Description
"Excerpt from Biographical History of Primitive or Old School Baptist Ministers of the United States: Including a Brief Treatise on the Subject of Deacons, Their Duties, Etc., With Some Personal Mention of These Officers; Brief Sketches of a Few of Our Talented and Spiritually-Minded Sisters and "Mothers in Israel"
When the legal dispensation with its types and shadows, its tabernacle and temple ceremonies, had served the purpose for which God had ordained them, viz, for the teaching and leading and pointing His chosen people to Jesus as the anti-type of all types - the substance of all shadows, it was then that old things under the law - passed away, and all things - under the gospel - became new. The Law being fulfilled in Christ its ceremonies were abolished and its shadows became more defined as the Son of Righteousness arose with healing in His wing, and in their place was established the church with its simple, spiritual worship. And among the gifts our Divine Saviour obtained for His church when He ascended on high, and which are to be perpetuated till the completion of her members and the perfect unity of the body, is that of faithful pastors.
