Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from North and South, or Four Questions Considered: What Have We Done? What Have We to Do? What Have We to Hope? What Have We to Fear?; A Sermon Preached in the First Church in Hartford, on the Day of the National Fast, Sept; 26th, 1861 I never expected to see a time like this, when every day, and at all times of the day, we see soldiers in arms and hear the sound of martial exercises along our streets, and about the avenues of our city. I never expected to be called to preach on an occasion like the present, - a day of humiliation, fasting and prayer, appointed by the President of the United States, in conformity with the recommendation of both houses of Congress, and seconded by the chief magistrate of our own State, - on account of war, civil war having broke out in our country, and which is spreading devastation and ruin over the land. I never rose to address an audience, when I was so much at a loss what to say, in order to meet the demands of the occasion, and at the same time not to offend against the dignity and sacredness of my office as a minister of Christ. As I look round on this assembly, and think of the circumstances in which we meet here to day, a solemn awe comes over my mind, and I tremble lest I shall prove unfaithful to my trust, or fail to meet the reasonable expectations of those whom I address. May God guide the service and make it profitable to us all. I find a text suited to my purpose, in 1 Sam., 17; 29: - And Davis Said, - What Have I Now Done? Is There Not A Cause?
