The Coming of the Son of Man: A Discourse Preached in the First Congregational Unitarian Church, Philadelphia, on the Morning of the Lord's Day, May 24, 1829 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Facing the power of a transformative faith
The Coming of the Son of Man offers a historical sermon that argues Christian truth shapes society more through inward transformation than outward displays of glory. This edition invites readers to weigh dramatic claims about liberty, justice, and the civil impact of Christian ideas.
The speaker frames Christianity as a living force that has guided modern emancipation and public opinion. Rather than expecting spectacular signs, the discourse emphasizes moral power, universal benevolence, and the spread of knowledge as the true measure of Christ’s coming. Readers are led to consider how religious ideals translate into laws, institutions, and everyday conduct.- How the author defines true Christianity beyond ritual or sectarian form
- Arguments connecting religious truth to social and political progress
- Examples of liberty, justice, and compassion influencing public life
- A historical perspective on the idea of the Son of Man coming in power through spirit
