Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A City Which Hath Foundations: A Sermon Preached on Occasion of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Organization of the First Congregational Church in Montpelier, Vermont, July 25, 1858 In one of the noblest Psalms which the King of Israel struck from his inspired harp, there is a sublime apostrophe to the church at Jerusalem. In the opening strain he sings, The Lord loveth the gates of Zion. His foundation is in the holy mountains. Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. And then he closes the hymn with a poetic declaration of the high honor which it brings to one to have been connected with its services, and to have been a resident of this glorious symbolic city. The Lord shall count when he writeth up the people, that this and that man was born in her. The text I have selected is the apostle´s expression of the same idea. It is descriptive of the earthly church. It is also prophetic of that immortal and equal society, the commonwealth of justified spirits, gathered by the Redeemer out of every kindred and nation. It is a type and symbol of that perfect state and city, ´whose citizenship is heavenly, whose charter is the infinite grace, whose title and right of freedom are faith in the Son of God;´ whose eternal builder and protector, whose wall of fire and whose column of cloud, by day and by night, is the living God.
