Excerpt from Sermons Preached in Manchester
They saw all this solid world fade and melt, and behind its vanishing splendours they saw the glory of the God whom they loved, in the midst of which they felt that there must be a place for them, where eternal realities should fill their vision, and a stable inheritance satisfy their hearts.
The period, then, to which both David and Asaph look, in these two verses, is the end of life. The words of both, taken in combination, open out a series of aspects of that period which carry weighty lessons, and to which we turn now.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book includes two sermons by Alexander Maclaren, a well-known 19th-century minister. The first sermon, 'The Two Awakenings', discusses death as a moment of reckoning, drawing upon two psalms in the Old Testament which hint at a future state beyond the physical realm. Maclaren explores how the end of life can be either an awakening to the glory of God or to the consequences of one's actions. The second sermon, 'The Heavenly Workers and the Earthly Watchers', focuses on the idea that Christ is constantly working for the good of his followers, and that his servants on earth are called to join him in this work through prayer and proclamation of the gospel. Maclaren emphasizes the importance of continuous activity in the Christian life and the power of prayer to bring about change. These sermons provide thoughtful insights into the themes of death, judgment, and the Christian's role in God's plan.
