Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sermon on the Death of Abraham Lincoln, Late President of the United States: Preached on the Occasion of the National Funeral, Wednesday, April 19, 1865 It is only in the light of Divine revelation that we can interpret the movements of Divine Providence. The Word of God reveals the purposes for which this world was created, and for the accomplishment of which it is governed. But even with all the light which shines upon us from Heaven, we can comprehend the ways of God only in part. When we have learned all that comes within the grasp of our limited intellects, we must yet adopt the language of Job - "Lo, these are parts of his ways; but how little a portion is heard of Him! but the thunder of His power who can understand?" Not less appropriate is the language of the Psalmist - "Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne." The difficulty which presses the mind is far greater, when Providential events of a peculiarly startling and alarming character are the subject of contemplation. In such circumstances, the feelings of the heart become too strong for the intellect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
