Excerpt from Sermon, Preached in St. Luke's Church, Philadelphia, October 11, 1865, Before the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church: On the Occasion of the Consecration of the Reverend Charles Todd Quintard, M.D., As Bishop of the Diocese of Tennessee This declaration he made not to the ignorant and the unrefined, but to those who gloried in eloquence; who made their boast of wisdom, and who regarded as barbarians all who came not within the magic Circle of Greek learning and Greek philosophy. It Shows the boldness of the Apostle in thus setting at naught that on which the Corinthians so much prided them selves, and also his confidence in the power of the truth which he preached, when he deter mined to set it forth, not in its most attractive phase to a Gentile mind, but in all its apparent ignominy and reproach, - when he resolved to preach at Corinth, not Christ as a Prophet greater than the world's greatest seers, not Christ as a Priest higher than the highest Pontifex of earth, not Christ as a King seated on a throne of universal dominion; but Christ dying, Christ on the Cross, hung up between heaven and earth, rejected by the Jews, despised by the Greeks, crucified by the Romans.
