Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Two Homilies, Pronounced at Oneida Castle: In the Audience of the Oneida Indians at Their Eighth Triennial Anniversary, Since the Conversion of Six Hundred Pagans of That Tribe to the Christian Faith; On the 8th of August, 1841
MY brethren - What an accumulation of grand, of sublime ideas is here presented to our view. With the Psalmist must every pious Christian unite and testify, that the meditation of God is sweet unto him. It is on this subject, difficult to decide which most to admire, whether the grace of God, the benefactor, or the felicity of those who are made to participate in his blessings. The paragraph which now lies before us, requires that we give our present attention to that most delightful of all revealed doctrines, the riches or divine grace. In the verses immediately preceding 'our text, the Apostle here strik ingly exhibited the affecting state of the idolatrous and unregenerate world. He here in animated strains, displays the grace of God, and the glory and happiness of His chosen and sanctified people. This grace, in the passage which we now have under consideration is magnified by St. Paul in bringing up to View.
