(Sanctify the congregation is a call to the Solemn Assembl...)
Sanctify the congregation is a call to the Solemn Assembly and to Corporate Repentance. This volume contains over a dozen powerful sermons calling the Church to fasting and to solemn assembly. A look through an index of early American publications reveals the wealth of attention that America's founding fathers gave to this issue of corporate repentance, and a selection of their sermons preached between 1646 and 1753 is included here, along with calls to corporate repentance issued by government bodies and in church covenants. A chapter on the solemn assembly has been included by the editor, providing valuable background on a subject that much of the modern church seems to have forgotten.
