Last Hour of Christ Sermon on Vinegar and Comfort
A 1899 Washington sermon by Dr. Talmadge uses Christ on the cross to urge readers to seek comfort in Jesus. He emphasizes Christ’s vinegar cup as shared suffering for betrayal, poverty, bereavement, and death, urging believers to accept divine sympathy and burdens lifted by faith. He warns against self-reliance and invites all to drink the water of life.
