London reaches all the zones as easily as Rome reached the territories of Augustus. You remember there was a day when a traveller might start from Alexandria, in Egypt, and, passing over the substantial basaltic pavement of the old Roman highways, drive to Carthage, then to Gibraltar, and on through Spain and France.

Download or read book The Bible and Modern Thought Classic Reprint written by T. R. Birks and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bible and Modern Thought The present volume was written last spring, in compliance with a request from the Committee of the Tract Society, in order to supply some antidote, in a popular form, to that dangerous school of thought, which denies the miracles of the Bible, explains away its prophecies, and sets aside its Divine authority. Various circumstances have occasioned some unexpected delay in its publication. Though suggested by the appearance of the Essays and Reviews, which have gained so wide a notoriety, it is not, of course, a direct and formal reply to them. It is designed for the use of thoughtful Christians, or serious inquirers, who may have been perplexed by modern speculations, and not for scholars and learned divines. My aim has been to treat the subject of the Christian evidences and the authority of the Bible in a simple, clear, and solid style of argument, logically connected and continuous; and to deal with recent objections only so far as they lie directly in the way, and, like the lions in the allegory, block up the road of the Christian pilgrim to the palace of heavenly truth.

Download or read book Jesus and Modern Thought Classic Reprint written by Stopford Augustus Brooke and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-20 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Jesus and Modern Thought This and kindred questions have always arisen, and the result has been, both in and outside the Church, that the life and death of Jesus have become subjects of such complex metaphysical discussions - as to how he could sufi'er, grow, increase in wisdom, be tempted or even die, that all simplicity of thought upon the matter is at an end. Then men who do not take pleasure in solving intellectual problems, and who want some clear foundation for spiritual feeling, end at last in feeling towards Jesus in two plain fashions - either as if he were wholly a man, or as if he were wholly God. In the first instance they really believe what we be lieve, whether they stay or not in the Churches; in the second, they tend to lose sight of God the Father altogether, and to replace Him in their hearts by Jesus; or they worship, as they want them, two Gods. Many abide easily in conclusions of this Second kind, but as many are at last driven to ask - Is all this really conceivable, or if conceivable, is it comforting Then they are obliged to confess that they are in a maze, and have but little consolation in losing themselves therein.

Download or read book Faith and Modern Thought Classic Reprint written by Ransom B. Welch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Faith and Modern Thought The occasion of this little volume may be found in the spirit of modern discussion. The title - Faith and Modern Thought - was chosen by the writer long before he knew that a similar subject - Christianity and Modern Thought - had been proposed for a course of lectures in Boston, during the winter of 1875-6. The material is composed, in part, of essays prepared for special occasions, and subsequently published in Quarterly Reviews. If, in defence of certain positions, plain words have been employed, they are in reply to plain words employed in attack. If it be questioned whether the spirit of the book is in too close sympathy with the spirit of the time, the author has no reply to make; if it be asserted, he has no apology to offer. Earnest inquiry everywhere prevails. Old theories are scrutinized; new theories are criticised. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Missions and Modern Thought Classic Reprint written by William Owen Carver and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Missions and Modern Thought Every institution and activity of Christianity finds itself challenged at the bar of modern thought. The glory of this age is its skepticism which is the natural outcome of its extensive discoveries. It is not to be taken for granted that modern thought is always right and that all that is not modern must either give place to what is new or adjust itself to it. The adjustment must Often be made from the other side. A new railway compels many established things to make way for it, but some of the mountains and the rivers compel the new railway to take them into account, and adjust itself to their permanence. Yet our life and work are in the modern world and it is our business at least to' seek to understand the relations of whatever we deem worth while to the spirit and tendencies of our times. It is hoped that the following pages may contribute somewhat to defining the relations of the missionary enterprise of the Church to the thought of the time in which we live.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution and Modern Thought Like all great movements of the human spirit, Christianity also shares this inborn confidence in its authorized standard, thought to be handed down from above. This excuse in defense of Christian religion has ever firmly knit together this confidence by the blank unmeditated opposition of Christianity to all that is non-christian, depreciating the latter to a homogeneous mass of human error, and vice, ex alting the former to immediate divine dignity, accredited as such by outer and inner miracle, as will be shown in this book. The old position held by all Christians in all ages, is that all ecclesiastical history presents absolute truth, proved to be such, because miraculously authenticated to be due to divine communication.

Download or read book The Place of Christ in Modern Theology Classic Reprint written by A. M. Fairbairn and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Place of Christ in Modern Theology Treatises in Systematic Theology are not so common as they once were, nor are they so easy either to write or to read. Criticism has become so much a mental habit and has changed so many things that we find it hard to be patient with any process that is not critical, or to agree with any principle or method that professes to be constructive. Construction, indeed, without criticism is sure to be invalid; but the criticism which does not either end in construction or make it more possible, is quite as surely without any scientific character or function. Hence, though modern criticism, philosophical, literary, and historical, has made systematic treatises of the old order impossible, it has only made a new endeavour at construction the more necessary. This book does not profess or claim to be a system of theology, but it is an attempt at formulating the fundamental or material conception of such a system; or, in other words, it is an endeavour through a Christian doctrine of God at a sketch of the first lines of a Christian Theology.

These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside Christianity and Modern Thought: Look inside the book: For-after all that has been said about the restless and dissatisfied condition of the critical and conscious thought of the time, and the scepticism of the learned, or the speculative class, or of the new thinkers born of the physical progress of the age, and the decay of worship in the literary and artistic, the editorial and poetical circles-it remains to be said, that, leaving this important and valuable body of people aside, -not badly employed, and not without personal warrant for their doubts and withdrawal from positive institutions, -there remains a mighty majority, on whom the Christian religion and historical faith and the external church have a vigorous and unyielding hold; whose practical instincts and grand common-sense and hereditary experience anchor them safely in positive faith, while the scepticism raves without and blows itself clear, and passes over. ...When sacramental mysteries are exploded, when the official sanctity of the ministry is disowned, when the technical and dogmatic conditions of acceptance with God are abandoned, when every man's right of private judgment is confessed, when common sense is invited into the inner court of faith, when every man is confessed to be a king and a priest in that temple of God which he finds in his own body and soul, when real, genuine goodness is owned as the equivalent of religion, then it is evident that the support of religious institutions, of public worship, of the church and the ordinances, must appeal to something besides thePg 25 ignorance, the fears, the superstitions, the traditions of the Christian world.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Faith and Modern Thought: Six Lectures The lectures printed in this volume were delivered, under the auspices of the London Intercollegiate Christian Unions, in St. James's Hall, London, during November and December, 1909, to audiences of men and women students of the University. They are now issued in a form convenient for use by those who desire to study the fundamental problems of the Christian Faith. Those who heard the course were impressed by the personality of the lecturer, by the simplicity of his words, the candour of his reasoning and the directness of his appeal. They felt that they were listening to one who, with courage and independence of mind, had faced the issues for himself and who spoke out, without flinching, the truth to which he had fought his way.

Download or read book The Resurrection and Modern Thought Classic Reprint written by W. J. Sparrow Simpson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Resurrection and Modern Thought It is characteristic of many writings on the Resurrection of our Lord that they concentrate attention chiefly upon the evidences, while giving scanty recognition to the theology. This is, surely, even from an evidential standpoint, to be regretted; because the fact itself acquires a different value when seen to occupy a central place in a religious interpretation of human life and destiny. The writer is conscious of having dwelt insufficiently upon the doctrine in the volume which he was allowed to contribute to the Oxford Library of Practical Theology. An attempt was made to supplement this in an article contributed to Hastings' 'Dictionary of Christ and the Gospels.' But the exigences of space precluded a full discussion. A study of the theology and of the history of the doctrine is offered in the following pages. Of central importance are the changes caused in S. Paul's theology by his experience of the manifested presence of the Risen Lord. The doctrinal conclusions drawn from the Resurrection in the Mission Sermons of the Acts should receive the most careful study. Then comes, in its matured development, the theology of the Resurrection as expounded by S. Paul: its bearing on our Lord's Divinity; its effect in the process of His exaltation; its effect on the justification of the Christian Community, on the moral and physical Resurrection of individuals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Person of Christ in Modern Thought: The First Series of Donnellan Lectures for the Year 1911-1912 The present volume contains the First Series of Donnellan Lectures for the year 1911-1912. The Second Series on The Work of Christ in Modern Thought will, it is hoped, be submitted to the public in a year's time. The Reformed Churches are now in a very similar position to the mediaeval Churches at the beginning of the Sixteenth Century. The new learning and the discovery of America had opened up whole vistas of knowledge, the very existence of which had never entered into the minds of the creative theologians of mediaeval times, and the difference between the Renaissance and the theological worldviews was pain fully apparent. Only the experimental exposure of the moral impotence of secularism enabled the advocates of Christian faith to get a hearing. Even then, the restatement in terms of the new thought and learning of the truth as it is in Jesus by the great creative theologians of the Sixteenth Century alone could regain for Christianity its legitimate dominance over the intellects as well as the hearts of men.
