Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Pattern of Mercy and of Holiness: Exhibited in the Conversion and Subsequent Character of Col. William Yeadon, Ruling Elder in the Second Presbyterian Church, Charleston, S. C.; A Discourse Howbeit, for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all long suffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting. 1 Tim. 1: 16. If there is any knowledge, which ought to fill the heart of man with joyful emotions, it is the knowledge of Jesus Christ as He is set before us in the gospel. It is like sunshine to the dreary waste of a Lapland winter. All is cold, dark and desert. The earth is bound with adamantine chains. Vegetation is at an end. The green verdure of the fields - the foliage of the trees - and the varied beauties of the landscape, are all lost in one dull and cheerless monotony. Man himself escapes from the misery around him only by burying himself in his darkened hut, and by drowning all thought in an endless round of dreamy occupation. And just such is the condition of every human heart until "the light of the knowledge of the glory of God, as exhibited in the face of Jesus Christ, shines within him." All around is dark and dreary. All nature reflects the angry frown of a holy and offended God, against whom man has sinned and whose "anger burneth unto the lowest hell." The whole animated "creation groaneth and travaileth in pain." Man, everywhere and in all circumstances, is "subject to vanity." He "walks in a vain shew."
