| Summary | "The World's Great Sermons, Volume 10: Drummond to Jowett" compiled by Grenville Kleiser is a collection of significant religious discourses assembled in the early 20th century. This volume features notable sermons that explore the theme of love as the supreme gift in Christianity, reflecting on how love transcends even faith and hope, drawing upon teachings from Paul, Peter, and John among others. The opening of this compilation introduces Henry Drummond's sermon titled "The Greatest Thing in the World," where he argues that love is the essence of Christianity and the highest virtue one can embody. Drummond presents love not only as an emotion but as a practical application demonstrated through virtues such as patience, kindness, and generosity. He emphasizes that love fulfills the law and is the key to living a truly meaningful life, even going so far as to suggest that without love, one's actions, even the greatest sacrifices, are rendered meaningless. This introduction sets the tone for the subsequent sermons, establishing love as the central pillar of Christian teachings. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
