His was a rare, and a peculiar gift, adapted to feed 2 CONT and to build up both the weak and the strong. He was blest with a distinct and 2 CONT clear understanding of the world, could rightly discriminate between law and 2 CONT gospel. His manner was positive, yet mild and endearing, and he showed himself 2 CONT approved of God, a workman who needed not to be ashamed. He was highly 2 CONT esteemed, and his praise is in many of the churches of the saints. For many 2 CONT years he was accustomed to visit his bretheren and friends of the Bald Eagle 2 CONT Church, near the place of his birth, annually, though living about three 2 CONT hundred miles distant in Indiana, and his visits were always in the fullness of 2 CONT the blessing of the gospel of Christ. On those occasions we feasted on fat 2 CONT things, full of marrow, and wine in the lees well refined. I sorrow because I 2 CONT shall see his face and hear his voice no more. I have no doubt that to him to 2 CONT die was gain. D.C. Jones. 2 CONT ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 CONT From "The Signs of the Times", page 58 (1870): 2 CONT Dear Brother Beebe: By request, I send you the following obituary notice for 2 CONT publication: 2 CONT 2 CONT Elder Benjamin Jones died at the residence of his son-in-law, Wm. Richardson, 2 CONT on Monday, Oct. 18, 1869, in the 75th year of his age. His disease was said to 2 CONT be flux, with symptoms of typhoid fever. He was confined to his bed but for a 2 CONT few days. He bore his affliction with fortitude and resignation to the divine 2 CONT will, until God was pleased to remove him from his earthly tabernacle, to that 2 CONT celestial city where God the Savior reigns. He made a public profession of 2 CONT religion in 1825, by joining the Regular Baptist Church of Christ in Antioch, 2 CONT Rush Co., Indiana, and was baptized by Elder John Blades; after which he 2 CONT commenced exercising a public gift in the church, and was liberated by the 2 CONT church to preach the gospel. In 1829 he was set apart to the work of the 2 CONT gospel ministry, by solemn ordination, by Elders J. Blades and U. Edwards. He 2 CONT continued forty years or more proclaiming the unsearchable riches of Christ, 2 CONT much to the comfort and edification of the saints. Some years ago he removed 2 CONT his residence from Rush, to Boone Co., Ind., and placed his membership in the 2 CONT Eagle Creek Church, where it remained up to his death. He was an able minister 2 CONT of the gospel of Christ, and through all the divisions and controversies that 2 CONT came up, having a tendency to disturb the peace and fellowship of the church, 2 CONT he stood firm in the doctrine of salvation by grace. He seemed determined not 2 CONT to know anything among his bretheren save Jesus Christ and him crucified. His 2 CONT speech and his preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in 2 CONT demonstration of the Spirit and of power; that the faith of his bretheren 2 CONT should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
