Download or read book CHURCH OF ENGLAND CLASSIC REP written by Edward William Watson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-05 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church of England Their fathers. Its faith, preached as univers ally true and necessary for salvation, its Worship, impressively carried out, struck their imagination and gained their assent. This Christianity was one. There was no thought that Christians could be Christian in different ways, or as members of different communions. Even when there were disputes and misunderstandings, as there were at first between English and Celtic Christians in England, they were at one in principle. The only dispute was as to the true following of the rule which all agreed must exist they would never have consented to differ in belief or in the organization of their Church. This unity was the lesson that had been impressed upon Christians by great doctrinal struggles through which agreement in faith had been reached, and by the training in uniformity of administration which they had received from the Roman Empire, under which their system had grown up and after whose pattern it had been largely shaped. In theory and in practice there was one faith and one organization, though the former might not always be intelligently held nor the latter efficiently administered.

This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reasons for Returning to the Church of England In laying these reasons before the public, I hope that I am not transgressing the rules of modesty, or thrusting my own private and per sonal affairs before the world. After all, it may be said, there is nothing very surprising in the fact that a person should change his mind on religious subjects, or that having joined the Church of Rome, he should afterwards discover that he had not thoroughly mastered the momentous question between that Church and the rest of Christendom. Why, then, should I trouble the world with statements which would be regarded with indifference by all except my own personal friends and acquaintances?

Book Seven Champions of Christendom  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Seven Champions of Christendom Classic Reprint written by Richard Johnson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seven Champions of Christendom The materials which Johnson has so skilfully worked up into a history, equally poetic and romantic, he doubtless found in the traditional tales and knight errantry common in his day throughout Europe, and which have been largely drawn upon by the romance writers of other countries. There are occasional de tails and allusions in the original version, which, although, if judged by the standard of the period, they could not fairly be objected to, have been omitted in the present edition, as perhaps too coarse for the more sensitive modern reader; and the work generally has been slightly condensed, where this could be done without affecting the continuity of the narrative. It is believed that, in its present form, the Famous Historie will be acceptable to many who have but a dim recollection of the fascination of its pages before the existing phalanx of modern novels had almost driven it from the field, and will be welcome reading to the youth of both sexes who have had no farther opportunity of making the acquaintance of its heroes than that afforded by the exploits of St George and the Dragon in the arena of an amphitheatre.

Book The Catholic Spirit in Modern English Literature  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Catholic Spirit in Modern English Literature Classic Reprint written by George N. Shuster and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Catholic Spirit in Modern English Literature Modern literature is largely made up of deliberate, if somewhat ornate, pamphleteering. It is a great written debate between the exponents of different ways of living and looking upon life. Never before have solutions so divergent been offered to the riddle of human destiny and never have the protagonists been more belligerent. We all feel that the older English letters were concerned with an established point of view; that, while Spenser was an Anglican and Milton a Puritan, their human creed, their idea of man, was substantially the same. But the pressure of these latter days has lain heavily on every kind of art; and literature has been forced to voice the protest or the defense of a multitude of individuals deriving their strength from sources which have very little in common. In many ways the influence of this state of affairs has been evil and has led to recklessness and perversity in the statement of opinion, as well as to the abandonment by a large portion of the reading public of anything like standards, not only of judgment but even of taste. On the other hand, there are many who as a result of the modern upheaval have grown quite tired of eccentricity and faddishness; who are convinced as men otherwise circumstanced could scarcely be convinced, that some basic philosophy is needed to save art from ruinous futility.
