Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Sermons of Jesse L. Sewell: An Account of His Life, Labors and Character It is well that a remembrance of those who have labored for the good of others, have benefited their fellowmen and have left the world better for having lived in it, should be cherished. It is good to show an appreciation of those who have unselfishly devoted their lives to the salvation of men, and to the service of God, and to hold them up as examples worthy of the admiration of the aged, and the emulation and imitation of the young. In this utilitarian age, and age of material development, we are liable to overlook the religious and the moral good, and to forget those who labor to spread the religious principles which lie at the foundation of all intellectual advancement and material prosperity. The young are especially liable to be fascinated by the openings for worldly success, for gaining wealth, honor and power, through the development of trade, manufactures, mining and politics, to the neglect of those callings and principles which deal with the higher and better elements of our being, the moral and religious element of mans nature. The religious element in man lies at the foundation of all good, and all success, intellectual, moral or material. It is the conservative, and only safe guide of all the forces, intellectual, physical and moral in man. Without a healthy development and activity of the religious element in a people, there has never been, and cannot be a permanent growth in moral or intellectual attainments; nor in the accomplishment of great results in the material world.
