Synopsis

Prepare to meet the fearsome and merciful Christ on the Day of Judgment. The author, a renowned theologian, has gathered here 25 sermons that lay out the terms of our coming trial, assure us of the joys of heaven, and warn us of the pains of hell. He speaks, too, on topics of import to our present lives, such as overcoming despair, quelling our fears, and strengthening our faith. These sermons were originally preached to the well-heeled parishioners of a country estate, but their simple elegance and profound insights will move all readers. They remind us that our Redeemer is our Judge, and that our hope of salvation lies in the transformative grace that comes from accepting Christ's sacrifice. Through these sermons, we gain not only wisdom for a good life but also a renewed sense of the glories that lie beyond the grave.
