Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Character and Blessedness of Those Who Die in the Lord: A Sermon, Delivered at Acton, Dec, 14, 1812, at the Funeral of Mrs. Abigail Adams, Wife of the Rev. Moses Adams, of That Town And I heard a voice from heaven, saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them. The richest consolations to afflicted man are derived from the invisible world. In the present state, troubles spring up in every place, in every condition; but in the future, sorrow and sighing will forever cease: thence, therefore, are drawn not only his chief, but, sometimes, his only joys. Supported by these, which the believing mind discerns, the pious heart partially enjoys, and the gospel hope anticipates in perfection, the living and dying christian is enabled to endure trials with patience, encounter death with courage, and triumph over every enemy to his peace and salvation. The blessed Author of our being perfectly knows our frame, and remembers that we are dust. His compassion to his suffering children is wonderful. He pities their weakness, while he chastises their faults, and causes heaven to shine upon their souls, while he destroys their earthly hopes.
