Book excerpt: Excerpt from Meanings and Methods of the Spiritual Life There are, one may say, the two ways Of looking at the moral need and the moral problem Of human nature - the taskwork way, so to call it, and the casting-out way. And Of the highest importance must it be for each one Of us to settle once for all the question for his own heart - Is it enough for me to restrain myself, to keep down and to keep in order whatever is low and base in me, or must I prepare myself to go through a spiritual change which shall utterly expel the Old and bring in what is utterly new, and make a man or woman of me in very deed and truth spiritually new-born?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Meaning of Personal Life This book is the result of studies of the meanings of nature and life, which the author has pursued since the publication in 1902 of his Lowell Lectures, Through Science to Faith. Since then the author has from time to time taken up anew the conclusions to which he had been led in that volume, and it has been his aim to review the reasonings of that earlier book as though it were the work of another. From more recent scientific researches and working-theories he has sought to know better what is the real meaning of the final and supreme fact in nature of the personal life. This is no easy task; for all ways of investigation lead up toward this ultimate problem, yet no science by itself alone can tell the answer to the old question, What is your life? The reasonable answer, which religious faith seeks, is ultimately to be found at the point where all the ways of knowledge meet. Though such inquiries must traverse many fields of the specialists and among confusing side-paths, nevertheless, the method of such pursuit of truth may be simple and straightforward. Many summer wanderings through the solitudes of the woods of northern Maine may have unconsciously taught me the method which I have pursued through the following pages. As described more fully in the opening chapter, it is to look at first all around for any slightest indications of direction; and then, keeping preconceived ideas out of mind, to follow the trail from sign to sign.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Code of the Spirit, an Interpretation of the Decalogue The laws of spiritual living are, tradition ally, the Ten Commandments. Those almost prehistoric words have flourished long not so much because of an Obvious as because of a hidden meaning. That they purport and al ways have purported to be the laws Of the soul's health is, also, a reason for their survi val. And the fact Of their survival shows how practical is men's perception that the life Of their spirit, like the life Of any thing, can thrive only under the sway of certain ascer tainable laws.

Download or read book Spiritual Energies in Daily Life Classic Reprint written by Rufus M. Jones and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rufus Matthew Jones Litt was an American Writer, philosopher, college professor, and editor. In addition, he is widely considered to be one of the most influential Quakers of the twentieth century. As a part of the Quaker community he acted as a historian and a philosopher as well as a theologian. His book entitled Spiritual Energies in Daily Life discusses Litt's theological thoughts and beliefs about religion in a poignant and well-developed fashion. Litt's experiences as a Quaker helped shape and mold his feelings about religion, and his spiritual faith runs deep, but he makes a point to begin his book with a discussion on the near impossible task of defining that which he feels so passionately about: "Religion is an experience which no definition exhausts...." In the text, Litt also explores the means by which anthropology defines religion versus the way in which psychology defines religion. For Litt, even the educated theologian's attempt to define religion often falls short. Overall, he argues, the definition of religion should revolve around the personal experience of religion and personal faith, more so than how any profession or field might choose to define it. He goes on to explain that although it is hard for any one group to establish a definition, it is possible to see the power and impact of religion in all walks of life and in all professions. The book, Spiritual Energies in Daily Life is a wonderful book that explores religion via personal experiences and beliefs. For those readers intrigued by the life of Rufus Matthew Jones Litt, this book gives an interesting glimpse into his faith and his experiences. For those interested in theology and religious discussion, this book offers a wellspring of information on those topics. Litt's views on faith are illuminating whether the reader is interested in faith, working towards reviving their own faith, or simply religion in day to day life.

Download or read book Modern Interpretations of the Gospel Life Classic Reprint written by A. A. Berle and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-13 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Interpretations of the Gospel Life The New Testament is essentially a modern book. En grafted into the life and permeating the thought of the centuries as is the power of its Central Figure, the one thing that impresses the student more than all else, as he endeavors to catch the spirit of New Testament teaching, is its thor oughly modern tone. The setting is local and Oriental, but the principles and their application are universal and human. The discourses here gathered together are an attempt to select from a ministry extending over a period of ten years, most of it in a single pulpit, the ruling ideas and efforts of that ministry to present a spherical view of the application of the Christian gospel to the whole of modern life, as we live it in America. Carrying out this purpose, I have made several excursions into the region of apostolic psychology; then again, I have tried to apply the teachings of Christ to the social and political life of our time, an experiment always fruitful of danger and misunderstanding, but none the less necessary for that. I have further outlined the relations of Christianity to our educational ideas and method, especially the place of the Bible in university instruction, following this with a literary criticism or two, in which I have made some observations on the literary and dramatic portraiture of gospel ideas. Then, too, I have added a number of dis courses on the spiritual life itself, as distinguished from the various modes of it which I have been describing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Foundations of the Spiritual Life: Drawn From the Book of the Imitation of Jesus Christ Sinfulness and His Holiness, our own boundless misery and His boundless Mercy, is the condition for prayer, the preparation for Sacraments, the ground of penitence, the element of faith, hope, and love. Of course, this must not be understood negatively, (as it too often is, ) to the exclusion or disparagement of any truth not distinctly expressed in it, (this were at once heretical, ) but as entering into all; not as a distinct confession of faith, but as the outline of it, and the life of all our practice.

Download or read book The Philosophy of Prayer Classic Reprint written by Carl K. Mahoney and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of Prayer This class of writings, with few excep tions, is singularly lacking in scientific method. The approach to its themes is not the intellectual approach. It is more the poetic method Of drifting into things by way of meditation. It may be contended that the cold-blooded scrutiny of scientific method or the apparently colorless treat ment Of philosophical reasoning is out of place in a consideration of the subject Of prayer. Prayer is a matter of the heart. It lies in the realm Of feeling, Of mysticism, of intuition. But just so long as such an atti tude is taken just so long must the general thought of prayer remain vague and con fused. What is the reason for this assump tion? May not prayer submit to analysis and still retain its mysticism, its emotional content, its intuitional aspect, if these can be shown to be in accord with reality? Our devotional attitude will lose nothing in fervency or In smcerity by clarifying the meaning of prayer. Anything that can throw light on matters of spiritual life is of service to religion. Anything that will help us to a better understanding of what we are doing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
