Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Religious Condition of Christendom: Exhibited in a Series of Papers, Prepared at the Instance of the British Organisation of the Evangelical Alliance, and Read at Its Fifth Annual Conference, Held in Freemasons' Hall, London, August 20 to September 3, 1851
It was a design, as they felt, of no common magnitude, and encompassed with no ordinary difficulties. But they had acquired much experience; and the object meeting with general sympathy, their efforts were cordially supported both at home and abroad. An active correspondence was accordingly commenced, letters of inquiry and invitation were despatched to all quarters of the globe, opinions were gathered from all accessible countries, long journeys through the principal Protestant states of Europe were made for the purpose, plans of procedure were digested, special sub jects selected on which information should be sought and an interchange of sentiment elicited, parties appointed to prepare papers upon them, various committees organised and charged with different branches of the common duty, funds raised, the time and place of meeting fixed, and all other preliminaries settled. Through all these preparatory measures, demanding much foresight and great labour, the Council were carried with unbroken harmony, and with such evident proofs of the Divine blessing, as afforded no uncertain omen of the character of the contemplated meetings.
