Talmage in Rome. A sermon on Colosseum memory
The Rev Dr Talmage reflects in Rome on Paul’s visit, the Colosseum, and ancient cruelty contrasted with Christian mercy. He recalls the dungeon, arena, and spectacles, condemns brutal public culture, and urges “Let-him-up” over “Thumbs down” while urging mercy and faith.
