Résumé :

The Crossway Short Classics Series Presents Rare Sermons from Black Puritan Minister Lemuel Haynes

Born in 1753, Lemuel Haynes was an indentured servant who grew to become a dynamic Reformed preacher. Nicknamed The Black Puritan, he is credited as being the first African-American ordained for ministry in the United States. This addition to the Crossway Short Classics series presents some of Haynes's important yet little-known work.

Selected Sermons features 4 rarely published sermons, along with a biography of Haynes. In Universal Salvation, he preaches on the reality of hell and the character of Satan. A Sermon on John 3:3 explores Jesus's command to be born again. The Character and Work of a Spiritual Watchman Described details qualifications for gospel ministers, and in Liberty Further Extended, he presents a biblical argument against slavery and oppression. This collection of Haynes's sermons offers readers robust spiritual insight and a closer look at an extraordinary figure in church history.
