Description: Life and Letters of Adolphe Monod, 1802-1856 Pastor of the Reformed church of France, by a Daughter.Nisbet & Co., 1885 387pp Very Rare He was beyond dispute the greatest preacher of the Protestant Church of France of the 19th century. His sermons were thoroughly Biblical, and by the full exposition of the texts, and by the conviction of what he was preaching, he called the hearts of many to turn to the Lord as their Saviour. Much sought after for his qualities as a great preacher his lecture tours contributed to the progress of orthodoxy. He was one of the founders of the Evangelical Alliance. When in 1855, Adolphe was overtaken by a fatal illness it seemed that the earthly ministry of the foremost preacher in France had come to an end. His voice would no more rouse the thronged congregation in the Oratoire, Paris, as it had done for nine years past. Thus reduced to the pain of a sick-bed at the age of fifty-three, Monod had but one concern: “O my God,” he prayed, is my work finished? Thou only knowest … I should so much have wished to leave behind me some lasting monument for Thy glory.” His prayer was answered. God did not restore him to his former work but brought him to exercise the ministry of suffering and patience which occasioned the contents of his book, Adolphe Monod's Farewell. As long as evangelical literature is read, this will be remembered as the most enduring monument that he left to the glory of God.”
