Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical and Social Aspects of Christianity, the Wisdom of James In August, 1912, it was my privilege to deliver a course of lectures at the Northfield Bible Conference. There were many requests for the publication of the addresses. I shall never forget the bright faces of the hundreds who gathered in beautiful Sage Chapel at 8:30 on those August mornings. In August, 1913, the lectures were repeated at the New York Chautauqua and at the Winona Bible Conference. There were renewed appeals for publication, but it was not possible to put the material into shape because of my work on "A Grammar of the Greek New Testament in the Light of Historical Research." I have expanded the lectures a good deal and have added some introductory discussion about James himself. I have in mind ministers, social workers, students of the Bible, Sunday-School teachers, and all lovers of the word of God and of rightness of life. Technical matters are placed in parentheses or in footnotes so that the reader may go on without these if he cares to do so. There is a freshness in the Greek text not possible in the English, but those who do not know Greek may still read this book with entire ease. I do not claim that these addresses are a detailed commentary on the Epistle of James. They are expository talks, based, I trust, on sober, up-to-date scholarship and applied to modern life. It is the old gospel in the new age that we need and must know how to use. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Wisdom of James the Just Classic Reprint written by Right Rev. W. Boyd Carpenter D. D. and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wisdom of James the Just Wise men have often told us of the snares of desultory reading. The mental discipline which accompanies continuous study is missed by those who wander from book to book. There may be, and there doubtless is, profit in wide and diversified reading, but it is seldom a profit, except to those who have trained the mind by systematic study. The Bible, like every other book, is only read with fullest advantage when it is studied systematically, i.e., book by book. I fear that Bible reading is too often the reading of detached texts, or of favourite and perhaps isolated passages.

Download or read book My Faith Still Works written by Mitchell Smith and published by . This book was released on 2017-04-22 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The society that many of us live in today is unable to provide its citizens with much wisdom. It has been said that "common sense is no longer common," and although the Christian does not expect the unbeliever to follow all the principles of the Bible, it seems as though many people are getting the simplest of choices and issues in life wrong.This is where the great wisdom of the Epistle of James comes to the fore! For those familiar with the Scriptures, you would instantly recognize Proverbs from the Old Testament to be the main source of instruction when it comes to the subjects surrounding wisdom. Consider James to be the 'Proverbs' of the New Testament. It is just as full of wisdom, and he applies it into the most everyday issues of the Christian's life. James is going to speak God's wisdom on themes such as temptation, controlling your speech, the danger of lust, favouritism and the right and wrong types of wisdom. He takes examples and illustrations out of nature and the human body, and drives home his truth with these examples that we can all understand. Over the course of my Christian life, James has proven to be one of my most-read parts of the Bible. His practical thinking and simple delivery of truth resonate with me every time. I know that you will also be encouraged by the intensely practical way that James presents the wisdom of God.

His Letters and Papers from Prison became a prized testimony to Christian faith and courage, read by thousands. Now in Life Together we have Pastor Bonhoeffer's experience of Christian community. This story of a unique fellowship in an underground seminary during the Nazi years reads like one of Paul's letters. It gives practical advice on how life together in Christ can be sustained in families and groups.

Download or read book Callings written by William C. Placher and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2005-07-26 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What am I going to do with my life? is a question that young people commonly face, while many not-so-young people continue to wonder about finding direction and purpose in their lives. Whether such purpose has to do with what job to take, whether to get married, or how to incorporate religious faith into the texture of their lives, Christians down the centuries have believed that God has plans for them. This unprecedented anthology gathers select passages on work and vocation from the greatest writers in Christian history. William Placher has written insightful introductions to accompany the selections — an introduction to each of the four main historical sections and a brief introduction to each reading. While the vocational questions faced by Christians have changed through the centuries, this book demonstrates how the distilled wisdom of these saints, preachers, theologians, and teachers remains relevant to Christians today. This rich resource is to be followed by a companion volume, edited by Mark R. Schwehn and Dorothy C. Bass, featuring texts drawn mainly from fiction, memoir, poetry, and other forms of literature. A study guide is available from Programs for the Theological Exploration of Vocation (PTEV) on their website.
