Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sermon: Delivered at Portland, June 27, 1855 1 Cor. 9: 23. And this I do for the Gospel´s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you. Man´s life begins in action; in the action of the lungs and heart, the opening of the valves, the circulation of life´s current in every part of the system, and in the exercise of the mental faculties. For, who can show that the mind of the infant is inactive? Who believes that it has not its field of observation and thought, into which it enters at once on its discoveries - the circle of which in continuation enlarges its circumference? Life, with all its energies, its intellectual and moral and physical powers, does, and must, have an object, for the sake of which it is spent. Most deplorably ignoble would life be, were it otherwise. With every man there is a "this," which he is doing as the means to an end. And it becomes the chief subject of his thoughts, concentrating his energies; it is the development of the decision to which he has come, fixing the course of his activity, in which his deeds will make for themselves a channel, broad and deep, to the judgment of "the quick and the dead." It was so with the Apostle, for he wrote to the Corinthians: "And this I do for the Gospel´s sake, that I might be partaker thereof with you." The text naturally leads us to consider: The Course of the Apostle; the Cause for which such was his course; and the Reason which he gave for his course.
