In this profound sermon delivered following the devastating plague of 1625-1626 in London, Richard Sibbes reflects on the mercy shown to a city that once faced overwhelming loss—where the death toll dropped from over five thousand a week to just three individuals. With heartfelt gratitude, he acknowledges the restoration of peace and the ability to gather freely for worship and work. Drawing from Psalm 10717, he emphasizes the shared responsibility of sin that led to their affliction, likening the citys suffering to a body afflicted by a disease. Sibbes marvels at the miraculous cessation of the plague, urging listeners to recognize that their cries to the Lord played a significant role in this divine intervention. Join us as we explore themes of repentance, communal accountability, and the power of prayer in the face of calamity.Copyright Religious Texts and Commentary Christianity Ministry & Evangelism Spirituality World
