Fire from Heaven

by Seth Cook Rees

Seth Cook Rees was raised a Quaker and was converted at the Friends Academy in Westfield, Indiana, in 1873. Five months later he preached his first sermon, thus launching his lifelong career as a preacher. [After an experience of sanctification] his primary goal was the proclamation of the message of a heart cleansed from all sin and empowered for God's service. For decades he pastored and preached in evangelistic meetings across America and around the world, served as a missionary to Native Americans, and also as the founding president of the Internation Holiness Union, which later became the Pilgrim Holiness Church (a forefunner of the Wesleyan Church). He was well knows at large campmeetings ... and God's Bible School and Missionary Training Home. This book is a compilation of several sermons he preached, recorded by stenographers in real time, mostly at Cincinnati. His style, mannerisms and phraseology, so expressive of his era, are therefore on full display, as well as his most pressing, urgent message -- the salvation of the lost and the sanctification of believers."--Back cover.
