Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Sermon Preached at the Old South Church, Boston: Sunday Morning, November 28, 1897 "And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God." - Rev. xx. 12. This is the great Christian seer´s vision of the dead. It was indeed a momentous experience that he embodied in these words. Behind the vision beats his new passion for righteousness, back of it lies his profound Christian interest in man, his wonder as to what becomes of him after death, his longing to know what relation all souls here and everywhere bear to the Infinite Soul. His serious concern for man, his sense of the tragedy in man´s history, the burden of his heart as he thinks of the world as it is, and then upon the God and Father of Jesus Christ, - all lie behind this vision. The vision itself is full of seriousness and reserve. It is not a shallow optimism, shouting itself hoarse over the certainty of universal salvation, while it has no word of rebuke for present rampant iniquity. It is not that. It is full of awe as itself in the presence of God. Neither is it, on the other hand, a map of heaven and hell. It has no details for the curious imagination. It is full of dignity, it is under great reserve. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
