'S or, A Discourse Touching the Propagating the Gospel of Christ Jesus. Humbly presented to such pious and honourable hands whom the present debate thereof concerns. In the discourse it will appear, how greatly some mistake, which say I declare against all Ministries, all Churches, all Ordinances; for I professedly avow and maintain, that since the Apostasy, and the interrupting of the first ministry and order, God hath graciously and immediately stirred up and sent forth the ministry of his Prophets, who during all the reign of Antichrist, have prophesied in sackcloth, and the saints and people of God have more or less gathered to and assembled with them; they have prayed and fasted together, and exhorted and comforted each other, and so do, notwithstanding that some are not persuaded and satisfied, {as others conceive themselves to be, } as touching the doctrines of baptisms, and laying on of hands

Banished from the Massachusetts Bay Colony for his refusal to conform to Puritan religious and social standards, Roger Williams established a haven in Rhode Island for those persecuted in the name of the religious establishment. Davis gathers together important selections from Williams's public and private writings on religious liberty, illustrating how this renegade Puritan radically reinterpreted Christian moral theology and the events of his day in a powerful argument for freedom of conscience and the separation of church and state.

Pages : 251
Book Description
Now that academic consensus has turned away from the dichotomy between the literate culture of the Puritans and the oral culture of Native Americans, Cohen (English, U. of Texas-Austin) looks at the methodological, disciplinary, legal, political, and aesthetic implications for studying communication during the early period of English colonies in North America. He looks at native audience, good noise from New England, forests of gestures, and multimedia combat and the Pequot War.

The End of Learning
Author: Thomas Festa
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135520089
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 253
Book Description
This book shows that education constitutes the central metaphor of John Milton's political as well as his poetic writing. Demonstrating how Milton's theory of education emerged from his own practices as a reader and teacher, this book analyzes for the first time the relationship between Milton's own material habits as a reader and his theory of the power of books. Milton's instincts for pedagogy, and the habits of inculcation everywhere visible in his writings, take on a larger political function in his use of education as a trope for the transmission of intellectual history. The book therefore analyzes Paradise Lost in the complementary contexts of its outright educational claims and more subversive countervailing measures in order to show how Milton dramatizes "the end of learning," which is to say both its objective and its failure. The thesis emphasizes the argumentative resourcefulness of Milton's efforts to liberate readers from the tyrannical bonds of their political innocence, most immediately in the context of the failure of Cromwell's regime to establish lasting republican institutions. More philosophically, the book explores the ways in which Milton's works investigate the humane and intellectual yearning for justice in response to the problem of evil.

Author: Roger Williams
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1556356099
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
Ten years after the U. S. Civil War, a group of men in Rhode Island made a conserted effort to rescue the widely scattered writings of Roger Williams.

The present collection now makes these volumes available to readers in their original orthography. The theme of religious liberty is dominant in these volumes, running through Williams's correspondence with John Cotton and on through his famous pair of works on 'The Bloudy Tenent of Persecution.' All of the extant shorter writings and letters of Roger Williams are included in this set, along with two significant works resulting from his engagement with Native Americans: his seminal 'Key into the Language of America and Christenings Make Not Christians.'
