Synopsis
Excerpt from Christianity Fitted for Universal Diffusion: A Sermon, Delivered in North Yarmouth, June 28, 1837, Before the Maine Missionary Society, at Its Thirtieth Anniversary
It is scarcely more evident that human nature demands some religion, than it is, - and this is my second remar.k,-that it asks for such a religion as that ofjesus Christ. The Gospel, 1 am well aware, is offensive to the depravity which pervades and corrupts the human tnind. It reveals a God against whom selfishness and pride constitute a direct enmity, and a Saviour moreover, whose doctrine and whose sacrifice bring down all high thoughts and Spread through the soul a dark and most op pressive consciousness of guilt. Yet this very revelation is essential to its fitness for such a being as man. We have an illustration in the story of the woman of Sychar, with whom Jesus conversed at the well. It could be no very pleasant thing to her, that he laid open her depravity, specifying the very sins of which she was guilty. But this very disclosure is the ground of her address to the citizens; Come, see a man which told me all things that ever] did: is not this the Christ? The reasoning seems to have been this: Jesus declared himself to bethe Messiah; his declaration is confirmed, its truth evinced, by his supernatural knowledge of my character and history. A similar process of reasoning goes far in all ages to produce the same conclusion. Christ in his word lavs open the heart, and tells man the story of himself. He shows the sinner what he has done. He sets before him his own image. He awakens and repeats his inmostconsciousness. No pleasant disclosure, it is true; but yet so just, so distinct, s'o vivid, that he does hot readily get rid of it.
