Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures to Professing Christians I said that these two extremes, that which makes relig ion to consist altogether m Outward works and that which makes it consist altogether in faith, are equally false and equally fatal. Those who make religion consist altogethei' in good works, overlook the fact that works themselves are not acceptable to God unless they proceed from faith. For without faith it is impossible to please him. And those who make, religion consist altogether in faith, overlook the fact that true faith always works by love, and invariably produces the works of love.

Download or read book The Missouri Christian Lectures written by Missouri Christian Lectureship and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Missouri Christian Lectures: Selected From the Courses of 1886, 1887, and 1888 The Executive Committee of the Missouri Christian Lectureship takes pleasure in presenting to the public another volume, containing, it is believed, an unusually valuable and timely collection of addresses. Some of them were thought out on Missouri soil, some of them were not; but all of them were delivered under the auspices of the Lectureship, and during its annual meetings. The several authors desire to be known simply as Disciples of Christ, or Christians. Acknowledging no other Master than Christ, and having no other creed or test of fellowship than faith in Christ and obedience to Him, they felt constrained during the preparation of these lectures to exercise their full measure of Christian liberty, and that too in the full expectation and desire that their reviewers should exercise the same privilege. The Committee regrets its inability to publish all the scholarly reviews and thoughtful discussions that followed their delivery. Most of them being oral, and called forth by the inspiration of the hour, could not, of course, be reproduced.

Download or read book Lectures to Professing Christians written by Charles Finney and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-07-08 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THERE are two extremes in religion, equally false and equally fatal. And there are two classes of hypocrites that occupy these two extremes. The first class make religion consist altogether in the belief of certain abstract doctrines, or what they call faith, and lay little or no stress on good works. The other class make religion to consist altogether in good works, (I mean dead works,) and lay little or no stress on faith in Jesus Christ, but hope for salvation by their own deeds. The Jews belonged generally to the last mentioned class. Their religious teachers taught them that they would be saved by obedience to the ceremonial law. And therefore, when Paul began to preach, he seems to have attacked more especially this error of the Jews. He was determined to carry the main question, that men are justified by faith in Jesus Christ, in opposition to the doctrine of the Scribes and Pharisees, that salvation is by obedience to law. And he pressed this point so earnestly, in his preaching and in his epistles, that he carried it, and settled the faith of the church in the great doctrine of justification by faith. And then certain individuals in the church laid hold of this doctrine and carried it to the opposite extreme, and maintained that men are saved by faith altogether, irrespective of works of any kind. They overlooked the plain principle, that genuine faith always results in good works, and is itself a good work. -Charles G. Finney GET MORE BOOKS AT REVIVALPRESS.NET

On the Russell Foundation, Easter Week, 1922 Christ, who inspires and enables men to live and labor for his Kingdom. In so comprehensive a survey of Pagan and Chris tian ways of salvation, few men would attempt to base all their conclusions on original sources. I, at least, profess to have made use, in a number of the chapters, of the most recent and trustworthy authorities. In the footnotes I have mentioned the names of some of the authors whose books and articles I have consulted. I desire especially to call the attention of the reader to Professor Kilpatrick's articles in Hastings' Encyclo pedia of Religion and Ethics, on Salvation (chris tian and on Soteriology, respectively, these are'of unusual excellence and were most helpful to me in the preparation of Chapter III.

Download or read book Christian Education in America written by John Joseph Keane and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Education in America: A Lecture Brethren: Your hearts are filled with joy to-day because years of faithful and generous labor have at last been crowned by the dedication of this beautiful church to the service of Almighty God. But in your joy I am sure you do not lose sight of the fact that during those years of endeavor and of hope our dear Lord and His adoring flock found welcome and fitting shelter in the hall of the parish school-house. Your prudent and zealous pastor, knowing well that "the child is father of the man," and that the way to make a parish of good Christians is to see to the Christian training of the children, erected the school-house before laying a stone of the church; he invited Our Lord and the people of the parish to be for awhile the guests of the children; and it is only after having for years blessed with His Real Presence that home of Christian education that our Divine Saviour has come to occupy this His beautiful dwelling place. Friends, is not this an object-lesson of the relation between religion and education? It is putting in concrete and symbolic form the lesson so frequently inculcated by the word of God, that Our Lord is "the Light of the World," that He is "the true Light which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world," that "God is Light and there is no darkness in Him," that Christians must be "children of the light." It is the will of God that neither ignorance nor stupidity nor error shall rule His people, but the knowledge of the truth, which, He says, is to "make us free," breaking the fetters of ignorance, dispelling the illusions of error, developing and setting free all the powers which our Creator has bestowed on the human intelligence for His creatures' good.

The Levering Lectures Before the Johns Hopkins University, 1899 The sower went forth to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden under foot, and the birds of the heaven devoured it. And other fell on the rock; and as soon as it grew, it withered away, because it had no moisture. And other fell amidst the thorns; and the thorns grew with it, and choked it. And other fell into the good ground, and grew, and brought forth fruit a hundredfold. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed upon the earth; and should sleep and rise night and day, and the seed should spring up and grow, he knoweth not how. The earth beareth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, theft the full corn in the ear. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

He humbly trusts that the Glorious Jesus whom he worships as his Lord and his God, -his Great God and Saviour, - will be still pleased to use this work for the manifestation of his glory, the bringing of the vessels of his mercy to an acknowledgment and obedience of the truth, and the guarding of his Church against the vital and dangerous errors which these days have again brought forth, all of which, the author believes, originate in an ignorance, or in confused views, of the relations of the Law and the Gospel to each other and to man. He has also in prepa ration, should his life be spared for their publication, two other works in connection with this; the one under the title of Christ is all, displaying these precious truths in the actual experience of mam - and the other under the title of The good Confession, exhibiting the outward manifestation of their influence and Operation in the Chris tian life. He humbly hopes, and for this end, begs the prayers of Christian friends, that the Glorious King of Zion will graciously accept his efforts in these books to proclaim the truth, to the promotion of his own glory, and the edifying of his Church. And committing his labours to Him, he would adore and glorify God, the Father, the Son, and the Holv Ghost, one Almighty, Gracious God, with thanksgivings and praise, for evermore. Amen.
