Notes
Lathrop states that the Jews in Roman Palestine were "the first persecutors of the Christian Church." He also asserts, "Their rejection of the gospel of Christ was the direct cause of their destruction" (p. 7). "The day is coming, when the kingdom of Christ will overspread the world, and God will purge out of it all things that offend. ... Great alterations must be made before the gospel can have a general spread. Ignorant nations must be enlightened and arbitrary governments reformed. The paganism of heathens, the delusion of mahometans, the infidelity of Jews, the superstition of papists, the corruptions of protestants, the stupidity and formality of nominal Christians, must all be removed. ... Let us diligently promote the faith and practice of religion within the circle of our own influence ..." (pp. 24-25). Half-title: Dr. Lathrop’s Century Sermon. S & S 796 (duplicated by 791, Century Sermon).
