Pulpit Pungencies

Excerpt from Pulpit Pungencies

Here are thousands of men that seem to rejoice in nothing else half so much as iniquity. The moment they hear the servant of the devil asking, Have you heard the news about A and B they say, What is it? Sit down and tell it to me and it is so relishable to reveal, and so ex quisite to hear, that A and B have been doing wrong, and have been found out in that wrong, that they fairly gloat over it! This is the very spirit of the devil himself. Â Momz'ng Sermon, August 7, 1859.
