Excerpt from The Plea and the Pioneers in Virginia: A History of the Rise and Early Progress of the Disciples of Christ in Virginia, With Biographical Sketches of the Pioneer Preachers
Our Object in presenting this little volume to the public is threefold. First: The reformation in Penn sylvania and that part of Old Virginia now known as West Virginia has been set forth in Richardson's Memoirs of A. Campbell; Haley's Dawn Of the Reformation performs a similar work for Missouri; the reformation in Ohio has been depicted in Hayden's Early History of Disciples in Western Reserve; the pioneer history Of the movement in Kentucky is derived from the biographies of John Smith and Jacob Creath; Virginia alone, of all the States that took a prominent part in the restoration Of primitive Chris tianity, has up to this time had no written record Of her pioneer reformers. Our second reason is: That the younger generation about to become the pillars in the churches of Christ know little if anything Of the lives of those grand Old men, their forefathers, who fought so nobly the good fight of faith; nor can they justly appreciate the necessity of standing firm on the bedrock principles of the Old Jerusalem Gospel. Third: Doctrinal points are more easily understood when their application is in the concrete than when it is abstract. Our history as a people is the story of our plea in the concrete.
During the year 1901 the author embodied some of the material found in this work in a series Of essays.
