Sermon:

God's Anvil

Preached at: Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church
Date: September 29, 1985
Dr. Kennedy says, “I once saw a painting of a large anvil. And around the anvil on the floor there lay scattered dozens of broken, shattered, smashed hammers. And underneath the words from the scriptures: ‘The word of our Lord endureth forever.’ God’s anvil is an appropriate metaphor for the Word of God, which has endured the attacks of innumerable skeptics and unbelievers and yet still stands, unscathed in spite of the onslaught of the ages. ‘Hammer away, ye hostile hands, your hammers break, God’s anvil stands.’ Dr. Kennedy shows how God, in a supernatural way, has sustained His Word down through the centuries against attacks from all classes and ranks of men.
