Book excerpt: Excerpt from Apologetics or a Treatise on Christian Evidences Some things are true in all religions. Each system seems to have, in a sense, its historical basis. Each sets up its claim of supernatural origin. But, one by one, as they are subjected to a critical analysis, and the severe test of truth is faithfully applied, their claims, which are fundamental, are found to consist in myth, not in fact. Christianity, which is founded on the Old and the New Testaments, is an exception to the above statement. The more severe, the broader, and the more scientific the tests which have been applied to Christianity, the more invulnerable has it proved to such attacks. Recognizing the facts set up in the Holy Scriptures, first, that they are a revelation from God, setting forth both the religious and political history of Israel which, under the guidance of God, was in due time to bring forth a Saviour that would redeem the world from sin and death; second, that in the person of Jesus Christ, the world's Saviour and Redeemer has actually come, and that the statements made in the Old and the New Testaments concerning the development of Israel and the records respecting Jesus Christ are historically true - these are some of the claims set forth in the Christian system -the Christian apologist ought to see that his defense of Christianity must be more than simply negative. As a satisfactory working basis for religious hope and activity he must prove the facts of Christianity beyond a reasonable doubt. To do this has been the intent of the author.

This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Apologetics, or a System of Christian Evidence Christ Jesus. Except He had come from the world beyond and told us things which otherwsie would have been un known, our knowledge had become limited and our salvation impossible. If we only knew and were sure in regard to these things, some answer; but one thing is certain, that if the Bible does not make us certain, no other book will, and the reading of the words of Jesus is overpowering. When we study comparatively the ethnic religions and the sayings of their best men, we feel that Christianity is the climax in religion and Christ is the only Master. The best apology of the Bible is the Bible, and the best apologist of Christ is He Himself. If the New Testament would be constantly and prayerfully read by inquirers, there would be no need of Christian apologies, but as things are, both Christian evi dence and Apologetics are necessary and useful. Even if we must regret the paucity of thorough-paced Bible students and good readers of the Scriptures, we re j oice in the fact that there is no book within the bounds of Christianity as much read as the Bible and especially the New Testament. When the number of readers of books like Paine's The Age of Reason grow less and less, the Bible gains a more and more extended circle of devoted friends. The modern attacks on the Bible have proved what a strong fortress the Bible is. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Christian Apologetics The object of this series is to provide for the clergy and laity of the Church as statement, in convenient form, of its Doctrine, Discipline and Worship - as well as to meet the often expressed desire on the part of Examining Chaplains for textbooks which they could recommend to Candidates for Holy Orders. To satisfy, on the one hand, the demand of general readers among the clergy and laity, the books have been provided with numerous references to larger works, making them introductory in their nature; and on the other hand, to make them valuable for use in canonical examinations, they have been arranged according to the Canons of the Church which deal with that matter. It is the earnest hope of the collaborators in this series that the impartial scholarship and unbiased attitude adopted throughout, will commend themselves to Churchmen of all types, and that the books will therefore be accorded a general reception and adopted as far as possible as a norm for canonical examinations. The need of such a norm is well known to all. And finally a word to Examining Chaplains. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Apologetics: A Defense of the Catholic Faith Mgr. Fontenau, Archbishop of Albi, writes: Under a modest title and in a simple and unpretentious form you have united in a single volume all the arguments which Catholic controversy opposes to contemporary irreligion. Exegesis, philosophy, theology, history, physical sciences, political economy, all branches Of knowledge, human and divine, concur in your work to demonstrate incontestably the perfect agreement of reason and faith. The proofs are abundant, well chosen, and well presented, the arguments nervous and powerful, the style clear, sober, and precise. Your Course of Christian Apologetics, therefore, is not only an instructive book, it is also a finished model of methodical exposition and learned discussion. For these reasons it is truly a most valuable work. Therefore I should like to see it in the library of my seminarians and priests; they will find in it all the elements of Catholic controversy and learn from it how to use them. Mgr. Vigne, Archbishop of Avignon, writes: I shall recom mend it the more willingly that, in my Opinion, it meets the needs of our time, and that, in addition to its being incontestably opportune, it has the essential merit of clearness, solidity of doctrine, and brevity. Ignorance Of the truths of religion is the great evil Of our day, and undoubtedly one of the chief causes of the weakening of the faith among us. Therefore, Rev. Father I should like to see your book in the hands of all young people. Mgr. Sebaux, Bishop of Angouleme, writes: I am happy to unite my suffrage with that Of my venerable colleagues. The book is so clear, so well arranged, and so suited to the condition of minds of the present day that it will render most valuable service. I shall gladly recommend it, and I earnestly desire to see it not only in the hands of the most advanced pupils of our institutions, but also of men of letters, whom a defective religious training has left in ignorance of the decisive reasons of our faith, or who are in a state Of doubt created by Objections which they know not how to answer.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Apologetics: The Lectures Constituting the Course in Ethics and Apologetics "To believe in Christianity, without knowing why we believe it, is not Christian faith, but blind credulity." - Whately. "Though we cannot always give a reason for what we believe, we should give a reason why we believe it." - Boyle. "Be ready always to give an answer to every one that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you." - 1 Peter iii, 15. To him who would approach the subject of Christian Apologetics, two introductory questions suggest themselves: 1. Why do I believe that I am a Christian? 2. Why am I a Christian in my belief? These questions differ more in meaning than in language. The first looks for its answer to the past: and personal and sacred experiences are recalled. We may answer a. From the remembrance of sudden conversion; of a gradual tendency towards Christ from early education: From something which has opened the blind eyes, or softened the heart. b. Our present love and obedience give us an additional source of faith in the fact that we are Christians. To the second question, why am I a Christian in belief? and not a Jew, Pagan, Atheist, various answers may be given. a. Providential reasons may have decided; early education or circumstances. But you must be able to point to some elements of Christianity which have secured your deliberate choice. You cannot say as a rational believer, that you merely follow the faith of your fathers. b. You may say, I have adopted the faith of Christendom as that of the enlightened part of the world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
