| Summary | "National Apostasy" by John Keble is a prophetic sermon delivered in the early 19th century, specifically during the early 1830s. This book, which serves as a religious and theological work, addresses the concept of national and ecclesiastical decline within the Church of England. Keble discusses the implications of civil governance on spiritual matters and seeks to awaken a sense of responsibility among Christians concerning the relationship between the State and the Church. In "National Apostasy," Keble explores the dynamics of faith and governance by reflecting on the biblical account of the Israelites desiring a king, drawing parallels to the modern condition of the English Church. He emphasizes the danger of a society increasingly alienated from God and sacrificing its spiritual heritage for temporal stability. The sermon advocates for continued intercession, fidelity to Christian principles, and a respectful yet firm remonstrance against the state's encroachment on ecclesiastical authority. Keble calls on believers to maintain their devotion and integrity, reminding them that true loyalty to God and the Church must prevail even when faced with societal changes and challenges.
