Excerpt from A True Church and a Good Churchman: A Sermon Preached in St. Philip's Church, Near Cheltenham, on Sunday, March 16th, 1845"He loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue."This plea was urged, on behalf of a Roman centurion, by some Jewish presbyters whom he had sent to our Lord, "beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant." "He loveth our nation, " said they, "and this is the man who, at his own expense, or by his own efforts, has built our synagogue."I shall take occasion, from these words, to point out to you the relation which subsists between the Christian Church and the Jewish Synagogue, - the love which we may well bear to our own Church of England, - and the duty of exercising and displaying that love by contributing to the erection of her places of worship in destitute and populous districts.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
