Election Sermons

ELECTION DAY SERMONS calls for a return to an earlier practice: before going to the ballot box, believers should go to the Bible to ascertain guiding principles for electoral matters. Christians should not imagine that political issues lack biblical illumination. These expositions, ranging from the Colonial era to the contemporary, shed light on issues of both civil government and eternal significance. ELECTION DAY SERMONS, past and present, provide light that transcends the partisan or temporal; in fact, these can provide a sure anchor for any election. Besides classic sermons from the founding era by Samuel Langdon, Charles Chauncy, Samuel Miller, and Samuel McClintock, this book also includes a classic sermon by James H. Thornwell, a fictional dialogue between the Devil and George III, along with modern sermons by Peter Lillback, George Grant, Terry Johnson, David Hall and others. This recent edition is newly typeset and revised from earlier works.

No man will be so bold as he who believes that he is elect of God. What cares he for man if he is chosen of his Maker? What will he care for the pitiful chirpings of some tiny sparrows when he knoweth that he is an eagle of a royal race? Will he care when the beggar pointeth at him, when the blood royal of heaven runs in his veins? Will he fear if all the world stand against him?" Here is one of the most gripping and succinct messages on the subject ever delivered!
