Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Christian Commonwealth I have termed this an adaptation, for the sole reason that the greater portion of the notes with which the original is furnished have been omitted. Consisting, as they do, mainly of references to German writers, they are of more interest to German than English readers. Such portions of the notes as I have deemed indispensable to the meaning, I have incorporated into the main text. The subject of the work is one which, in some shape or another, is at the present time occupying the minds of all those who take an interest in. Our national prosperity; and my desire is that, by giving easier access to the ideas of so deep a thinker, I may be the means of enabling some one, who has the power as well as the will, to apply those ideas to England.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian Commonwealth In the manifold phases of society, whether in its rudest stages and in its progress, or as it may now be seen in different parts of the world, there may be recognised, among minor variations and resemblances, five distinctive features - the Hunting State, the Pastoral, Agricultural, Commercial, and Manufacturing. When it was perceived that nations the most advanced in civilisation were not the most moral; that their vices, if less gross, were more numerous; that they had corrupted or exterminated the Aborigines of newly-discovered countries - it is not surprising that some error should have been suspected to exist in the very foundations of society, nor is it unworthy of remark, that those authors who, from time to time, have speculated upon better systems of polity, were the most distinguished in the age in which they lived, for transcendent talent and profound wisdom.

Download or read book The Inner Life of the Religious Societies of the Commonwealth written by Robert Barclay and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-18 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Inner Life of the Religious Societies of the Commonwealth: Considered Principally With Reference to the Influence of Church Organization on the Spread of Christianity The stand-point from which the subject has been treated, differs essentially from that of many other writers. The reader will, however, agree, that it is desirable to contemplate the religious history of our country from all the points of view which may tend to elucidate it. Some aspects of the history of the period may have their importance, and yet have escaped the notice they deserve, while others may be obscured by the mist of a prejudice which is merely the result of imperfect information. Whatever treatment the history of the Christian Reli gion may receive from historians, and whatever may be the fate of Religious Societies, we may be sure (to use the words of one who suffered martyrdom* for his Opinions respecting the constitution of a visible Church), that the smallest portion of Divine truth is immortal; it may perhaps long be bound, scourged, crowned, cruci fied, and be laid for a season in the grave, yet the third day it shall rise again victorious, and rule and triumph for ever.

W. F. Quillian: To the Board of Trustees of Emory College. Desiring to promote the cause of Christian education and to advance the theological literature of Methodism, and believing that I can most effectively do this by laying the foundation of a lectureship at the college of my Church, located at Oxford, Ga., I give to Emory College fifty shares of $10 each, of the capital stock of the "Country Bank Stock Security Company" (estimated to be worth $550, the amount I paid for same), to be held or sold and reinvested by the Board of Trustees, for the purpose of founding a lectureship on the following conditions and plan: 1. This sum, together with any other amounts which may be given by myself or others for this purpose, shall be safely invested, and the interest added to the principal until the sum of $3,000 shall have been reached. But one course of the lectures may be provided for at an earlier date by special donation, provided no part of the principal of this fund shall be thus used. 2. Thereafter the interest, together with any appropriations made to this fund from other sources, shall be used for the maintenance of a lectureship in Emory College.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Christian Commonwealth The other works written by the same author are too well known to require any apology from me for bringing this, one of his latest works, under public notice. I could only wish that he had found some one more capable than myself of rendering his clear, terse, and classic style of writing. However, I hope that my language will convey with accuracy the meaning of the author. I have termed this an adaptation, for the sole reason that the greater portion of the notes with which the original is furnished have been omitted.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian According to Paul Ye were at that time separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world - Eph 2. 12. Times have changed, but have the hearts of men changed? How truly do the outstanding words and phrases of this verse, in which Paul vividly described to the Ephesians their state before they accepted Christ, picture the condition of those today who do not know Christ? What does it mean that they are apart from the company of those who live in Christ's light? What is the result of the fact that their manner of life has set them in opposition to the friends of Christ? Is it a loss that they are strangers to his ways, his thoughts, his promises? Have they hope of any real good? What is the effect of being without God? How much real satisfaction can there be in the life that does not know him? What book in the Bible has most to say about hope? Who inspires hope? How important a place does Paul give to hope? (consult a concordance.)

The church has gazed upon her new-born children with delight, and inquired, As for these, whence did they come? They are recruits from the world, they are deserters from the army of the prince of the powers of darkness, they have sworn allegiance to another Sovereign, one Jesus. They have identified themselves with his cause, they are the subjects of his kingdom, they have become strangers upon the earth, that they may be citizens in heaven, and they seek that better country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from College and Commonwealth: And Other Educational, Papers and Addresses Coming in this second year of world war, to a college founded largely by the efforts of a great American Secretary of War, who wrote into its original charter specific mention of military tactics as a subject of instruction; to a college whose seal bears the epaulet of a great soldier of freedom (with a somewhat contradictory legend - veritas liberabit); to a college whose name is that of a great Frenchman, beloved of Washington and remembered by the American people as General Lafayette rather than as the marquis of high lineage, as statesman or as reformer; to a college situated in this narrow valley which resounds day and night with the straining, agonizing efforts of locomotives, to set forward on their way of destruction tons of shells and projectiles, it might be expected that I should speak of education for war, or appraise the place of the college in a civilization where the steel shell seems final arbiter and the scholar's position no whit different from that of Archimedes in Syracuse twenty-two centuries ago, whose scholar's boast, "Give me where I may stand and I will move the world," was quickly brought to naught by the ignorant soldier of Marcellus.
