About this eBook

Author Kingsley, Charles, 1819-1875
Title Sermons on National Subjects
Credits Transcribed from the 1890 Macmillan and Co. edition by David Price
Summary "Sermons on National Subjects" by Charles Kingsley is a collection of sermons written during the late 19th century, reflecting on moral and societal issues of the time. Drawing on biblical teachings, Kingsley seeks to address various national concerns, emphasizing the importance of faith and righteousness in guiding societal behaviors and decisions. The opening of the work introduces the first sermon, which focuses on the theme of Christ as the King of the earth. Kingsley discusses the significance of Advent as a time to reflect on Jesus Christ's coming and its relevance to societal issues such as poverty and moral failure. He emphasizes that hard times create a heightened need for a just king, while also encouraging listeners to recognize the continuance of Christ’s kingdom and justice in the world. Kingsley expresses a belief in the ongoing relevance of biblical teachings and the necessity for individuals and society to prepare their hearts for Christ's return and judgment. In this context, he calls for a reckoning with personal and national sins, urging both self-examination and action aligned with Christian values. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
