Practical Discourses Upon The Consideration Of Our Latter End: And The Danger And Mischief Of Delaying Repentance. By Isaac Barrow. This collection presents Isaac Barrow’s sermons on the brevity and frailty of human life and the peril of delaying repentance. Through meditative sermons about the end of life, Barrow argues that contemplating mortality should drive a prudent, pious life: to value true wisdom, to moderate desires for worldly goods, and to pursue lasting spiritual gains over transient pleasures. The sermons urge readers to redeem time, shun vanity, and seek God with sincerity, stressing that future salvation depends on present obedience. Drawing on biblical passages from Psalms and the Gospels, the text emphasizes humility before God, the instability of earthly glory, and the superiority of virtue over wealth, fame, or sensual pleasure. Overall, it exhorts a steadfast, disciplined life oriented toward eternity and the will of God.
