Summary "The Life of Duty, v. 2" by H. J. Wilmot-Buxton is a collection of sermons based on the Gospels and Epistles, written in the late 19th century. This volume, dedicated to Wilmot-Buxton's mother, presents theological reflections aimed at helping Christians understand their responsibilities and duties in their faith. The sermons explore themes such as mercy, humility, self-sacrifice, and the eternal consequences of one’s earthly actions, encouraging a life of service and devotion to God. The opening portion of the work introduces the overarching themes through specific sermons, beginning with "The Open Door." It emphasizes the importance of contemplating Heaven and living a life aligned with Christian virtues, contrasting the rich man and Lazarus in the second sermon to illustrate the peril of selfishness and the value of spiritual wealth. Throughout the early sections, the author underscores a call to action and reflection, addressing the burdens of everyday life, the necessity of love among believers, and the ultimate accountability each person has before God for their actions. Wilmot-Buxton encourages the reader to engage earnestly in their faith, marking the opening as a thoughtful guide for living a life of duty in service to others and God.
