The Husbandman's Fear and Joy, Apply'd to National Danger and Deliverance
Religion, Loyalty and Sedition
Author: William Gibson
Publisher: University of Wales Press
ISBN: 1786830558
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 119
Book Description
The Hanoverian Succession of 1714 has not attracted the scholarly attention that it deserves. This is partly because the idea of the ‘long eighteenth century’, stretching from 1688 to 1832, has tended to treat the period as one without breaks. However, 1714 was in some respects as significant a date as 1688. It was the last time in British history that there was a dynastic change and one in which religious issues were at the forefront in people’s minds. This collection of essays were among the papers delivered at conferences in 2014 to mark the tercentenary of the Hanoverian Succession of 1714, held at Oxford Brookes University and Bath Spa University. They reflect some of the major issues that were evident in the period before, during and after 1714. In particular, they deal with how disloyalty was managed by the government and by individuals. They also demonstrate how central religion was to the process of securing the Hanoverian Succession and to the identity of the new regime established by George I. Disloyalty – real or imagined – was apparent in legal suits, in sermons and preaching, and in the material culture of the period. And once the Jacobite rebellion of 1715 had been overcome, the need to secure the loyalty of the Church and clergy was a key objective of the government.

Book Description
"Few books have had as great an impact on the cause of world evangelization in our generation as Robert Coleman's "The Master Plan of Evangelism.""--Billy Graham It all started when Jesus called a few men to follow him and share God's message with their neighbors.

Book Description
"The Eastern shepherd does not drive his sheep. He depends upon force or fear; but going vefore, he calls them. They know his voice, and obey the call. So does the Saviour-Shepherd with His sheep...It is not the fear of punishment, or the hope of everlasting reward, that leads the disciples of Christ to follow Him. They behold the Saviour's matchless love, revealed throughout His pilgrimage on earth, from the manger of Bethlehem to Calvary's cross, and the sight of Him attracts , it softens and subdues the soul. Love awakens in the heart of the beholders. They hear His voice, and they follow Him." -The Desire of Ages, p. 480This lovely new devotional book compiled from the writings of E. G. White is a wonderful overview of key points in the New Testament - full of challenge and encouragement to aspire to higher ground in your walk to Jesus.
