Extractions: 1895: 21 February Mark Twain's Pudd'nhead Wilson and Those Extraordinary Twins which he is pleased to term a tragedy and a comedy respectively are published together with lavish marginal illustrations. These pictures are the most praiseworthy feature of the volume, although they vary considerably. The author was not at his best when he wrote these stories. They are funny, and now and then very funny. But a coarse streak comes to the surface every little while and is disagreeable. The book is handsomely gotten up by the publishers and does them credit, but we cannot commend the stories which compose it to our readers very heartily.

Extractions: Congregationalism , a belief that it was the right and duty of each congregation to make its own decisions about its affairs, independent of any higher authority, emerged in Britain in the late 16th century. In the 16th and 17th centuries Congregationalists were often called Independents. In the 19th century Congregationalists were one of the largest Nonconformist groups and tended to share the faith and general outlook of the evangelical movem ent spartacus@pavilion.co.uk for details.

http://www.isle-of-man.com/manxnotebook/parishes/nc/cong.htm

Extractions: Congregationalism really began on the Island with the appointment of Samuel Haining as Minister in 1808. They opened their first chapel in 1813 in Athol Street Douglas from whence the congregation, after what appears to be some form of split, moved to Finch Road in 1866 and also to another chapel in Circular Road; A small chapel was also built in Union Mills. Nightingale in his Lancashire Nonconformity , 1893, gives the most detailed history available concerning the Congregationalists. The Evangelical Magazine for November 1808 has the following: The Gazette 27-Feb-1817 quotes Miles Leah as new independent preacher at Castletown - this M. Leah would appear to have later joined the Primitive Methodists as he is reported to have ministered at their first camp meeting 3 June 1823 and to have opened a new chapel in Braddan in Aug 1824 (when described as Mr Leah from Ramsey). The Manx Advertiser 20 June 1822 reports the opening of an independent chapel at Peel - this would appear to have been in the one-time Barracks Cubbon quotes Evangelical Magazine, 1822 as referring to 'Homilies in the Manx language' being distributed among the people of the Isle of Man and that on 27 May 1822 was formed 'The Isle of Man Congregational Itinerant Society' designed to spread the Gospel by menas of preaching and of schools - it was also 'proposed to procure itinerants to preach in Manks'. Nothing seems to have come of this - the Congregationalists remained very much English based.

Extractions: How Much is Enough? The text for the Sunday, March 9 worship was Exodus 16: 13-36 in which the "congregation of the Israelites" had complained against Yahweh and Moses and Aaron about being brought out into the wilderness of freedom without enough to eat; at which Yahweh responded by providing a "fine flaky substance" on the ground each morning for food. When the Israelites saw it they said, "man hu" (what is it?), which gets translated, "manna". Morning by morning, Yahweh provided for them and they ate manna for forty years. The instruction from Yahweh was: "gather as much as of it as each of you need according to the number of persons in your care." Some gathered more and some less and those who gathered more had nothing left over and those who gathered less had no shortage.

Extractions: ongregationalism is a form of Protestant Christianity which asserts the principle that a local congregation is completely autonomous under God and therefore should not submit to any outside, human authorities such as a regional or national synod of elders (as in Presbyterianism ) or a bishop (as in Episcopalianism). Baptists also practice this form of church government, but they are not referred to under the term Congregationalists (or its synonym Independents ). Congregationalists are those who practice this form of polity while also maintaining the practice of infant baptism. Because Congregationalism occupies a much humbler place in the configuration of Christianity today, it is easy to forget its prominence and significance in Victorian England. Likewise Congregationalism was not as numerically significant in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Although Congregationalists were important in the heady, turbulent days of the mid-seventeenth century claiming no less an adherent than the Protector, Oliver Cromwell himself the largest body at that time of what would become known in the Victorian period as "Old Dissent" was the Presbyterians. ("Old Dissent" refers to English denominations outside the Church of England which can trace their history back to the seventeenth century; "New Dissent" refers to the denominations which were founded in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries as a result of the

Extractions: These letters graciously have been shared with the Victorian Web by Eunice and Ron Shanahan; they have been taken from their website . The letters give an insight into the daily lives and concerns of 'ordinary' people without whom history would not exist. The letters are a wonderful example of how much history may be gleaned from such sources. This letter from the past is 200 years old, a beautifully written letter in perfectly legible script, addressed to the Treasurer of the Congregational Fund Click on the image for a larger view Robert Maitland, London from Newton Abbot, Devon, and is dated Feby 6th, 1797. The two postmarks are a very over-inked and smudged town stamp of Newton Abbott and the charge mark of 8, covering the cost of a single letter a distance of over 150 miles. This was the rate in force from 1796 to 1801. Newton Abbott is 188 miles from London. The postmark is very difficult to read on the back of the letter, in a different handwriting Click on the image for a larger view I have reproduced the letter as it was written, including odd spellings and abbreviations - for instance 'addresfing' for 'addressing' and 'exprefs'for 'express'. This is the old form of the 'long letter s' when it appears as a double letter in a word. It is the only way to show it on the modern keyboard

Extractions: Congregationalist Beliefs The Chambers Dictionary defines Congregationalism as "a form of Church government where each Church is independent in the management of its own affairs." Whilst this is correct it does not display the motivation or spirit of Congregationalism. Taking their lead from the Acts of the Apostles, Congregationalists believe that everyone who accepts Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour is able to speak with Jesus through prayer. Each Church member has as much right to express his or her understanding of the Divine will as does his neighbour. There is no select Priesthood. The Minister and Deacons are just the leaders in a community of equals. The Church Meeting at which each member has the right to speak and vote is Sovereign in the affairs of the Church. Each member has both the privilege and the duty to represent Christ to other people. This doctrine, known as the

Massachusetts Congregationalist Political Thought, 1760- 1790
Massachusetts congregationalist Political Thought, 17601790. TheDesign of Heaven. Dale S. Kuehne. Despite the enormous attention
http://www.system.missouri.edu/upress/spring1996/kuehne.htm

Extractions: Despite the enormous attention scholars have given to the American founding, there continues to be significant debate concerning its meaning. Dale Kuehne asserts that the founding is important not only in the areas of public policy and jurisprudence, but also in our understanding of the American Constitution. In order to convey the full complexity of American political thought during this era, Kuehne provides an exhaustive study of the Massachusetts Congregationalist clergy, one of the founding's most politically influential, but often overlooked, groups. Because Congregationalism was the established religion of the time, the Congregational church functioned as the spiritual and political center of each parish. The Sunday worship services were the primary social activity of the parish and the most effective means of disseminating news and education throughout the colony. The minister was usually the most educated and visible person in the parish and, as such, held a position of considerable influence, which was often used for political purposes. Examining sermons from 1760 to 1790, Kuehne details the transformation of the ministers' thought and provides unique insight into the intellectual and religious roots of the American founding. He shows that the Congregationalists, through their sermons, articulated an enlightened political theory informed by a variety of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century political thinkers, including John Locke, and framed by their Puritan heritage. He uncovers the political importance of reformed theology and various Enlightenment ideas, concluding that Massachusetts Congregationalist thought at the end of the era can be seen as a unique fusion of Enlightened and reformed thinking.

Extractions: The Congregational Church is in many ways America's church. Here is a short history: Pilgrims and Puritans: Background Context and Developments THE PILGRIMS The immigration of the Pilgrims to New England occurred in stages. But that they had to go somewhere became apparent soon enough. Theirs was the position of the Separatist: they believed that the reforms of the Anglican church had not gone far enough, that, although the break with Catholicism in 1535 had moved some way toward the Puritan belief in and idea of religious authority grounded solely in Scripture, by substituting king for pope as the head of the church, England was only recapitulating an unnecessary, corrupt, and even idolatrous order (Gill, 19-21). In one basic respect, the Pilgrims are a logical outcome of the Reformation. In its increasing dissemination of the Bible, the increasing emphasis on it as the basis of spiritual meaning, the subsequently increasing importance of literacy as a mode of religious authority and awareness, a growing individualism was implicit. This individualism may then have easily led to an
