Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Passages From the Life and Writings of George Fox William Penn, in his Preface to George Fox's journal, says of him: He was a man that God endued with a clear and wonderful depth, a discerner of others' spirits, and very much a master of his own; and though the side of his understanding which lay next to the world, and especially the expression of it, might sound uncouth and unlashionable to nice ears, his matter was nevertheless very profound, and would not only bear to be often considered, but the more it was so the more weighty and instructing it appeared. And as abruptly and brokenly as sometimes his sentences would fall from him about Divine things, it is well known they were often as texts to many fairer declarations.

Book excerpt: The Journal of George Fox is one of the great religious autobiographies, and has its place with the "Confessions" of St. Augustine, Saint Teresa's "Life," Bunyan's "Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners," the "Life of Madam Guyon, Written by Herself," and John Wesley's "Journal." The great interest which has developed in recent years in the Psychology of Religion, and in the study of mysticism, has most naturally given new interest and prominence to all autobiographical writings which lay bare the inward states and processes of the seeking, or the triumphant soul. Professor William James has stated a well-known fact when he says that religion must be studied in those individuals in whom it is manifested to an extra-normal degree. In other words, we must go to those individuals who have a genius for religion—for whom religion has constituted well nigh the whole of life. George Fox is eminently a character of this sort, as nearly every recent student of personal religion has recognized.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from George Fox Having been asked by my friend, the Editor of this series, to write the life of George Fox, I have completed the work to the best of my ability, though I am aware of the disadvantage under which I labour in not having for some years made that period a subject of special study. The reader will no doubt perceive that I am myself a member of the Society of Friends, to which my ancestors have belonged since its first foundation by George Fox; but I trust that this fact has not caused me to swerve from that absolute fidelity of portraiture which ought to be the aim of every biographer. There are some lines in the portrait which, out of love to Fox's memory, I would gladly have omitted; but loyalty to the Truth, which has ever been the watch word of the Society of Friends, forbade me to do so. Only I may repeat a remark which has been often made, that his faults (especially his polemic bitterness) were, for the most part, faults characteristic of his age, while his nobler qualities, his courage, his conscientious ness, and his intense love of truth, were emphatically his own.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of George Fox The Great Leaders' Lives aims to meet the needs of moral and religious secondary education. Adolescence is pre-eminently the period of Ideal ism. The na'1've obedience to authority character istic of childhood is to a large extent supplanted at this time by self-initiative;-by self-determina tion in accordance With ideals adopted or framed by the individual himself. Furthermore, the ideals of this period are concrete rather than abstract. They are embodied in individual lives, and, gen erally, in lives of action. Hence biographies of great leaders appeal strongly to the adolescent. They furnish examples and stimulus for conduct along the higher lines. The Great Leaders' Lives Will include a large number of volumes de voted to the study of some of the greatest moral and Spiritual leaders of the race. Although de signed primarily for use in the class-room, they Will serve admirably the purposes of a general course of reading in biography for youth.

Download or read book A Popular Life of George Fox written by Josiah Marsh and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Popular Life of George Fox: The First of the Quakers Sir James Mackintosh, speaking of "George Fox's Journal," says, "it is one of the most extraordinary and instructive narratives in the world, - which no reader of competent judgment can peruse without revering the virtue of the writer." The compiler's object in the present Memoir, has been to condense the most important features and incidents of the life of so eminently pious a character as George Fox, in order to produce a small volume sufficiently interesting for the general reader, and more especially for those unacquainted with the principles and history of the Quakers. Christianity must possess some universally fundamental principle, some common ground upon which all communities of Christians meet, however the practices of their separate churches may differ; and as the investigation of this principle forms the most important subject of their research, all are bound, in prosecuting this inquiry, to divest themselves of prejudice, so far, as to pursue it for the sake of Truth itself. Professor Playfair says, "It is too much forgotten by physiologists, that their duty is really not to refute the experiments of others, nor to show that they are erroneous, but to discover truth, and that alone.
