The quakers
Our Vision and History
The people called Quakers had their beginnings in England at a time of great religious and political ferment. The Reformation had involved crown and church alike, and the struggle with the papacy had opened the way for numerous independent movements that affected all elements of society. It was out of this ferment that George Fox, 1624-1691, discovered and developed a vital faith.
The emphasis of George Fox on the light of Christ” led to the adoption by his followers of the name “Children of the Light”. This was succeeded as early as 1652 by “Friends in the Truth”, or merely “Friends”, from the saying of Jesus, “Ye are my friends if ye do whatsoever I command you.” The popular name, “Quakers”, was said by George Fox to have been first applied by Justice Bennett in 1650, “because I bade them tremble at the word of the Lord”.
Mission & Purpose
The Light of Christ
From the earliest days of their history, there are frequent references in the writings of Friends to the belief that there is in the human soul a Light (Ps. 36:9, John 1:9) which is of divine origin and which makes mankind capable of responding to moral and spiritual influences. It is this divine quality that enables one to develop that awareness of moral distinctions and obligations known as conscience and inspires one to live, struggle, and suffer for the achievement of what ought to be.
George Fox often called this principle the “Seed of God.” “That of God in you,” or “the Light within.” It is “that something we cannot call less than divine and universal, for it links us with the eternal realities, and with our fellow men of whatever race or creed. It may be hidden or warped by ignorance or pride or self-will or prejudice, but it cannot be wholly lost, for it is part of that which makes us essentially men, made in the divine image, and having within us boundless possibilities of life in God.”
