Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Dangers and Duties: Talks to Men and Women "Shot your guns," said Napoleon as he stood on the gates of the Tuileries and saw the Directory´s batteries firing blank-cartridges into the swarming ranks of the insurrectionists. "Shot your guns," is the most important thing for the pulpit to learn to-day. We need more definite, practical, personal attack upon the evils and dangers of to-day. Men do not care to listen to preaching which is only a feeble echo of the words which moved the world in the days of the Schoolmen. That world has passed away. "All things have become new." The ministry is naturally conservative. It must cling to its institutions and organization by the necessity of its creed. But while it must forever fight a wild radicalism, it ought to fight it with the most recent and effective weapons. There is a mighty chasm between Hastings, fought with bow and arrow, and Sedan, with mitrailleuse and needle-gun, and there ought to be as much change in the arsenal of the pulpit. We must change our methods. We must interest men by preaching to them as sensibly and practically and wisely as men talk to them in business and in politics, as lawyers talk to juries.
