Talmage Sermon on Husking Time and Death as Harvest
Rev T DeWitt Talmage uses a country husking party as a parable for death and the soul’s release. He recalls frosty mornings, shared meals, and neighborly spirit, arguing that dying is like a shock of corn coming in season. He urges faith, consolation, and the universality of salvation through Christ for all people. He contrasts noble grain with “nubbins,” saying trials prove worth and future heavenly reunion will reveal true character.
