Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Two Sermons, Delivered at Epsom, New-Hampshire, on the Day Appointed for the Annual State Fast, and National Thanksgiving for Peace, April 13, 1815 Here is presented a description of sincere, acceptable, and profitable fasting. In verses preceding the text, the prophet deals in severe re proof with those, who fasted only in an outward vain, and hypocritical manner. He would teach the people, that merely a formal observance of a day of fading would neither please the Lord, nor profit themselves. It is evident from the manner of the prophet´s reproof, that those, whom he was particularly addressing, were scrupulously exact in observing all the ostensible forms of fasting and penitence, while their hearts remained unaffected by all their services. "Behold," says he, "ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickedness; ye Hi all not fast as ye do this day, to make your voice to be heard on high." That is, Do not vainly imagine, that, without sincerity, the most boisterous found of words will gain the ear of the holy and omniscient Majesty of heaven. He cannot be deceived. He is perfectly acquainted with every secret desire of the foul. His attention can never be attracted by an empty found from a thoughtless tongue.
