The True Ministers of Christ Accredited by the Holy Spirit: A Sermon

This work presents a record of a Sermon, preached at the visitation of the Venerable the Archdeacon of Derby, in All Saints' Church, on the 21st June 1842 by the Rev. Philip Gell, minister of St. John's, Derby, and rural dean. It was published in the same year at the request of the clergy. Excerpt from the work: «For we are not as many, which corrupt the word of God: but as of sincerity, but as of God, in the sight of God, speak we in Christ. Do we begin again to commend ourselves? Or need we, as some others, epistles of commendation to you, or letters of commendation from you? Ye are our epistle, written in our hearts, known and read of all men: forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us; written, not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshly tables of the heart.»
