Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychological Aspect of the Doctrines of Sin and Salvation The following statement from Dr. G. Stanley Hall presents an enlightening View of the Bible: It is, however, our great good fortune to live in'a'n age when our Bible is being slowly re-revealed as the best utterance and reflex of the nature and needs of the soul of man, as his great text-book in psychology, dealing with him as a whole, body, mind, heart and will. And all in the largest and deepest relation to nature and to his fellow man, which has been so misunderstood simply because it has been so deeply divine.

Download or read book The Harmony of Divine Truth Classic Reprint written by Seth Williston and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Harmony of Divine Truth How it can be accounted for, that the term truth should have been selected by the inspired writers, (or rather by the Spirit of inspiration.) to distinguish the religion which they exhibit, from every other system in the world, if at the same time they had considered it as a mere moral chaos, made for our plastic hands to mould and shape into such creeds as should please every man's own fancy? It is worthy to be noted that the sacred volume makes a very copious* use of this term, applying it to every department Of religion. For itself, as an inspired book, it claims the honor of being called the scripture of truth, and the word of truth. Dan. X. 21. Eph. I. 13. Is not the Bible thus manifestly distinguished from the Koran of the Mahometan's, and the Shasters of the Brahmins, and from every other book which sets up a claim to inspiration? The God of the Bible is called the true God, his beloved Son is called the true Witness, and his Holy Spirit the Spirit of truth and why, except to distinguish Jehovah from idols, his Son from false Christs, and the Holy Ghost from Satan, and every other lying spirit? The doctrines we are required to believe, are denominated the truth, to distinguish them from the doctrines of devils, and from delusive errors of every kind; and the belief of these doctrines, when it is wrought in our hearts by the Spirit of God, is said to be truth and no lie, to distinguish it from a false faith which does not work by love. Also, that conduct which is required by the divine law, and which is the external expression of a heart conformed to it, is called obeying the truth. 1 Tim. Ii. 4. 1 John ii. 27. 2 John 4. The church of the living God, when considered as a community, composed Of men redeemed from iniquity, is called the pillar and ground Of the truth. 1 Tim. Iii. 15. See also Isa. Xxvi. 2. What an importance does it give to religious truth when we hear Christ Jesus witnessing this good confession before Pontius Pilate! TO this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. John xviii. 37. Surely that must be a thing of no small consequence, the establishment of which was the end of our Redeemer's birth, and the sole cause why he came into the world.

Download or read book Inventing God written by Jon Mills and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-22 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this controversial book, philosopher and psychoanalyst Jon Mills argues that God does not exist; and more provocatively, that God cannot exist as anything but an idea. Put concisely, God is a psychological creation signifying ultimate ideality. Mills argues that the idea or conception of God is the manifestation of humanity’s denial and response to natural deprivation; a self-relation to an internalized idealized object, the idealization of imagined value. After demonstrating the lack of any empirical evidence and the logical impossibility of God, Mills explains the psychological motivations underlying humanity’s need to invent a supreme being. In a highly nuanced analysis of unconscious processes informing the psychology of belief and institutionalized social ideology, he concludes that belief in God is the failure to accept our impending death and mourn natural absence for the delusion of divine presence. As an alternative to theistic faith, he offers a secular spirituality that emphasizes the quality of lived experience, the primacy of feeling and value inquiry, ethical self-consciousness, aesthetic and ecological sensibility, and authentic relationality toward self, other, and world as the pursuit of a beautiful soul in search of the numinous. Inventing God will be of interest to academics, scholars, lay audiences and students of religious studies, the humanities, philosophy, and psychoanalysis, among other disciplines. It will also appeal to psychotherapists, psychoanalysts and mental health professionals focusing on the integration of humanities and psychoanalysis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biblical Psychology, Vol. 1 of 4 During the life of Jesus Christ on earth, he rebuked those then professing to be explainers of God's Word thus - "Ye have taken away the key of knowledge." With equal justice might a similar accusation be brought, in this age, against our theologians - "Ye have taken away the key of knowledge. The Arch-Deceiver has once more destroyed the simple truth by Ye shall not surely die, by inculcating the immortality of the soul. Every religion must be based upon its own psychology. The assertion that the deity is the soul of the world, when credited, tends to Pantheism. By this system, the human soul is declared a discerption from the divine soul, and to be merged, at man's decease, into the Universal Spirit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A System of Biblical Psychology The translator is assured that nothing is needed on his part to commend this remarkable work to the philosophical student of theology in England, beyond an apology for the imperfections of the English garb in which it appears. The great and growing interest of the subject, and the profound and exhaustive learning which the author has brought to bear upon its treatment, had made the translation of this hook a desideratum to many, who only knew it by casual reference and quotation, long before this attempt was contemplated. But the hope that such a work would fall into thoroughly competent hands was indulged in vain, when, by the enterprise of the publishers of the Foreign Theological Library, the present translator was encouraged to do what he could to supply the need. The result of his endeavour is here presented to the English biblical student as a mine of wonderful depth and fertility, which will well repay those who have the courage to pierce through a somewhat unattractive surface.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Idea of the Holy: An Inquiry Into the Non-Rational Factor in the Idea of the Divine and Its Relation to the Rational IN this book I have ventured to write of that which may be called 'non-rational' or 'suprarational In the depths of the divine nature. I do not thereby want to promote in any way the tendency of our time towards an extravagant and fantastic irrationalism but rather to join issue with it in its morbid form. The irrational' is today a favourite theme of all who are too lazy to think or too ready to evade the arduous duty of clarifying their ideas and grounding their convictions on a basis of coherent thought. This book, recognizing the profound import Of the non-rational for meta physic, makes a serious attempt to analyse all the more exactly the feeling which remains where the concept fails, and to introduce a terminology which is not any the more loose or indeterminate for having necessarily to make use of symbols.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Perfect Life: In Experience and Doctrine, a Restatement It is good to see that the time has once more come round when the world of authors and of readers are interested in the persons who have had adventures with God. So far as Tolstoy, and William James, and Harold Begbie may have contributed to bring about the new relish, we will remember them with gratitude; so far as they have failed to exhaust the ideals and the fascinations of the highest Christian living, we will feel free, and even called upon, to continue our study of experience, and will continue to educe therefrom doctrine as sound and vital as we may be able. Meantime, in the present state of the public mind, a new work on "The Perfect Life in Experience and Doctrine" ought to be sure of a wide and warm welcome, not only in circles specifically religious, but also among all persons who approach the theme from the side of psychology, or of education, or of art, or of ethics, or of any other human interest.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Social Law in the Spiritual World: Studies in Human and Divine Inter-Relationship He is keenly watching the progress Of psychology. He is beginning to discover that every one Of his precious articles Of faith must finally submit to a psychological test. He has weathered geology and biology; can he peradventure bring his Ship past this new headland? It takes little reflection to discover that every thing which has been revealed or known, every intimation or utterance, has come through some body's consciousness. Truth is never found lying ready-made, done up in packages. It is not written for us in mystic letters across the sky. It rises out Of somebody's consciousness and gets uttered through somebody's lips. That means that in the last resort we must thoroughly investigate consciousness: Has it any laws? Can we find through it any criterion Of reality? Does it give us any basis Of right and wrong, Of truth and error? Does our private conscious ness spring out Of a deeper consciousness? Is mind, or soul, anything more than a comforting word, and does not the entire inner life finally reduce to brain vibration, set going by ether vibrations? Or at best, is not the individual mind the creator Of its own world and Of its own beliefs? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology of Prayer Religion, whatever else it may signify, belongs to the social aspects of our experience. It is relation to some other. It matters not that the other is not seen. The man of faith lives as seeing him who is invisible. He finds terms for this other in lan guage borrowed largely from human society. God is Father, Lord, King, Redeemer, Friend, the Great Companion. As implying social relation religion belongs therefore with other parts of life which in volve this adjustment to others, this union with others, to produce and become what would be impos sible for any one by himself alone. Whatever we may think of religious experience, it takes its place in human life and human history along with science, morality, and art, as a sphere in which man has developed a personality, a self, of peculiar range and quality. These aspects of human life as being in them selves most significant have repeatedly invited at tention. The eighteenth century made brilliant in vestigations in this field. The nineteenth century turned its interest largely to chemical and biological problems, and we reap the results in our industries, and in our control over disease. In its closing dec ades, a measure of scientific activity was directed upon the mental life, attacking at first chiefly the simple problems which could be studied in labora tories. But now with some of these more elementary problems on the way toward solution, interest is naturally turning again to what is after all of deep est interest - the world of personal relations. We have as yet scarcely made a beginning in applying to the more complex and more vitally important fields of life the scientific spirit and method which have disclosed new meaning and value in the world of nature. We are seeking to understand more fully what mind and Spirit mean in those capacities and activities due to social forces.

The essays have been rewritten and the subject enlarged upon so as to form a consistent whole. In the discussion of the subject, the author, while mindful of the verities, or established truths, has been hampered neither by the creeds of Christendom, nor the dictum of science. He cannot pretend to have fathomed the depths of the subject, since it is unfathomable. While he thus recognizes the limitations of finite faculties and the vastness of the sphere of unex plored knowledge, he has endeavored to be in all things rational. If he has succeeded in this endeavor he will abide with content any difference of opinion that may exist between the reader and himself.
