Book The Reality of Jesus  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Reality of Jesus Classic Reprint written by J. H. Chambers Macaulay and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-21 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reality of Jesus The Reality of Jesus is the energy of individual character and the vital power of social reconstruction. Theories as to collective betterment are futile, if the personal Will to righteousness is wanting. Spiritual forces in the personal soul are the dynamic of progress. The Religion of Jesus is the reality of life. If a sense of unreality haunts men with regard to religion, Jesus is misunderstood or misrepresented. There is nothing remote, occult or unreal about Him. He is vital. He strips religion of everything artificial and reveals life. He is at once simpler and deeper than all expositions concerning Him.

Download or read book Religion as Life Classic Reprint written by Henry Churchill King and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religion as Life IF one is to do justice to the breadth of human nature, he may not forget that there are always two questions to be asked concerning any of the phenomena of the world and of life: How did it come to be? What does it mean? The question of process, of mechanical explanation, and the question of meaning, of ideal interpreta tion. And men cannot help asking the second question as well as the first. As Watts says, endeavoring to put into words the constant thought back of all his own work as an artist: As long as humanity is humanity, man will yearn to ascend the heights that human footsteps may not tread, and will long to lift the veil that shrouds the enigma of being; and he will most prize the echo of this longing in even the incoherent expression of literature.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Puritanism in Power: An Argument in Three Books Religion, which to the ignorant means captivity, and which priests have used to scare men into tendering gifts and homage, is in reality the gladdest thing in life - gladder than the song of birds and freer than their flight. Religion ever blows the trump of Jubilee; and Faith, Hope and Charity in choral unity start the soul upon a song of which it never tires, though longing for its practice to be perfected.

Book Religion and Life  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Religion and Life Classic Reprint written by Thomas Cuming Hall and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Religion and Life Even in institutions that claim to be Christian the fundamental things of a religious intelligence are all too often but lightly dealt with. It is often assumed that young minds still start with the pre suppositions of the past, whereas, in fact, the teachings of certain classrooms in that same institution may have worked havoc with all those presuppositions. It is to thoughtful men and women who are not in any sense specialists on the fields here touched upon that these chapters are written, and the hope is that they may give a point of View from which a fruitful study of religion is possible. Great conden sation has been aimed at, and many longer expositions have been sacrificed to keep the book within certain limits both of compass and of price. May the reading of these pages strengthen intelligent faith and lead to a Vital union with God's purpose as re vealed in the person and work of Christ J csus our Lord.

Iv. While appeals to carry out the duty of foreign missions are equally conspicuous by their absence. On the other hand, the Christian life, its provisions and possibilities, its secrets and methods, its duties and responsibilities, will be found emphasized almost everywhere.

Book Doctrine and Doubt  Or Christ the Centre of Christianity  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Doctrine and Doubt Or Christ the Centre of Christianity Classic Reprint written by Samuel Macnaughton and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Doctrine and Doubt, or Christ the Centre of Christianity These Studies, or Sermon-Lectures, do not aim at anything profound or subtle in argument, but are intended for thoughtful men who are troubled with honest doubt and perplexed by Christian doctrines "hard to be understood." The work does not profess to be complete as a theological treatise, or exhaustive in the treatment of the different subjects; but rather to indicate lines of argument and methods of investigation. It is a great matter to have thoughtful seekers after truth set upon the right track. The author does not claim to have discovered a panacea for all intellectual troubles, but wishes simply to give some pictures and representations of the path which he himself has travelled, and in which he found clearer light and had all intellectual difficulties removed. Several topics of considerable interest are intentionally treated with great brevity, and often incidentally, but still, it is hoped, with some degree of clearness and simplicity.

Book An Outline of Christian Theology  Classic Reprint

Download or read book An Outline of Christian Theology Classic Reprint written by William Newton Clarke and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of Christian Theology Religion. - Theology is preceded by religion, as botany by the life of plants. Religion is the reality of which theology is the study. Religion is the life of man in his superhuman relations; that is, in his relation to the Power that produced him, the Authority that is over him, and the unseen Being with whom he is capable Of communion. This unseen Being, this Authority, and this Power are one, in the good God and Father whom it is eternal life to know; but this is a last religious truth for man, rather than a first, and until this comes religion is incomplete, one-sided, and more or less misleading. But religion is always the life and experience of man as a being who is dependent upon power, answer able to authority, and adapted to commune with unseen, spiritual reality.

Book The Religious Experience of Saint Paul  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Religious Experience of Saint Paul Classic Reprint written by Percy Gardner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-04 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religious Experience of Saint Paul My experiment, however imperfect its success, certainly produced in me a growing sense of the greatness of Paul and the reality of his inspiration. His powerful intellect is not so remarkable for its constructive force as for its marvellous good sense and practical efficiency. He has an intense feeling, both above and on the threshold of consciousness, for what is necessary for the future of the Christian society. His whole soul is filled and possessed by a profound sense that he is but the agent and interpreter of a power within and above him. This power works primarily in his own person, and in all those who receive inspiration from him, in a love of love, of sweetness, gentleness, and righteousness, a love which makes rules unnecessary, and aspiration to a higher life the very breath of the spirit. But from time to time in the letters there come human touches, touches pathetically human, which remove the writer by a whole abyss from the preacher who stands above his audience, or the prophet who has no feeling for anything except his message.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Judaism and Christianity as condensed illustrations of how people across time struggle with the materiality of life and death. Speaking across many fields, including classics, history, anthropology, literary, gender, and queer studies, the book journeys through the ancient Mediterranean world by way of the myriad physical artifacts that punctuate the transnational history of early Christianity. By bringing a psychoanalytically inflected approach to bear upon her materialist studies of religious history, Kotrosits makes a contribution not only to our understanding of Judaism and early Christianity, but also our sense of how different disciplines construe historical knowledge, and how we as people and thinkers understand our own relation to our material and affective past"--
