Solomon Benjamin Shaw was a very
talented compiler of information. He is mostly known for this
work, Dying Testimonies Of Saved And Unsaved. In this
fascinating book, Shaw listed the final words of 236 well-known
individuals from all walks of life. Although many of the people
in this book are not familiar to many modern-day readers, what
makes this book truly interesting is the fact he included
testimonies for both the saved and unsaved.
Death is a transition from one degree of spiritual life or death
to another. The saved are translated from life to life more
abundant, while to the unsaved death is only the entrance upon
the second death of eternal separation from God. In the Bible,
death is called a sleep, a departure, a translation, etc.
Multitudes, while dying, see and hear things that are not seen
or heard by others.
This incredible, eye-opening book includes various deathbed
accounts of well-known individuals throughout history. It
reveals the inexpressible happiness and joy of the righteous
about to be translated from their home on earth to the paradise
of God. On the other hand it shows the awful remorse of
conscience and the untold mental agony of souls facing death and
the judgment of God unprepared.
It was the author's prayer that this work may be greatly used of
God in the salvation of a multitude of precious souls, and that
Christian workers may be filled with the fullness of God, ready
to meet Him when He calls.
Solomon Benjamin Shaw was a Methodist Episcopal minister,
historian, essayist and editor. Solomon and Etta Ellen were
married McBride, Montcalm County, Michigan. Solomon resided in
Chicago, llinois for a time before taking up his principal
residence in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
During the period 1877 to 1901, much controversy erupted in
Protestant Christianity over the matter of 'holiness' movements.
Solomon Benjamin Shaw as editor of the Michigan Holiness Record,
of Grand Rapids, Michigan, attended conventions trying to deal
with the subject, convened in Cincinnati and New York (1877);
Jacksonville, Illinois (1880); Round Lake, New York (1882);
Chicago 1885; and again in Chicago in 1901.
Rev. Shaw labored on what he referred to as the
"undenominational line". This stand constituted a middle ground
between the association plan favored by the
denomination-oriented members of the National and the
independent congregationalists of the movement. "Our work is not
to build up or tear down churches, but to save souls and to lead
God's people into the glorious experience of entire
sanctification regardless of denominational lines," he said.
