Excerpt from A Sermon, Delivered at the Ordination of the Rev. Josiah B. Andrews
The apoflle Paul was difiinguiihed from the other apoftles of our Lord Hus Chrift, by the ardor of his zeal, by the abundance of his labors in the fervice of his great mailer, and by the cruel perfecutions he met with from the enemies of the Chrillian caufe. Impre?'ed with a lively fenfe of gratitude to God, for interpofing, in a miraculous manner, to bring him to a knowledge of Jefus Chrifl: and of the way of falvation through him, he devot ed his life to the propagation of that glorious fyltem. To an object fo momentous he facrificed all that the world calls clear, his cafe, his interell, his reputa tion, and in the end life itfelfa This illuftrious child of wifdom triumphed in the midfl of perfecution he gloried that he was accounted Worthy to fufier for the caufe of Chrift; and defired to fpend and he fpent in difi'eminating that religion which is in fact, and which he firmly believed to be the power of God to falvation to every one that believeth.
