Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Christmas Sermon I shall have been talking for twelve months 1 and it is thought I should take my leave in a formal and seasonable manner. Valedictory eloquence is rare, and death-bed say ings have not often hit the mark of the occasion. Charles Second, Wit and sceptic, a man Whose life had been one long lesson in human in credulity, an easy-going comrade, a manoeuvring king - remembered and embodied all his Wit and scepticism along with more than his usual good humour in the famous I am afraid, gentlemen, I am an unconscionable time a-dying.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christmas Sermons This passage has ordinarily been regarded as the first glimpse of Christ and His work to be caught from the Old Testament. It has long been called the first of the Messianic passages. Our fathers saw in these words a definite prediction of the coming of Jesus and of His triumph over evil. Christ was the seed of the woman to whom the author looked for the world's redemption. In later days the critical students have swung far to the Opposite direction. Accord ing to such students the author is not think ing of Christ at all. He is thinking simply of the con ict raised between man and evil at the very beginning of human existence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Christmas Sermons: Sunday, December 25, 1881 If we had limited ourselves to our original purpose, and printed this little book simply as a memorial gift to members of our family, no apology or explanation would have been needed. Now that we have decided to offer to a wider circle of those who are bereaved in the departure of our father, these utterances of "the comfort wherewith we were comforted of God" on the sorrowful yet joyful Christmas-day just past, perhaps the exceptional character and circumstances of the book will still excuse us from any long preface. These three sermons are printed as nearly as may be, in the form in which they were preached; but the third, not having been originally written, has had to be reproduced from memory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Advent, Christmas, New Year, Easter: And Other Sermons The sermons comprising this volume were, for the most part, preached on consecutive Sunday mornings or evenings. Those on the Wells of the Bible were preached during the summer; the others, with the exception of the Anniversary Sermon, were preached quite recently in the regular order Of the author's ministry. The sermon com memorating the thirty-fifth anniversary Of the pas torate, although somewhat out of date as compared with the other sermons, is given because of the intrinsic interest in the facts it gives concerning the kingdom of God. In their publication it has been thought best to retain the style of pulpit address. The author sincerely hopes that these sermons may help all readers to makedue preparation for the Second Advent of Christ, whose first Advent the earlier sermons in the volume are intended to honor.

Download or read book Freeing Jesus written by Diana Butler Bass and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The award-winning author of Grateful goes beyond the culture wars to offer a refreshing take on the comprehensive, multi-faceted nature of Jesus, keeping his teachings relevant and alive in our daily lives. How can you still be a Christian? This is the most common question Diana Butler Bass is asked today. It is a question that many believers ponder as they wrestle with disappointment and disillusionment in their church and its leadership. But while many Christians have left their churches, they cannot leave their faith behind. In Freeing Jesus, Bass challenges the idea that Jesus can only be understood in static, one-dimensional ways and asks us to instead consider a life where Jesus grows with us and helps us through life’s challenges in several capacities: as Friend, Teacher, Savior, Lord, Way, and Presence. Freeing Jesus is an invitation to leave the religious wars behind and rediscover Jesus in all his many manifestations, to experience Jesus beyond the narrow confines we have built around him. It renews our hope in faith and worship at a time when we need it most.
Download or read book The Carpenter s Son the Leader of Men written by Jenkin Loyd Jones and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Carpenter's Son, the Leader of Men: A Christmas Preparation Sermon The birth and cradle legends of Buddha are fra grant as a flower garden, but in rejecting them as his tory, I am guilty of no irreverence and my denials savor of no profanity. So with this carpenter's son: I remember that all these gospel narratives are but the inadequate and sometimes incoherent transcription of traditions gathered from the loving but oftentimes fantastic re production of the imaginations and recollections of im perfect and untrained minds from fifty to one hundred and fifty years after the fertile life had been closed on Calvary. I remember that the alleged genealogies of this Nazarene are obviously imperfect, fanciful, even grotesque. These very fancies, or those like them, were in the world before the founder of Christianity was born. And the one throws light upon the other. And so I must go back of legend and miracle, below the myth and tradition, and find more adequate founda tions for the reverence of the world and a higher claim for my own interest in and loyalty to the road-side texts and lake-side parables which were dropped into the fertile soil of the human heart where they germina ted, bloomed and bore fruit. I know that the peasant was soon lost in the Savior, and that Jesus, who was indeed the Son of God, as was his carpenter father before him, soon became the Christ, or God the Son; a confusion easily explained by the student of psychol ogy; a confusion that was not all a mistake, but there comes a time when the confusion is damaging.

Download or read book Sermons of Christmas Evans written by Joseph Cross and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sermons of Christmas Evans: A New Translation From the Welsh, With a Memoir and Portraiture of the Author The introduction of Christianity into Britain is said to have taken place about sixty-three years after the crucifixion. By whose agency it was effected, cannot now be satisfactorily determined. Tradition has ascribed it to Joseph of Arimathea. This, however, is exceedingly doubtful. It has also been attributed to the apostle Paul. That the apostle Paul visited Britain, is quite probable, from the testimony of Theodoret and Jerome. That he was the first preacher of the gospel in Britain, is certainly a mistake. The weight of evidence seems to be in favour of Claudia, a Welsh lady, belonging to Caesar's household. The circumstances were these: - The Romans invaded Britain about fifty years before the incarnation. Failing to conquer the Welsh, they made peace with them, and dwelt among them in amity. Many Welsh soldiers joined the Roman army, and several Welsh families went and resided at Rome. Among the latter were Claudia and her husband. Saint Paul was then a prisoner under Nero; dwelling, however, "in his own hired house," and receiving all who came to hear the word of God. Under his ministry, Claudia was converted to Christianity. She soon returned to her native country, and scattered "the Seed of the Kingdom" among her own people. This was in the year of our Lord sixty-three. About a century after this, Faganus and Daminicanus went to Rome, were converted there, and became "able ministers of the New Testament." In the year of our Lord 180, they were sent back to Wales, to preach to their own countrymen. They were zealous and successful laborers. They opposed the pagan superstitions of the Welsh with wonderful energy. They pursued Druidism to its dark retirements, and poured upon it the withering blaze of the gospel.
