Excerpt from Sermons
This is the earliest utterance which expresses the relation Of indifference or hostility between man and man which was one of the results of the disobedience Of our first parents. As St. Paul says tersely, By one man's disobedience many were made sinners. Most assuredly they were sinners against God, sinners against their fellow-men. Adam could not transmit that robe of righteousness which had been at the first super added to his natural endowments, and which was forfeited by his sin. And this man, left to the purely animal instinct of uncontrolled and unaided nature, became estranged, not only from God, but also from his brother man. As his higher intelligence was obscured, so his affections were contracted. He shrank back into himself. He lived. He worked, he thought for himself; and self-preservation and self-assertion absorbed all the energies which were due, first, to the honour of his Maker, and then to the care Of and consideration for his brethren. Had Adam never fallen, we may certainly presume that the human family might have multiplied indefinitely, while all its members would still have been united by the bonds of an unchanged affection. But the withdrawal of supernatural grace at the Fall meant the impetuous insur gence Of selfish passion, and the blood of Abel and the question of Cain marked the new relations Of enmity or of indifference between man and man which were its first results.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This fascinating book is a collection of sermons delivered at St. Paul's Cathedral by Canon Liddon. It explores Christian obligations within a historical context, examining how religious views on brotherhood have evolved over time. Canon Liddon argues that the Mosaic law first emphasized the importance of treating neighbors with love and compassion, an idea that Jesus later expanded to include everyone. The author contrasts this message with the attitudes prevalent in ancient pagan societies, where self-interest and hostility towards outsiders were the norm. The book offers a thought-provoking examination of the ways in which religious teachings have shaped human behavior and our understanding of our duties towards others.
