Books with author Frederick William Robinson

My dear Father A ntony, Six years ago it seemed natural to me to cast what I had to say in the way of Preface toG rowth inH oliness into the shape of a Prefatory Epistle to you; so much and so affectionately were you mixed up with the past life and the past experience which that Book represented. It seems still more natural now, that I should do the same in the case of Bethlehem. For this Book not only represents a past in which you are as much mixed up as with that other past six years ago, but, by God sappointment, it calls up associations, which, if they are less joyous, are on that very account more tender. That Will of God, which has laid you aside and given you, apparently for life, only pain and endurance for your portion in the work of His vineyard, has disappointed many hopes and frustrated many schemes, which were more dear to us than strangers can ever understand. Yet I trust that neither of us have, even so much as in thought, rebelled against it.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
