Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Plymouth Pulpit, Vol. 1: Sermons Preached in Plymouth Church, Brooklyn These things are not merely in juxtaposition. The three commands are intimately related to each other. Being not slothful in business, is being diligent in business; and being fervent in spirit, is serving the Lord. It is service to the Lord to be diligent, enterprising, active, in useful business. This brings religion down into the sphere of ordinary and practical things. It does not exclude the conception of meditation; it does not exclude the idea, at times, of joy, or even of ecstacy, if that be the gift of God to any spirit: but it takes away from religion, if I may so say, the professional element. It takes it out of the category of artificial things, of things superinduced upon the course of nature and of life, and makes it to consist in the right ordering of disposition and conduct in the usual duties of life. The great duties of life, as they are ordinarily distributed, both in the household and out of it, are indispensable to the development of the whole nature of man, and of the prime virtues; and they are the instruments, or, to employ the language of olden times, the "means of grace," in life. The church, the lecture-room, the prayer and conference meeting, the communion of saints, were once spoken of as "means of grace."
