Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Saint Bernard on Consideration It was a time, too, of political movement.' Arnold of Brescia, a disciple of Abelard, but more famous for his political heresy, not only preached reform in the Church, but threw Rome into convulsions by proclaiming (a.d. 1143) a Republic. He presumed to quote the declaration of Christ, 'that His kingdom is not of this world; he boldly maintained that the sword and the sceptre were intrusted to the civil magistrate; that temporal honours and possessions were law fully vested in secular persons; that the abbots, the bishops, and the Pope himself must renounce either their state or their salvation; and that after the loss of their revenues, the voluntary tithes and oblations of the faithful would suffice, not indeed for luxury and avarice, but for a frugal life in the exercise of spiritual labours.' 3 The terror of successive popes, he was hanged, burnt, and his ashes cast into the Tiber (a.d. 1155) only two years after Bernard's death. The saint's advice to the Pope more than once recalls the teaching, tone, and temper of Arnold. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was originally written as an instruction to Pope Eugene III, who had once be Saint Bernard's subject. It is an excellent book on the spiritual life, especially for superiors. The advice is timeless and very useful for all Catholics. Saint Bernard asks: “What then is a hard heart? It is a heart which is not torn by remorse, nor softened by affection, nor moved by entreaties; which does not yield to threats, but is hardened by scourges. It is ungrateful for kindnesses, faithless in counsel, cruel in judgment, shameless in disgrace, without sense of fear in the midst of danger, inhuman in things human, heedless in things divine; it forgets the past, neglects the present, does not look on to the future. It is a heart emptied of all the past except wrongs it has suffered, which lets slip all the present, which has no forecast of the future, no preparation to meet it, unless perchance it be with a view to gratifying its malice. And, that I may briefly sum up the mischief of this dreadful plague, it is a heart which neither fears God nor respects man.” He then gives us sage advice how to avoid this terrible malady of hard-heartedness.St. Alphonsus writes: “a single bad book will be sufficient to cause the destruction of a monastery.” Pope Pius XII wrote in 1947 at the beatification of Blessed Maria Goretti: “There rises to Our lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to the world because of scandals!' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who consciously and deliberately spread corruption-in novels, newspapers, magazines, theaters, films, in a world of immodesty!” We at St. Pius X Press are calling for a crusade of good books. We want to restore 1,000 old Catholic books to the market. We ask for your assistance and prayers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Times of Saint Bernard: Abbot of Clairvaux, A. D. 1091-1153 Saint Bernard was born A.D. 1091, and died A.D. 1153. His life thus almost coincides with the central portion of the Middle Ages. He witnessed also what may be regarded as especially mediaeval events. He saw the First and the Second Crusades; he saw the rising liberties of the communes; the beginnings of scholasticism under Abelard were contemporary with him. A large church reformation, and the noblest period of-growth and influence that monasticism was destined to know, were social facts with which he was not only coeval, but on which he has left the deepest marks of his action and genius. Saint Bernard was a Burgundian. Not far from st. Bernards Dijon, in full view of the range of the Cote d'Or hills, pa was a feudal castle, situate on a small eminence which went by the name of Fontaines.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life and Times of St. Bernard The barbarians, who, issuing from their fastnesses from time to time, laid waste the fair lands of the south, and divided between them the Roman Empire, were altogether strangers to the arts and sciences, and knew no other occu patiou but the chase or war. The right of the strong to Oppress the weak was the only law which they obeyed; conquest was their great and only object of glory. They professed a sovereign contempt for the arts of civilized life, and were not capable of estimating the blessings which a settled polity is calculated to confer. Though the Christian religion, which they embraced, softened by degrees the fero city of their disposition and the wildness of their habits, it was not until after many centuries that its results were seen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Saint Bernard on the Love of God You wish me to explain for what reason and in what measure we should love God. I should say that God Himself is the motive of our love to Him, and that the measure of due love is to be without measure. Is this clear enough? Perhaps it may be for a person of intelligence, but I desire to answer for both the learned and unlearned; and, though I may have said enough for the former, I must remember others also. For them I will unfold my meaning, and perhaps add somewhat to it. Two things there are that move us to love God for Himself: nothing is more reasonable; nothing is more profitable. The question, What binds us to love God? may either mean - What is His title to our love? or, How will it profit us to love God? To both these forms of the question there is but one answer: The motive for loving God, is God. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
