Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a Christian, are we a witness to something or of something? Alternately, are we a witness to someone or of someone? The way we answer these questions will determine our worldview. Here, we will study these questions from a true Christian perspective. In this study we will look at the following: What is Christian charity? What is Christian love? Are we justified by our works or by our faith? Does the law and its commandments apply to us? What does it mean to love our neighbour? What does it mean to love our enemy? What is Christian mercy? And, what is the Ultimate source of love?Once we know and understand the answers, we will ask and answer another: As a Christian, how do we now live our life accordingly?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Charity Explained: Or the Influence of Religion Upon Temper Stated; In an Exposition of the Thirteenth Chapter of the First Epistle to the Corinthians A work which the Author published a few years since, on the Duties of Church Members, concludes with the following sentence: - "Let us remember, that humility and Love are the necessary fruits of our doctrines, the highest beauty of our character, and the guardian angels of our churches." To prove and elucidate this sentiment, and to state at greater length than it was possible for him to do in that treatise, the nature, operations, and importance of charity; he was induced to eater upon a series of Discourses on the chapter which is the subject of this volume: These Discourses, were heard with much attention, and apparent interest. Before they were finished, many requests were presented for their publication; a promise was given to that effect, and the intention announced to the Public. On a further inspection of his notes, the Author saw so little that was either novel, or on any account worthy to meet the public eye, that he had for two years quite abandoned his intention of printing. Circumstances which need not be mentioned, together with frequent inquiries from his friends after the forthcoming treatise, drew his attention again to the subject a few months since, and revived the original purpose of sending from the press the substance of these plain and practical Discourses. That intention is now executed; with what results, the sovereign grace of Jehovah, to which it is humbly commended, must determine. The Author offers this volume primarily and chiefly to his own friends, to whom it is dedicated. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Charity in the Ancient Church Our Lord calls the commandment of love which He gave to His disciples a new commandment (john xiii. And such indeed it was, for the world before Christ came was a world without love. Lactantius, writing at the time when, after a struggle which had lasted for cen turies, Christianity had at length obtained the upper hand, lays great emphasis upon this difference between the Christian and the heathen world, saying Compas sion and humanity are virtues peculiar to the righteous and to the worshippers of God. Philosophy teaches us nothing of them.1 And should this witness, as coming from one who was himself a Christian, appear suspicious, there is still quite trustworthy evidence in the astonishment with which the heathen regarded the charitableness of the Christians, which seemed so strange to them; and a still stronger witness may be seen in the endeavour of the Emperor Julian to introduce into heathendom this new thing, which he could not but recognise as a peculiarity of Christianity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ALL TRUE GRACE IS SUMMED UP IN CHARITY "but the greatest of these is charity." - 1 Corinthians 13:13 In these words we observe that something is spoken of as of special importance, and as peculiarly essential in Christians, which the apostle calls charity. And this charity, we find, is abundantly insisted on in the New Testament by Christ and His apostles-more insisted on, indeed, than any other virtue. But, then, the word "charity," as used in the New Testament, is of much more extensive signification than as it is used generally in common discourse. What persons very often mean by "charity," in their ordinary conversation, is a disposition to hope and think the best of others, and to put a good construction on their words and behavior. Sometimes the word is used for a disposition to give to the poor. But these things are only certain particular branches or fruits of that great virtue of charity which is so much insisted on throughout the New Testament. The word properly signifies love, or that disposition or affection whereby one is dear to another; and the original agape which is here translated "charity," might better have been rendered "love," for that is the proper English of it. So that by charity in the New Testament is meant the very same thing as Christian love. Though it be more frequently used for love to men, yet sometimes it is used to signify not only love to men, but love to God.

Download or read book The Good Steward Or Systematic Beneficence written by D. X. Junkin and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Good Steward, or Systematic Beneficence: An Essential Element of Christianity To accomplish these glorious results, Christianity is a perfect instrumentality; not as a dead organism, but as a system of life, deriving its efficiency from "the Spirit of life." It is not a beautiful theory slumbering upon the sacred page, or floating unpractised in the intellect: but it is the impulse and the guide of a new life in man. Indeed we would not apply the name Christianity to the system of truth, apart from the life-giving Spirit. A human body, though perfect in its parts, is not a man, if the soul be absent. The system of sacred truth becomes Christianity only when, by the Divine Spirit, it is made alive and operative in the hearts and practice of believers. As our Lord is called Christ, because he is the anointed Mediator - anointed by the immeasurable unction of the Holy Ghost: so the gospel scheme becomes Christianity only by the anointing which abideth in the believer, and teacheth him all things. 1 John ii. 27. Christianity is "a ministration of the Spirit." 1 Cor. iii. 8. It is "the law of the Spirit of life, making free from the law of sin and death." Rom. viii. 2. The Holy Spirit is the agent, and gospel truth the instrumentality, by which "the life of God in the soul of man" is begun, developed, and perfected.
