Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Nations at War: A Sermon Preached in St. James´s Church, Chicago, on Sunday Morning, October 4, 1914, at a Service of Intercession for Peace Held in Conformity With the Proclamation of the President of the United States Five of the great nations of the world are at war. Some of the smaller powers have also joined themselves in battle. Never has the world known a struggle so extensive, so forceful, so sanguinary, so remorseless. The choicest lands of earth have been devastated, cities and villages have been cast down, homes destroyed, hosts of people scattered, the tenderest instincts of humanity outraged, in whirlwinds of passion, furious beyond imagination, fierce as the very fires of hades. Language fails to describe the horrors of Europe at this time; while the effects of so desperate and vast a conflict have disturbed widely and deeply the countries not as yet embroiled. The appalling news from beyond the seas chills and sickens the heart. Abroad the tidings are of death; at home we are perplexed by decreasing business and consequent privations, and distressed by emotions that threaten to deteriorate our judgment and to drive from us serenity of soul and mind. The greater part of the world, and with few exceptions the whole of the white race, seem to have forgotten the questions of our text: "Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us ? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, profaning the covenant of our fathers?"
