| Summary | "Is the Young Man Absalom Safe?" by David Wright is a sermon published in the late 19th century. This religious text centers on the biblical story of King David and his son Absalom, reflecting on themes of parental love, the moral state of the youth, and the relationship between human actions and divine judgment. The sermon is rooted in Christian teachings and uses scripture as a foundation for its messages. In this sermon, Wright examines the poignant relationship between David and Absalom, particularly the father's desperate inquiry about his son's safety after a significant rebellion. The narrative illustrates not only the complexities of parental love and loss but also the concerns of a society witnessing the moral decline of its youth. Through his reflections, Wright urges listeners to consider the dangers facing the younger generation, emphasizing the importance of faith in God as a guiding principle for safety and righteousness in life. He warns against the perils of neglecting spiritual and moral responsibilities while asserting the need for young people to hold fast to their belief in God to navigate the challenges of their time.
