Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In Memoriam, R. S. Candlish, Died October 19, 1873: Sermons, Preached in Free St. George´s, Edinburgh, on Sabbath, November 2, 1873 There could hardly be a more fatal sign of the condition and prospects of any community than the existence in it of such a state of things as our text describes. When a people cease to cherish and venerate moral and religious worth; when the death of eminently good and holy men hardly attracts notice and awakens no regret, and when the solemn lessons which so great a public calamity is fitted to teach are totally disregarded, the fact is ominous of coming wrath and ruin. It painfully indicates that the cement which binds human society together is undergoing a process of dissolution. In the course of its eventful history, our fallen world has often exemplified this truth. In the days that were before the flood the righteous perished, and no man laid it to heart. The sons of God - those who had the spirit of an Abel, a Seth, or an Enoch, disrelished and opposed by the ungodly spirit of the age in which they lived - were at length, in Gods divine displeasure, taken, one after another, away. And what was the terrible consequence? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
