Pompeii Sermon on Morals and City Decay
Rev Dr Talmage reflects on Pompeii's destruction to warn Brooklyn of urban moral decay. He contrasts art and culture with Christian religion, urging churches and Sabbath schools to prop up society and urging citywide revival over politics or spectacle. He invokes Pompeii as a cautionary tomb of cities to inspire faith and reform.
