Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Discourse on the Aspects of the War: Delivered in the Indiana-Place Chapel, Boston on Fast Day, April 2, 1863 Jer. vi. 14: "They have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, peace, when there is no peace." Ezek. xiii. 10-15: "They have seduced my people, saying, Peace, and there was no peace; and one built up a wall, and - lo, others daubed it with untempered mortar! Therefore, thus saith the Lord: There shall be an overflowing shower and great hailstones and a stormy wind; so will I break down the wall, and bring it to the ground, that the foundation may be discovered. so will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall, and on those who have daubed it with untempered mortar; that is, the prophets who see visions of peace when there is no peace." We live in a great historic period. What we call history occupies but a small part of the centuries of time, or of the existence of the human race. Nations, civilized and uncivilized, have ten years or fifty years of annals to one year of history. Lists of kings, wars of robbery, the records of luxury, wealth, and outward well-being, do not make history - they only make annals. It is with nations as with plants, or with men - long periods of growth alternate with short hours of blossom-bearing and fruit-bearing - months of development with days of crisis.
