The Power of the Lord Is over All: The Pastoral Letters of George Fox [Hardcover]

George Fox (Author), T. Canby Jones (Editor)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 1989

"In this volume, T. Canby Jones joyfully presents what he has distilled of the essence of George Fox's pastoral teaching to the early Quakers. Filled as these pages are with spiritual counsel and practical wisdom in equal measure, Fox's love of God and care of His people shine steadily through them."

Joseph Pickvance, London Yearly Meeting

_____________________
The dynamic growth of the Society of Friends reflected the intensity of its early leaders. George Fox maintained a prodigious correspondence with groups of Friends---perhaps as many as 3,000 epistles.
This collection draws today's readers into the power of the Lord, which was experienced by early Friends, immersing us in striking imagery and inspired praise, admonishment and exhortation.

Anne Thomas, Canada Yearly Meeting

This review is from: The Power of the Lord Is over All: The Pastoral Letters of George Fox (Hardcover)

If you want a copy of George Fox's Letters, do not buy this editors copy. The editor (T. Canby Jones) made this a copy of his own, in the cunning craft of his own nature, whose edition destroys the words of G.F., and left out many, many, phrases in his Letters.
