Career

Maximilian Friedrich Scheibler initially received lessons in the village school until his half-brother Peter Christoph Scheibler became an adjunct and successor to his father in 1767 and continued teaching Latin and Greek. In 1774 he attended the Archigymnasium Dortmund and after its completion in 1778 began studying theology at the University of Göttingen . He heard lectures from Christian Wilhelm Franz Walch , Gottfried Less , Johann Benjamin Koppe , Johann Georg Heinrich Feder , Johann David Michaelis , August Ludwig von Schlözer , Johann Friedrich Blumenbach and Johann Beckmann .

In 1780 he left the Georg August University and spent his candidate years partly with his half-brother in Bergisch Neukirchen, partly in Stolberg and partly with Pastor Dietrich David Bunge in Remscheid.

On September 3, 1786 he took office as a preacher in Düren . He was called to Imgenbroich in 1788 and preached in the church in Menzerath, as the communities of Imgenbroich and Monschau also used it. In 1789 Monschau had its own church and Maximilian Friedrich Scheibler took up his post as a preacher in Monschau on August 16, 1789. In the following years he went on several collecting trips, so that financial means were available for the purchase of a small organ in the Protestant town church Monschau .

Monschau belonged to the Duchy of Jülich . In 1794 the entire Left Bank of the Rhine was occupied by the French during the First Coalition War and thus belonged to France until 1814 . As a result, Maximilian Friedrich Scheibler emigrated, but returned to the parish after nine months in 1795 and then took on the office of pastor. Due to his state of health, after his 50th anniversary in service, he got an assistant, the candidate Brand, who was elected as his successor by the community in 1839.
