This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Plain Thoughts on Faith and Life From that hour of revelation before the gates of Damascus to the hour of his martyrdom at Rome, Paul presents an example of mar velons courage, faith, and hope. At times, however, as he views the vastness of the work and the fewness of'the workers the profound sadness of his soul vents itself in such expres sions as our text: All men - all men are seek ing their own. His words suggest for our serious meditation the universal weakness of humanity, the sin of inordinate self-seeking. Taking life at its lowest valuation - that of the individual happiness - even then the self centere'd life is a failure. With vast erudition John Stuart Mill argued for happiness as the chief end of life. Yet he was forced to confess that if one should pursue his own happiness as his supreme object, he must fail to attain it.

Download or read book A Plain Argument for God Classic Reprint written by George Stuart Fullerton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Plain Argument for God I have long been of the opinion that the argument for God, as it is usually pre sented, gives but little satisfaction to the vast mass of thoughtful men and women who approach the subject with an earnest desire to satisfy not only the demands of the intellect but also of the heart. The language used is so far removed from that of common life as to be not readily intelli gible. Some of the arguments put forward seem to the plain man little better than metaphysical quibbles, and if he assents to them it is rather because he already agrees with their conclusion than because he sees their force. The one argument which does appeal to him as simple and natural is pre sented in such a way as to lead him to a God, not present and living, but of the past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sure and Living Faith Life and God's. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. Behold, thou hast made my days as handbreadths; and mine age is as nothing before thee. Behold, he putteth no trust in his servants; and his angels he chargeth with folly; how much more them that dwell in houses of clay, whose foundation is in the dust, which are crushed before the moth Doubtless the feeling of kinship with God is in the Old Testament, but it is in the background; the feeling of the contrast between man and God is in the foreground.

Download or read book Christian Unity in Effort Classic Reprint written by Frank J. Firth and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Unity in Effort This book records some personal thoughts and beliefs, resulting from such reading and listening to the views of others as is practically possible in and following the well-occupied hours of an active business life. It includes quotations from the Bible, and from other books that have been interesting and helpful. The repetitions that appear here and there throughout the book should aid in making its purpose clearer. It represents a conviction that every man and woman should acquire by individual effort such simple religious knowledge and personal faith as is essential to a well-rounded life here and to a right preparation for what may be beyond; and that intelligent individual observation and thought will make plain the need for organized "Christian unity in effort." In this age of religious unrest and craving for better things no one should hold in selfish privacy any thought or experience that, if made public, might in any way be helpful to another.

Download or read book God s Laws of Healing for Spirit Soul and Body written by Anon Anon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God's Laws of Healing for Spirit, Soul and Body is a publication dedicated to the belief and faith in Christianity with the main purpose of inspiring similar passions in others. Through faith, the book argues, all healing can begin as belief in God allows for you to receive the healing of God. This book aims to reveal "the natural and spiritual laws by which all manner of disease of body, soul and spirit are healed through faith in the word of God." The book contains several chapters that explore Christianity and faith, and how these concepts can be utilized to promote personal health and to overcome disease. The book also tackles specific questions and offers answers to medical concerns such as "cigarette habits," "scurvy," and "the salt habit." In addition, the text offers a series of lectures (to be read or shared) and a variety of lessons to explore that pertain to the subject, as well as a detailed exploration of some more controversial topics such as "the devil's miracles" and proof of more than one hundred cases of disease ostensibly healed via the power of God. Whether you're a believer of Christianity or not, God's Laws of Healing for Spirit, Soul and Body is an interesting or entertaining read. This book may be fascinating for individuals intrigued by early Christian thoughts and practices, as this book provides wonderful insight into the power of faith. This book can also be for readers who wonder about early medical practices, as this book offers an entertaining look at medical beliefs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Country Faith Well, there are so many things in the dear, sun colored earth that want to be spoken to! Yet, we must hurry along, or we shall never get to the end of our walk. So, as simple illustrations of the country faith, I want you to share with me some Of the things it was my privilege to see. The more I think of it, said Ruskin, I find this conclusion more impressed upon me - that the greatest thing a human soul ever does in this world is to see something, and tell what it saw in a plain way. If we honestly see and speak to the earth, it will luminously and inspiringly teach us. The first lesson from the teaching earth was a set of silent morning glory chimes. There they hung, the three Of them, in their rich blue tower Of color. Yet, on looking more closely, I found that two of the three bell-shaped flowers were already fading. Unequal to the growing heat of the sun, they were all doomed to a transient existence. For it is just the nature Of this flower to curl Up and wither away in the face of the sun. Looking at these flowers, faded and fading, somehow I could not keep back that wail Of the Hebrew prophet, O Israel, he cried, thy goodness is like the morning dew, that passeth early away. Now, it is perfectly natural for the flower to fade and for the dewdrop to vanish; but how unnatural that our goodness, too, should be so fickle and ephemeral! We say it is easy and natural to be bad, so hard and difficult to be good. But is the saying altogether true? A thousand times, no! It is false to the core.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spirit and Life: Thoughts for to-Day The most important of experiences is that which leads to a rational and credible idea of God. This cannot be taught in the schools. N 0 man or body of men have authority to delineate it; the largest and noblest conception Of the Deity ever possessed, even though imparted by revelation, has been at the best but a broken light. And yet, on clear views of God hang the glory and usefulness Of human life. If there is no God, there is no hope, life is a dream, and he is happiest who knows no waking. If God exists but has no care for men, or is interested only in the universe and not in individuals, then for us it were as well if there were no God.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christ and the Future Life But I may be answered that at such times Faith is impossible, and that it is just because the Faith has gone that the trouble has come. It is the loss of Faith that constitutes the difficulty. You may say that there is nothing to be done but wait perhaps Faith will return. Mean time you must be content to be faithful to plain duty, and must do as well as you can without the inspiration, the guidance, the strength that come from invisible and eternal things.
