Down to Earth But Heavenly Minded

EDWARD DENNETT was born on the Isle of Wight in 1831 at Bembridge and died in Croydon in Oct. 1914 after a short illness. His people were all in the Church of England. Still, he was converted as a lad through the instrumentality of a godly clergyman. He left the church from conviction and became minister of a Baptist Chapel in Greenwich, having previously matriculated at London University.

In 1873 he contracted a severe illness through visiting one of his parishioners and was sent abroad for a year by his people. He wintered at Veytaux and, coming in contact with ´brethren´ staying at the same ´pension,´ he had a good deal of intercourse with them, which helped to clear in his mind specific difficulties that he had.

Taking no steps till his return, he explained his views and resigned his charge. Shortly after ´breaking bread´ for the first time with those gathered simply at the Lord´s table "unto His Name."

Mr. Dennett had the pen of a ready writer. His sphere of labor was England, Ireland, and Scotland, and he paid visits to Norway, Sweden, and America. He had pastoral and teaching gifts of a high order.

Preface

We need “medicine” occasionally for the “healing” of the soul, but we cannot thrive on medicine alone. On the other hand, we need food continually to nourish us so that we may “grow in grace.” This little book goes forth, not so much that it may search the conscience as that it may feed the soul. For of old God strengthened and sustained His people with “Bread from Heaven,” and later the Saviour said: “I am the living Bread which came down from Heaven.” May these meditations on Him and His Word be used by God in some small measure to minister “seed to the sower, and bread to the eater,” and Christ to the believer.

In the main, the chapters which form this book have appeared in “Not in Vain,” the quarterly paper of the South Sea Evangelical Mission, which will be sent to any address for a year, on receipt of name and address and twenty-five cents towards production and postage, by the Secretary of the Mission, 8 Oberon Crescent, Gordon, Sydney, Australia, or any of the representatives of the Mission listed at the end of this book. The article “In the Midst” has also appeared in the “Revelation” Magazine, by whose kind permission it is now reprinted.
