A historical sermon delivered before the Lords in Westminster in January 1719, this work examines betrayal, conscience, and how a nation can turn toward repentance. It links the familiar gospel scene of Judas with broader questions of guilt, responsibility, and the pull of faction during a time of political crisis.
The author argues that people justify wrongdoing, deflect blame, and cling to self?deception. He uses biblical and historical examples to warn against zeal without reason, and to urge readers to ground government and public action in scripture, law, and the common good. The text also reflects on how divisions among the powerful, clergy, and people can lead a society toward destruction, and it calls for humility, reform, and national reflection.
Ideal for readers interested in historical sermons, religious history, and early 18th?century England.
