The Sunday-School Teacher As A Conversationalist, James H. Kellogg
The Sunday-School Teacher As A Conversationalist, James H. Kellogg
ATS Digital Resources
"Intense energy, coupled with wise direction, and a watchful solicitude and thoughtful tenderness, belong also to the true instructor in the Sunday-school. We would add to these, and all other excellent traits, the grand accomplishment of a good conversationalist. To achieve this will be no mean undertaking. ... Many of the grandest truths, the sweetest promises, the loftiest thoughts in all the Scriptures, have been expressed in conversation. It is a royal power, a gracious gift, a pure and lofty accomplishment, to be fitted and furnished for sweet and precious converse of the things of the kingdom."
Singing. John Wesley On Singing
Singing. John Wesley On Singing
ATS Digital Resources
"Few things can be more pleasing to the Lord than a congregation, with one heart and voice, praising his holy name.... From these remarks we surely must be sensible of the necessity of confining ourselves to simple tunes, as the fugue tunes have an unavoidable tendency to confine to a few this part of Divine worship, which belongs to the whole. And those, we think, have made few remarks on public worship, who have not observed, on the one hand, how it deadens devotion, and only at the best raises an admiration of the singers and not of Christ."
Alcohol As A Nutrient
ATS Digital Resources
This tract refutes the belief or assumption that alcohol is or can be a nutrient and therefore helpful to healthy living through thirteen (13) points of opposition.
The Pulpit And The Sabbath-School, Rev Henry A Nelson
The Pulpit And The Sabbath-School, Rev Henry A Nelson
ATS Digital Resources
"Can this turning the hearts of fathers to their children, and the hearts of children to their fathers, be accomplished in any other way, or by any other means, so well as by the combined and co-operative action of these two powers, the Sabbath-school and the pulpit? Are they not fitted to each other, and together fitted for this high use with a wisdom that is more than human? Have not they been predestined by God to be developed in this age, and to come forth together soon, in their beautiful harmony and marvelous adaptation, ready for the great work …
Apostolic Succession, Protestant Epsicopal Clergyman
Apostolic Succession, Protestant Epsicopal Clergyman
ATS Digital Resources
" "The first Apostles-the chosen twelve-were succeeded in the Church by a distinct order in the ministry known as Bishops, upon whom special powers and privileges were conferred. These bishops ordained other bishops, who in turn laid hands upon their successors, and the bishops of the Protestant Episcopal Church are in that succession from the apostles. It follows that those alone are true ministers who have been ordained by those apostolical bishops. All others are "pretenders and usurpers. " This is the claim. It is as false as it is ridiculous, and should deceive no one." "
How Paul Became An Apostle, Rev Henry Bleby
How Paul Became An Apostle, Rev Henry Bleby
ATS Digital Resources
"Paul's conversion and call to the Christian ministry and the apostleship is one of the most remarkable events in human history, showing that God's ways are not our ways, nor his thoughts our thoughts. ... Paul was the true successor of Judas, appointed by the highest possible authority, and that the election of Matthias, being disapproved by him whose sole prerogative it was to invest men with apostolic office and honor, was rendered by Paul's appointment entirely null and void."
What Is Alcohol?
ATS Digital Resources
"ALCOHOLis not found in nature. All those things designed for the nourishment of man are the product of life and growth; alcohol is the result of death and decay. ... In their best state they are rotten drinks, being simply fruit-juice rotted. ... Wine is not the "essence of the grape," nor is whisky the substance of the grain. ... Certain it is that no other drug has exercised so deleterious an influence on the human race, combining fascinations so powerful with effects so wide-spread and so destructive."
What Is Temperance?

"TEMPERANCErelates to the proper control of the appetites. It implies the moderate use of good things, and the total abstaining from those which are bad."

The Qualifications Essential For The Apostleship, Rev Henry Bleby
ATS Digital Resources
This pamphlet describes the three (3) qualifications essential to be an apostle. It ends with this: "These, according to the teaching and analogy of God's word, were the essential qualifications of an apostle. All these are found in the twelve; but they are not, and never have been, found to meet in any other human being."

The Origin And Design Of The Apostleship, Rev Henry Bleby
ATS Digital Resources
This tract explains the Biblical foundations for the creation of the original twelve (12) chosen apostles as well as Paul's appointment to the group.

The Embassadors' Journey

"Art thou halting on the heavenward road, my brother, carefully weighing the cost of a life of service, unwilling to come to the Lord, lest he should choose thee as a laborer in his vineyard? .... And Jesus of Nazareth sends a message to thee too, my sister! Thou, who dost recognize his power; thou, who dost secretly love him in thy heart, and yet dost dread to take the step that will place thee as his acknowledged disciple before the world. ... Fix thine eye upon the Cross, and forget thyself in the sight of thy bleeding Saviour. "He …
Modern Pretensions To Apostlical Succession, Rev Henry Bleby
Modern Pretensions To Apostlical Succession, Rev Henry Bleby
ATS Digital Resources
"THE office of the apostles, as apostles, was in its own nature temporary, and terminated with those who first discharged its functions. The foundation of a building, once properly and securely laid, does not require to be laid over again. And here was the peculiar work and honor of tbe apostles. To them it was committed to lay the foundation of the Christian Church; (we use a Scripture figure;) and all who were raised up to their help, and all who came after them in the evangelical ministry, could only assist in rearing the superstructure upon the foundation laid by …

Minnie's Story To The Jail Chaplain
ATS Digital Resources
This pamphlet tells the story of a young woman whose life began a downward spiral beginning with a focus on dress and ending in murder. The author says: "you ask me to tell you what brought me here. I think I will. ... I have thought about it, sitting here in the dark, and it has been written in letters of fire all over these walls, and dancing before my eyes, and mocking me. Dress!"
A Fisher Of Men And A Fisherman
A Fisher Of Men And A Fisherman
ATS Digital Resources
This is a story of a fisherman who hurried in from his work to hear the Word of God having recently found salvation. The fisherman happens along another and by his fervor draws the other into a service and ultimately to salvation as he hears the Word preached. The story ends: "The words of the noble preacher that day fell on at least two hearts that were as prepared soil. The old fisherman, with glistening face, listened to the truth, and to him it was "meat and drink." The intelligent, refined man, to whom life had already brought so many …

Tithing. [A Sermon], Rev C P Lyford
ATS Digital Resources
"In discussing this theme this evening we shall endeavor to show, I. That the Mormon system does not resemble, and cannot be deduced from, that system which prevailed under the Mosaic law. II. That it cannot be deduced from the teachings of the New Testament upon this subject; and, III. That it is in itself a system of extortion and plunder for personal uses by a despotic power."
The Glory That Excelleth, Rev Daniel Steele
The Glory That Excelleth, Rev Daniel Steele

"Our inquiry relates to the subjective aspects of the question - that is, to the emotions and estimates of the subject of the two experiences [sanctification / justification]. For we freely admit that justification, when viewed objectively in its relation to the Divine law and to future destiny, is the greater work, in asmuch as it changes the relation of the soul to the moral government of God, ... But we are not discussiing this view of the subject. We are inquiring into the inward experiences of the subjects of these operations of the Holy Spirit."

Liberalism In Religion And Other Sermons, W. Page Roberts
Liberalism In Religion And Other Sermons, W. Page Roberts
ATS Digital Resources
"The words Liberal and Liberalism at once arouse a spirit of mistrust in many minds, which become unsympathetic, irreceptive, and resentful. Even those who appropriate these words in politics are less ready to adopt them in religion. Indeed, it seems as though men had but a strictly limited quantity of mental motor energy, and that those who expend it in one kind of movement have none left for any other. Certainly the sects which are supposed to be the backbone of political Liberalism are the most obstinately immoveable in religion; and men ever ready to catch the first breeze impelling …

Beulah, Dora G. Dudley
ATS Digital Resources
"If we view this book as furnishing an account of God's personal dealings with her, and of the trying disciplinary steps she was compelled to take in her preparation for the work for which her Father was preparing her, ti is full of most valuable lessons to those who are willing to lay all upon God's altar and to live for His glory alone. If we regard it as a treatise of true consecration and faith, for practical purposes, it is more valuable; for in every successive steop in her development it is made apparent that everything must be thorough, …

"Be 'vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked' which corrupts both mind and heart, and let your conversation be both chaste and appropriate. 'And these signs shall follow them that believe: In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues.' 'Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.' "

"But he [God] made the Sabbath for man, and set him an example of rest. It is not to be spent in lazy indulgence, or in perfect immunity from exertion of any sort, but in rest from worldly toil, and for spiritual refreshment. It is the bright oasis in the desert of life; a place where we can lay aside the pilgrim's staff and cloak, and enjoy the 'green pastures and still waters.' "

" "A man is known by the company he keeps," and the power of association is felt and appreciated even by the brute creation. ... "It is the tone that makes the music," says a French proverb; and it is from good Christian people we must get the key-note if we desire to learn on earth the songs that will be acceptable in heaven. Be particular with whom you associate. Whether conscious of it or not, you will be more or less influenced by your companions."
