The Religion of Politics is a sermon delivered by Ezra Stiles Gannett in 1842 before the Governor and Lieutenant Governor of Massachusetts. In this sermon, Gannett argues that politics should be viewed as a religious duty and that the principles of Christianity should guide political action. He asserts that politics is not separate from religion, but rather an extension of it, and that Christians have a responsibility to participate in politics and work towards the common good. Gannett also discusses the importance of maintaining a separation of church and state, while still recognizing the role of religion in shaping the moral character of society. This book provides a unique perspective on the intersection of religion and politics in the early 19th century and offers insights into the ongoing debates surrounding this topic today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
