Produced by Colin Bell, Chris Pinfield and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "Sermons" by J. B. Lightfoot is a collection of theological discourses written in the late 19th century. The sermons delve into various aspects of Christianity, exploring themes such as sin, the nature of God, and the history of Israel as evidence for the faith. Through rich theological argumentation, the author aims to inspire greater understanding and appreciation of Christian beliefs. The opening of the work introduces the theme of the divine presence in everyday life, using Bethel as a symbol of God’s surprising choice to manifest His glory in mundane surroundings. Lightfoot elaborates on the notion that true understanding of spirituality requires a shifting of perception, encouraging readers to recognize the sanctity in ordinary experiences. He emphasizes the belief that God is ever-present and that spiritual awakening comes from realizing His continuous involvement in the world around us, despite appearances. This sets the stage for deeper reflections on faith and moral living throughout the collection.
