God's Chosen Fast Or What Shall We Do: For Our Poorer Brethren In The Wynds And Closes is a book written by James Peddie in 1860. The book is a call to action for Christians to help their poorer brethren living in the slums of Edinburgh, Scotland. Peddie argues that fasting is not just about abstaining from food, but also about giving to those in need. He encourages readers to use the money they would have spent on food to help the poor and support charitable organizations. The book also includes stories of individuals who have been helped by these efforts, as well as practical advice for how to organize and carry out charitable work. Peddie's message is one of compassion and social responsibility, urging readers to take action to alleviate poverty and suffering in their communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
