| 520 | _a"The Sin and Danger of Self-Love" by Robert Cushman is a sermon delivered in Plymouth, New England, in the early 17th century. This religious discourse reflects on the theme of self-love, emphasizing its detrimental effects on individuals and the community. Written during a period of early American colonialism, the text engages with theological teachings, particularly from the Apostle Paul, advocating for the importance of selflessness and the mutual welfare of society. In this sermon, Cushman draws from biblical principles to articulate the dangers associated with self-love, warning that excessive focus on one's own desires can lead to moral failings and societal discord. He discusses the various ways individuals pursue their own interests—through avarice, pleasure-seeking, and the desire for honor—ultimately urging the congregation to shift their focus toward the welfare of others. Cushman posits that true fulfillment and community strength arise from self-denial and a commitment to shared well-being. Through scriptural references and moral exhortations, the sermon aims to inspire reflection and action against the perils of self-seeking behavior in a new and challenging world.
