[EAN: 9780259589792], New book, [PU: Forgotten Books], Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.Excerpt from The Lord of the Dead: A Sermon Preached in Christ Church, Albany Street Romans xiv. 9. For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living. St. Paul is dealing in this latter part of his Epistle with questions which touch mainly the common daily life, the social life of Christians. They are not matters of highest importance in the eyes of all men. But St. Paul, with that earnestness which marks him, and which quite startles us at times in the way in which it shows itself, goes down to very deep principles, and brings into consideration very great and very solemn truths in dealing with these matters. He is talking about certain Observances, about keeping certain days, about eating herbs or eating meat. He evidently did not think the matters in themselves so important as some people did, but he sees an importance in them which they did not. He sees that there is something very important not in these things, but underlying them. Meat, as he says to the Corinthians, commendeth us not to Meat of itself does not make us spiritually the better or spiritually the worse, but the way in which we take the meat is important. It is important because it shows whether or not we really accept the great principle of the Christian life, that we belong to Christ, that we are His at all times, His when we are doing simple commonplace trivial things as well as when doing something difficult, or great, or heroic. So he brings the thoughts of those whom he gis addressing to the great truths, that we Christians are the Lord s, and to the great mystery by which we are made the Lord s. And in doing so he speaks very decidedly and strongly. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and he equally giveth God thanks. For none of us liveth to himself.
