Reseña del editor

This Book of Sermons scarcely needs a preface. The author and orator began life among theS hakers when less than one year old, and may therefore be supposed to be excellent authority upon Shaker theology. It is the first book ever written for publication, by an individual whose whole life has been consecratedly devoted to and guided by the principles of Shakerism; and he tenor of the discourses denotes words fitly spoken, like apples of gold and pictures of silver. The sermons embrace nearly or quite every feature of Shaker polity, and will be highly appreciated by vei-y many as a book of reference upon the subject of Shakerism. That the author is a most excellent representation of whatS haker principles can do for a man, we are only proud to vouch therefor; and we feel a certainty that in the perusal of the followiiig pages by the seeker after truth, the reader will feel the hallowed influences of one who has been with the Christ, and who walks and lives with the Christ; and will also realize that he is one of theS avioirs to come upon mount Zion, to judge the mount of Esau. To the rearing of such individuals asS aviours is Shakerism devoted. That it is successful, as evidenced in the author of theseS ermons, gives a renewed confidence that Virgin Purity, Non-reaistance, Peace, Equality of Inheritance and Unspottedness from, the luorld the fundamental principles of Shakerism have not been, nor are they preached and practiced in vain.
