Book excerpt: Excerpt from Immortality of Man From the Standpoint of Reason The truths most interesting to us, as human beings, are those of our past, - before our birth into this world, of our future after we leave it, and of our duty while in it. These are facts, for the answer to which the eager cry of the human race forever goes up. What is man? Whence came he? Whither goes he? In the hands of what power is he?

This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dictum of Reason on Man's Immortality, or Divine Voices Outside of the Bible We are so made that, when we are normal, ' our Reason rules us: hence, so far as we are concerned, the Bible needs the endorsement of our reason before it can become a practical force; A Bible contrary to reason would be a rejected Book in the human world. The Dictum of Reason: That is one of the greatest powers known to humanity. Let no man despise Reason, for God does not. When he would win the faith of man, he appeals to it. Come and let us reason together saith the Lord. When reason speaks without bias, and according to the facts which it cognizes and collates, its deductions are none other than the voice of God, from which there is no appeal. As men, we were created in the image of God; and in nothing do we see more of God's image than in that faculty which we call reason.

This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Man and the Attainment of Immortality That this period of stress and of fierce challenge should have been without its influence on that whole range of thought and activity that may be covered by the word Religion, was not to be expected. If some were persuaded by the very course of things that the world in which they found themselves was indeed God's world, there were many on the other hand whose contribution to the scrap-heaps of the war was religion, or what they deemed to be religion. In addition to the moral issues that were involved in the question of what kind of a world it could be in which such a cataclysm was possible, there was the circumstance that the whole conduct of the war was a matter of exact science in a degree which was true of no previous war in history. The mathematician won greater victories than the musketeer: the engineer had everywhere laid the basis of success If there were branches of science that were put under heavy contri bution in the saving and restoring of human life, there was no corner of the known that had not been ransacked for the wherewithal to destroy it. It was science ordered, tested, exact, organised knowledge - that was the sign in which men had conquered blessed be Science which gave us the victory! She it is that alone can guarantee certitude, and what goes counter to, or tran scends the limits of, her achievements, either of state ment or construction, may well be looked at askance. There is a realm of hard and fast fact, of things that can be known, and that with certainty, in a way to which there is nothing comparable in the whole field of religion. A life of faith all up in the air, so to speak, and un related to everything else that is known, is not a matter for serious consideration in an age of continuously menacing realism. Such have been, and are, the thoughts consciously and subconsciously at work in the minds of many to-day, and with ample reason. Nevertheless the fact remains that investigation of the long history of mankind has disclosed no period in which the most distinctive thing about him has not been his sense of Powers or a Power, expressing itself in the universe, with which he instinctively wished to come into some sort of a satisfactory relationship. There is in man a sense of need and dependence on something without him there is that in his being which goes out to something in the universe which he feels secures his place in it, and with which he desires to be at one. Challenged from the dawn of intelligence by the world order external to him, and impelled by his sense of need, he has committed himself to that world order in one way or another. As the initial acts of self-committal proved to be justified, man with his awakening mind made ever greater demands upon that order, and in turn began to feel its demands upon himself. 3'7man, that is to say, whether he likes it or not, is dis tinctively the religious creature. Man, constituted as he is, cannot help being religious, however different the expressions and form of the sense of the relation that religion represents. Thus the Bible did not make religion: rather did religion make the Bible, and the Koran and the Indian Vedas also, for that matter. The word Religion has had to cover an immense range of experience, from primitive man's tremulous response to lightning and thunder, or the feelings associated with the hesitant yet expectant sowing of his scant seed in the earth, up to conscious fellowship with Jesus Christ. Religion is a capacity and character - a higher awareness and responsiveness - that have developed with man's mental and spiritual progress, of which the growing revelation of God to man has been the converse side. In short, it is the last and highest expression of that elan vital that has characterised the whole history of life from the beginning - that reaching out towards a richer, completer, more harmonious life which was all uncon scious until it be...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evidence of Immortality This essay is an examination from a scientific view point into the probability of the continued existence of' human life after the death of the body. Of course, by scientific is meant the light Of reason applied to the phe nomena of life - not a demonstration by means Of the microscope or balances. Perhaps philosophical would be a better word to use in describing its method, but as all true science is philosophical, and all true philosophy scientific, the writer is not disposed to insist too strongly upon the term used. It is believed that a careful analysis of undisputed phenomena of existence, which have been perhaps overlooked, or which have not been assigned their ptoper importance, will establish the truth of the persist ence of life beyond the grave as certainly as any other fact of existence. It will assuredly place it upon a much firmer basis than that enjoyed by many Of the accepted scientific hypotheses, such as those which attempt to prove the existence and functions of the ether, atoms, matter itself, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Humanity Immortal written by Laurens P. Hickok and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Humanity Immortal: Or, Man Tried, Fallen, and Redeemed Every human life has thus a perpetual ongoing ex perience, and as each is a propagation from an origi nal stock by natural generation, so the primitive life sends down its connections through all, and makes for humanity a universal history. In that which is peculiar to man must human experience and history differ from other Spiritual communities in other spheres; but since the one Father of spirits is Crea tor and Lord of all spirits, so in this one source of all authority and responsibility must all rational be ings, in all worlds, be necessarily implicated in com mon interests, and stand each to each ip reciprocity of rights and obligations. The work now before us is to trace, in general outline, the specific History of Humanity from its beginning to its consummation in the eternal state, with the communings and collisions that may occur with other orders of spiritual intelli gences; taking as our guide the offered light from speculative reason, and from divine revelation, and, so far as the facts of experience may be gathered, from the records of past ages. The light shining from all these sources must give in all readings the same one meaning, since all are reflections from the one pure source of Absolute Truth and Wisdom.

Download or read book Living Christ written by Paul Tyner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living Christ: An Exposition of the Immortality of Man in Soul and Body is a work written by Paul Tyner. Tyner is an Irish-born and American-educated Rosicrucianist and was a member of the Fraternitas Rosae Crucis, rising to be a member of the Council of Three within the secret society. The purpose of this book is to argue for man's immortality, not only in a physical sense but also in a spiritual sense. The author believes that every individual has immortality within their grasp. The book relies heavily on the text of the Bible for the conclusions it draws. See the chapter entitled Scriptural Evidences of Bodily Immortality for example. It should be noted that the teachings of Tyner at times differ wildly from anything presented in The Bible. For example, to obtain physical immortality, the author recommends, "In summer, let our naked bodies reflect and be reflected in the sun, baring it to the open air, by brook side, or sea-shore." This book will definitely appeal to those interested in a form of non-traditional spiritualism. While frequent references are made to The Bible, the teachings in Living Christ are vastly different from that of most Christian religions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Problem of Life and Immortality: An Inquiry Into the Origin, Composition, and Destiny of Man The part containing the proofs and illustrations of immortality was written as a lecture more than twelve years ago. And although no subject of such deep and abiding interest has reached, or even approximated, the stage of final settlement, and though none has been more ably and earnestly discussed during these years than this, I have as yet seen no reason to change my views on any of the points here presented. It was my original purpose to leave the problem of God, or First Cause, as already settled affirmatively. Then I remembered that the sacred books of Jews, Brahmins, Christians, Mohammedans, are no longer of binding authority with the deepest thinkers. And it is bandied about among half-thinking materialists, that the argument from design is exploded, merely because Paley overdrew a little in some of his illustra tions from natural history.
