Excerpt from A Sermon, Delivered in the Presbyterian Church: In Greensboro, Ala on Sabbath, December 22, 1851 The Church Of God was once in Egypt - but the Egyptians persecuted it. They cried unto God, and God heard them, for His people never cry to Him in vain. Then He led them away to a far off country through the Red Sea, and through the bar ren wilderness, until He had delivered them from their ene mies, caused them to walk on dry land through the river of Jordan, and planted them in that land which was the glory of all lands. From the time of Joshua until the time of David, God led them on to victory, until, at length, Jerusalem was ta ken from the J ebusites, and that city, which has since become associated with some of the most stirring incidents in the world's history, became the metropolis of the Jewish nation - the city of God - where He recorded His name - the pride and glory of every Jew; rather than forget which, he would part with the use of speech, or with the skill of his right hand. The Jews found all their prosperity in seeking the Lord. They sought Him in Egypt, and He was found of them there: they sought Him at the Red Sea, and He was found of themfthere they sought Him in the rocky wilderness, where there was no wa ter - no corn-fields waving with golden harvest - no fig-tree for the weary pilgrim, and where, not unfrequently, the hoof of the traveller's horse strikes on the skeleton bones of the famished way-farer - and here, also, He was found of them they sought Him in their conflicts with their enemies, and He was found of them. They sometimes neglected to seek Him, and then, they but stood still, or wandered from the right way. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
