The Church: The Pillar And Ground Of The Truth is a book written by Flavel Scott Mines and published in 1838. The book is a comprehensive exploration of the role of the Christian church in upholding and disseminating the truth of the Christian faith. Mines argues that the church is not merely a human institution, but a divine one, established by Christ himself for the purpose of preserving and proclaiming the gospel message. The book is divided into several sections, each of which examines a different aspect of the church's role in the world. Mines begins by discussing the nature of the church, its origins, and its purpose. He then goes on to explore the church's relationship to the Bible, arguing that the Scriptures are the foundation of the church's teaching and practice. Mines also examines the role of the church in the world, discussing its responsibility to be a witness to the truth, to care for the poor and needy, and to work for social justice. He argues that the church must be engaged in the world, but not of the world, and that it must always remain faithful to its mission and calling. Throughout the book, Mines draws on a wide range of biblical and theological sources to support his arguments. He also includes numerous quotes from other Christian writers and thinkers, both ancient and modern, to illustrate his points. Overall, The Church: The Pillar And Ground Of The Truth is a thought-provoking exploration of the nature and purpose of the Christian church. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the role of the church in the world, and how it can best fulfill its mission to proclaim the gospel and serve humanity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
