Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pulpit Orator, Vol. 1: Containing Seven Elaborate Skeleton Sermons, or Homiletic, Dogmatical, Liturgical, Symbolical, and Moral Sketches, for Every Sunday of the Year, Also Elaborate Skeleton Sermons for the Chief Festivals and Other Occasions Our Lord Jesus Christ having come upon earth that man might have life and might have it more abundantly, established his Church which should last till the end of time, in order that the fruits of the Incarnation and Redemption might be extended to mankind in all ages. He called the twelve Apostles, and having empowered them to rule the Church, to offer the adorable Sacrifice of the Mass and to forgive sins, he commissioned and commanded them to preach the Gospel to every creature, it being his will that all should come to the knowledge of God. It pleased God, as the Apostle says, by the foolishness of our preaching, to save them that believe." - I. Cor. 1:21. "For God so loved the world as to give his only-begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in him may not perish, but may have life everlasting." - John 3:16. But "how shall they believe him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? - Rom.10: 14.In another place our divine Redeemer defines the power, the scope, and the subject-matter of the preacher of the Gospel when he says to his Apostles: "All power is given to me in heaven and on earth. Going, therefore, teach ye all nations. teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you." - Matt.28: 18, 19.They were, moreover, to preach like their divine Master, as one having power, and not as the Scribes and Pharisees." - Matt.7: 29. St. Paul, in his second Epistle to Timothy, further enlarges on the character of Apostolic preaching and the gravity of the commission which the Christian minister has received, when he addressed this solemn admonition to his favorite disciple - an admonition which the priest of God can not reflect upon too seriously: "I charge thee before God and Jesus Christ, who shall judge the living and the dead by his coming and his kingdom: Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience and doctrine." - 4 : 1, 2.
