Humor, Mourning, and the Effects of Sin
Taking 'Blessed are they that mourn' as his text, Price contrasts worldly philosophy with the teaching of Scripture. He shows what this Scripture is referring to (in the antithesis between Christ and Satan), who it is that mourns, what they mourn over, and what blessing they are promised. Biblical mourning is contrasted throughout with the worldly levity and jesting that has become prominent in Christian circles -- and even in pulpits. Price asks: How can a Christian laugh and joke about matters which grieve the Holy Spirit and for which God's wrath is poured out? Most modern humor is shown to be sinful and the effects of this sin, and sin in general, are noted. This is a searching and stirring sermon dealing with personal and corporate sanctification and should profit all those who are serious about the faith.
