Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sermons of Sunrise The final scene represents the triumph of the Lamb, the victory of that pure love which is in the midst of the throne and at the heart of God. But this triumph is really an eternal defeat; for it does not abolish sin and misery, nor cleanse the universe of evil, it thrusts them out of sight into a realm of darkness. It confirms the enemies of Christ in unpardoned and unpardonable sin. It shuts them up in a prison-house of torment or casts them into a lake of fire. Against all the wicked - the false and the foul and the unbelieving - the wrath of the Lamb burns with eternal vengeance. Thus the Creator of the world sweeps the old order into the bottomless pit, like so much rubbish, and makes all things new. The cursed old Babylon perishes with the cursed old Jerusalem, where the Lord was crucified; and a holy city - the New Jerusalem - comes down from heaven to the purified earth, to be the home of the saints, and to shine in splendor as a matchless manifestation of the glory of God. All this passes like a panorama in a swift succession of Visions, - a series of revelations given one Sunday to the writer in a trance, by the glorified Christ, through the mediumship of an angel. It is presented as a prophecy and warning of the things that must shortly be done, for the time is at hand. So the book may be regarded as one record of the excited expectations of the Christian Church at the close of the first century, or soon after. In the earlier letters of Saint Paul, we find him teaching that the Lord Jesus was about to descend from heaven in flaming fire to destroy the wicked, to raise the righteous dead, to change the living believers into the likeness of his own glorified form, and to bear them all aloft in the air, that so they might be ever with the Lord. He looked for these things to happen in that generation. These apostolic writings give us one more proof of the Vitality of truth, even when mixed with error.

This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sunrise, Noonday, and Sunset of the Day of Grace The familiar story, as we are to use it, opens a subject which every friend of chil dren must love to consider. An old man believes that a child has been called of God. An ordained minister of religion the high-priest of the Hebrews welcomes a little boy as the messenger of the Lord. That is all. But is not that enough to start very earnest and serious thought? The child whom God calls is not to be neglected; is not to be kept at a distance; is not to be disparaged. In his visible kingdom there should be a prompt and cordial welcome fore'very such child; and the nurture of the household of faith should be directed towards the maintenance and the development of the responsive faith' of children. Let us surrender ourselves to the leadership of this thought, as we propose, and consider the three practical questions: Does the Lord still call children; unto What does he call them; and how shall it be known that they have been called?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Year of Miracle: A Poem in Four Sermons IF a sunset were as rare as a comet, the people would all be out upon the hill-tops astrono mers with their telescopes, poets with their pens, artists with their brushes - to capture what they could of it, and give it immortality. Or, if only once in a year the eastern skies held sunrise, we should be out of bed betimes that morning to watch the gold and crimson pa geant passing up the sky. But because these glories face us every day, we are color-blind to them. Still worse with glories that are near as well as frequent. We envy a friend starting for Europe, going where there is so much to see, we say, Alps, cathedrals, and old art as if a year spent in the nearest pasture would not crowd our mind with miracles, if only we had eyes to see with!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Day Dawn and the Rain: And Other Sermons The following Sermons have been given to the press chiefly for the sake of those whom the author was ao customed to address by the living voice, and whom he can, at present, reach but seldom through that means. His purpose will be served if the volume helps them in the way of remembrance, and more than served if, through God's blessing, it shall prove of any use beyond their circle. Most of the Sermons, though not all, have been preached, and the exception is referred to in order to account for some of them exceeding the limits which are ordinarily assigned to spoken discourse. The sub jects have not been selected with any attempt at unity in the illustration of Christian doctrine or duty. An effort has rather been made to secure a variety of topics. When human knowledge and life are Spreading out into ever wider circuits, the Christian ministry must seek to show itself a debtor to men of every class and char acter, and must endeavor to prove that there is no de partment of thought or action which cannot be touched by that Gospel which is the manifold wisdom of God. The more we study the way of God's commandments, the more shall we find it as broad as his other works, and increasingly rich to meet all the developments of human nature. At the same time, it is hoped that theunity sought to be indicated by beginning and ending the volume with Christ Jesus, is not merely and that, whatever may be the theme, it will be seen and felt to base itself on that One Foundation, and to strive, though all imperfectly, after the excellency of his knowledge.

He first came into general notice while working as the conference agent to build up the North Georgia Orphans' Home. This institution was in debt, and in endeavoring to extricate it Mr. Jones traveled beyond his conference borders, and people who heard him were not slow to sound his praises. He succeeding in clearing Goff the incumbrances on the home, refurnished it, and still mam tains it by his own exertions.

Download or read book The Christian Goddess written by Bonnie Gaarden and published by Government Institutes. This book was released on 2011-04-29 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian Goddess: Archetype and Theology in the Fantasies of George MacDonald, examines this British Victorian writer's employment of female figures to represent Deity. Such symbolism is extremely unusual for a Christian author of this period and anticipates the efforts of many modern theologians to develop an image of God as Mother. Bonnie Gaarden reads the goddess-figures in MacDonald's fantasies as both archetypes of the collective unconscious and as emblems articulating MacDonald's unique Christian theology, which is Trinitarian, Neo-Platonic, mystical and universalist. The goddesses become the central figures around which the author develops her interpretations of MacDonald's adult fantasy-novels, his children's books and some of his fairy tales. These readings discover MacDonald's ideas about God and the nature of good and evil, models of spiritual and psychological development that foreshadow the theories of Carl Jung and Eric Neumann, and acerbic commentary on the values and customs of Victorian society and religion. According to The Christian Goddess, MacDonald's Romantic belief in God's self-revelation in Nature led him to create Nature-mothers (such as the Green Lady in 'The Golden Key' and Lilith's Eve) which evoke both the Great Mother archetype described by Eric Neumann, and the modern neopagan Great Mother as developed in the works of James Frazer, Robert Graves, and Marija Gimutas. MacDonald dramatized his view of evil and its cure in the title character of Lilith, a Terrible Mother archetype historically embodied in the Hindu goddess Kali. MacDonald's notion of the world as Keat's 'vale of Soulmaking,' also elaborated by religious philosopher John Hick, is conveyed by Magic Cauldron archetypes in The Wise Woman, 'The Gray Wolf,' and Lilith. Muse-figures in Phantastes and At the Back of the North Wind express MacDonald's conviction that a 'right imagination' is the voice of God, while Divine Children in The Wise Woman and 'The Golden Key' communicate his belief that 'true childhood' is the Divine nature. The great-grandmother in the Princess books, a personification of the multi-dimensional activity of Divine Wisdom, springs from the Judeo-Christian Sophia and the classical Athena, while Kore figures in The Princess and the Goblin, Lilith, and Phantastes re-present the transforming descents of Persephone and Christ. This book shows MacDonald's fantasies as a chronological bridge, anchored in the traditions of the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament, incorporating the teachings of Christian mysticism and theistic Romanticism, and linking to the contemporary concerns in Western society that have given birth to the New Age. The Christian goddess portrayed in these fantasies may strike the reader as a Deity whose time has come.

I once heard a well-known man, speaking of difficulties in the Bible, express himself between jest and earnest in this fashion The Gospels are a story, and a story may conceivably be untrue the epistles are arguments, and arguments may conceivably be unsound; but the Psalms are the immediate reflection of personal ex periences, and we can take them as they stand without asking any questions. Certainly that is true of the I 39th Psalm, which even in the Psalter has an eminence of its own, and brings us into contact with elemental religion, with the soul's direct and overwhelming ex perience Of God. None of us could have written it, but there is none of us in whom there is not an echo to its sublime and solemn utterance; and that echo is the spirit of God, bearing witness by and with His word in our hearts. The Psalm has four strophes, each Of six verses; and in each'of the four an essential aspect or element in the soul's experience of God absorbs the mind of the writer. It will repay us if in following his thought his experience in any degree becomes ours. I. First, he is overpowered by the experience of God's perfect knowledge Of him.
