Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In the Day of the Ordeal: Sermons Since the last sermon of the present series was preached it has become ever clearer that this is a war, not merely of conflicting interests, but even more of antagonistic principles and types of faith. Moreover, while in the first months the war seemed to be most aptly described as the humiliation of Christ, the period has increasingly taken on the features of "one of the days of the Son of Man." We can now think of Him, not so much or chiefly, as the Man of Sorrows weeping over a maddened and desolated Christendom, interceding that these days should be shortened lest no flesh be saved, but rather as executing offices of government which the Scriptures ascribe to the Son of Man as the instrument of God´s transactions with mankind. He has been coming again as the Judge, who is trying each nation´s thought and work of what sort they are, and who is either pronouncing upon them His well-done, or exposing them to shame and contempt. He is returning in the character accepted by Him in the Synagogue of Nazareth, when it was declared that He was sent "to proclaim liberty to the captives and the opening of the prison to them that are bound." We have already seen something of the breaking of yokes, and we shall doubtless witness more. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
