File Name: Boardman, Henry A. - The Claims of Religion Upon Medical Men

File Submitter: superaben

Author: Henry Augustus Boardman
e-Sword Version: 9.x - 10.x

Taking as his text “Luke, the beloved physician,” Henry Augustus Boardman preached a sermon to medical doctors. Although meant only for his immediate congregation on November 21st, 1844, the sermon was distributed by members of the congregation to their medical friends.

Convicting, as Boardman’s publications always became, The Claims of Religion Upon Medical Men was published upon request by the University of Pennsylvania and Jefferson Medical College.

This little volume explains the importance of the medical field, as well as the responsibilities of medical practitioners to seek Christ and show Him to their patients.



Quoted from the sermon:


“A profession charged with so lofty and benign a ministration, and whose responsibilities are of so delicate and weighty a character, demands eminent qualifications, both of the head and heart, on the part of those who would assume its duties. Most of these qualifications, perhaps all, in a greater or less degree, are set forth with admirable ability and skill in the daily instructions of our medical schools. There is one, however, which is usually inculcated in the class-room only in an incidental way, and which, on every account, deserves your most candid and serious attention—I mean, PERSONAL RELIGION. The topic, then, I propose to bring before you, in the present discourse, is, THE IMPORTANCE OF PERSONAL RELIGION TO MEDICAL MEN. The theme would better suit a volume than a sermon. I shall confine myself to a few hints on the more obvious aspects of the subject. “
