1792 JAMES DANA. Doctrine and Mission of Jesus - Ordination of Abiel Holmes at Cambridge, Mass. Martyrs A bit wrinkledWe're a big fan of the ordination sermon. They provide a uniquely concentrated and intentional statement of the core values and perspectives of the Church in a given time and place. This is even further concentrated in the "charge" at the end, where the most important functions of the Gospel Ministry are laid on the Pastor as primary sacred duties. Both personally and historically interesting reading. Fascinating ordination sermon for Abiel Holmes
