The Highest Divine Title, and the Highest Human Privilege
Homilist
Psalm 79:9
Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of your name: and deliver us, and purge away our sins, for your name's sake.


I. The highest DIVINE TITLE. "God of our salvation." God in creation appears transcendently great; but in salvation we see —

1. A higher kind of power: moral power; the power to manage, master, and mould free rebellious intelligences.

2. A higher love. The love of compassion, forbearance, forgiveness.

II. The highest HUMAN PRIVILEGE. To be saved involves the restoration oral.

1. A lost moral life.

2. Lost harmony.

3. Lost usefulness.
