Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Transfiguration: A Sermon, Delivered on the 6th March, 1864, in the Old Presbyterian Church, South Cornwallis, on the Occasion of the Dispensation of the Lord's Supper
These accounts show us that the Person of Christ had indeed undergone a very remarkable and glorious change. It was nothing extraordinary to see the glory of Heaven surrounding Moses and Elias, but to see the hum ble, despised, persecuted Jesus of Nazareth who had not yet left this world of sin and suffering, to see him exhibited in such glory and majesty was indeed astonishing. He had wrought many mighty works upon the bodies of others, but never until now had His own personal appearance undergone any change; and we can readily imagine the overwhelming effect whichit must have produced upon the minds of the disciples, from the account which we have of Daniel's experience when he saw avery similar vision. We read in the tenth chapter of his prophecy, at the filth verse, die.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. On the 19th March, 1857, the Reverend George Struthers passed away and was laid to rest in the churchyard of a small Scottish church in the Cornwallis township, Nova Scotia. This book explores the fascinating history of the congregation and building, which is not only the oldest of its kind in the township but in the country itself. The author examines the church's roots as a Puritan meetinghouse and its development into a thriving Presbyterian congregation. Delving into the theological landscape of the era, the book sheds light on the role of ministers such as Hugh Graham and William Forsyth, whose dedication laid the foundation for a strong Presbyterian presence in the area. The author also discusses the arrival of the missionary George Struthers and his successor as pastor, John S. Newcomb, who penned the sermon that forms the basis of this book. The sermon on the Transfiguration, preached by Newcomb on a Sacramental occasion, is examined in detail. The author analyzes the historical and theological context of the event, exploring its significance in the lives of the disciples and its implications for the Christian faith. Themes of divine glory, the nature of Christ, and the importance of prayer are discussed, providing valuable insights into the beliefs and practices of early Presbyterian communities. Through its exploration of the history and theology of a small congregation in Nova Scotia, this book illuminates the broader themes of faith, community, and the enduring legacy of the Scottish Presbyterian tradition in Canada.
