Book The Pursuit of Belief   Christian Classics Collection

Download or read book The Pursuit of Belief Christian Classics Collection written by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-16 with total page 20399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pursuit of Belief - Christian Classics Collection encapsulates an extraordinary confluence of theological inquiry, philosophical meditation, and literary artistry. This anthology traverses a vast temporal landscape, from the patristic period to the threshold of the contemporary, gathering a multitude of voices that have shaped Christian thought and the broader cultural legacy of humanity. It juxtaposes the divine comedy of Dante Alighieri with the existential musings of Friedrich Nietzsche, the transcendental reflections of Ralph Waldo Emerson with the spiritual allegories of John Bunyan, and the mystic insights of St. Teresa of Ávila with the practical Christianity of Charles M. Sheldon, showcasing an unparalleled range of literary styles and theological perspectives. The collection stands as a testimony to the enduring dialogue between faith and reason, individual belief and societal norms. The contributing authors and editors, drawn from varied epochs and geographies, reflect a rich tapestry of historical, cultural, and intellectual contexts. Figures like Johann Wolfgang von Goethe and Leo Tolstoy stand alongside St. Augustine and Martin Luther, exemplifying the anthologys alignment with significant historical and literary movements. This diversity not only illuminates the multifaceted nature of Christian thought but also demonstrates how these varied voices contribute to a deeper, more nuanced understanding of the anthologys central themes. Such an assemblage encourages readers to discern the intricate relationships between faith, culture, and personal conviction across different periods and places. The Pursuit of Belief - Christian Classics Collection is an indispensable volume for those interested in the intersection of faith, literature, and philosophy. It offers readers the unique opportunity to engage with a wide array of perspectives and themes, encouraging a comprehensive exploration of Christian belief as both a personal journey and a collective experience. This anthology is not merely a scholarly endeavor but a voyage through time and thought, inviting readers to ponder profound questions and explore the myriad ways in which the pursuit of belief shapes our understanding of the world and ourselves. As such, it is highly recommended for students, scholars, and anyone with a keen interest in the historical and philosophical dimensions of faith.

Book The Higher Criticism  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Higher Criticism Classic Reprint written by Dyson Hague and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Higher Criticism How is it, then, that the Higher Criticism has become identified in the popular mind with attacks upon the Bible and the supernatural character of the Holy Scriptures? The reason is this. No study perhaps requires so devout a spirit and so exalted a faith in the supernatural as the pur suit of the Higher Criticism. It demands at once the ability of the scholar, and the simplicity of the believing child of God. For without faith no one can explain the Holy Scriptures, and without scholarship no one can investigate historic origins.

Book The Ancient Faith in Modern Light  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Ancient Faith in Modern Light Classic Reprint written by T. Vincent Tymms and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ancient Faith in Modern Light The following Essays, by members of a society of ministers accustomed to meet for free and brotherly conference, are intended to reassert, from a modern point of view, great fundamental verities of the Christian Faith, and to indicate some of their varied applications. To distinguish between the permanent and the transient in Religion is one of the gravest and hardest tasks of the theologian. In every age there is a "removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain." Too often, indeed, in the eager desire for progress, the distinction is missed; and in the criticism of human theories and systems the Divine thought that underlies them is left out of sight. To avoid this error has been the great aim of the Essayists, whose long experience as Christian teachers, with much close observation of the thoughts and tendencies of the time, has led them to cling with ever-increasing confidence to the truths which are unchanging and essential.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Higher Criticism: An Address Nearly half a century later there arose Ferdinand Christian Baur, the originator of the Tubingen School, who caught much of his inspiration as a scholar and critic from Eichhorn, and was accounted by his con temporaries a man of exceptional gifts and attain ments. Like Eichhorn he denied miracles. Assum ing the impossibility of any departure from natural law, he entered, only to vitiate, the whole field of his research. He created theological distinctions in the Epistles of Paul and of Peter, which were the creation of his own fertile brain, deprecated the supernatural element of both, and pronounced the religious zeal of great leaders of religious thought simply the fervor of speculation and the pride of Opinion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Princeton Review: October, 1848 In 1822 the first marriage was celebrated in the forms of Christianity, both the parties being natives, and the 'man Thomas Hopcio, the Cornwall student, and now a member of the church. In 1823 the Christian rites of burial were first witnessed at the interment Of an infant child of one of the mis sionary families. Three days afterwards, at the king's request, similar services were substituted, at the funeral of one of his relatives, for the usual sacrifices of animals, and the depositing, by night, of the uncoflined remains in the enclosure of the idola trous morai. Soon afterwards the royal authority of Oahu was induced - by what considerations Mr. Bingham does not fully state - to require the observance of the Lord's day, so far as to prohibit labour and amusements. Even the food for the Sabbath was prepared on Saturday. The king was, at this time, a habitual drunkard, though he I had fixed a time - five years to turn and be a good man. One of his excuses for not encouraging public worship by his presence was, I am tipsy, and it is not right to go to church drunk; when I have got through I will come. One of the courtiers said when the king attends I will attend, and another Whom the invitation found at cards, I have business and cannot go - my heart will belwith you, though my body is here - so primitive are these fashionable hypocrisies.

Book Darwinian Evolution and Classical Liberalism

Download or read book Darwinian Evolution and Classical Liberalism written by Stephen C. Dilley and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2013-05-02 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Darwinian Evolution and Classical Liberalism canvasses an array of thinkers from the past to the present as it examines fundamental political, philosophical, ethical, economic, anthropological, and scientific aspects of the ferment between Darwinian biology and classical liberalism. Early chapters focus on classical thinkers like John Locke and Adam Smith, while later chapters provide analyses of present-day classical liberals, focusing especially on F.A. Hayek, Thomas Sowell, and Larry Arnhart, the most prominent advocates of ‘contemporary’ classical liberalism. Thematically, the volume falls into three parts. Part I examines foundational matters, arguing that Darwinism and classical liberalism hold incompatible visions of morality, human nature, and individual autonomy. This section also contends that the free market’s spontaneous order is fully compatible with a teleological (or non-Darwinian) view of the universe. Part II turns to contemporary applications, contending that Darwinism and classical liberalism are at odds in their views of (or implications about) limited government, vital religion, economic freedom, and the traditional family. This section also argues that, since its inception, Darwinism has attenuated core tenets and values of classical liberalism and Western civilization. Part III of the volume contains alternative views to those in the first two parts, adding critical diversity to the book. Respectively, these chapters hold that Darwinian evolution simply has little to say about classical liberalism; an evolutionary account of human volition is fully compatible with the individual choice presupposed in classical liberalism; and evolutionary naturalism, unlike religious alternatives, provides a strong foundation for freedom, morality, and the traditional family.
