Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sketches of Sermons, Vol. 2: Preached in Various Parts of the United Kingdom and on the European Continent The existence of a supreme ´First Cause´ appears to have been an object of general belief in every age of time. Even those nations which were not favoured with the luminous rays of revealed truth, have, by the dull gleam of nature´s lamp, possessed some confused notions of the Deity, and of the homage due to this "unknown God;" hence the multifarious attempts at propitiation which are connected with the superstitious rituals of heathenism. Revelation meets this confused idea, and pours a refulgence of light on the mind, developing the object, and describing the character of acceptable worship. The early recipients of revealed truth, the patriarchs, were favoured with a form of worship which was of Divine appointment, rural in its character, simple in its construction, and highly expressive in its sacrifices; for their animal oblations assumed the existence of guilt, and the necessity of expiation, strikingly prefiguring that victim of atonement, "who suffered (once for all) the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God." One of these interesting patriarchal sacrifices is represented to our view in the chapter before us, together with an attendant obstruction, and the pious perseverance of the venerable worshipper. In discussing this subject, let us consider, I. The Patriarch´s sacred engagement. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
