This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sermons on the Church, Preached Before the University of Oxford The danger had commenced in 1833 with the adoption and eager propagation, by a few individuals, of "Church principles," so called, much too closely allied to the system of Rome; and gradually advancing to the palliation of Romish errors, and their ultimate approval, the result appeared in 1845, in the open defection of many members of the Church of England from the pure truth of the Gospel. But so early as 1841, the growing uneasiness in several minds at the inconsistency between their acquired principles and those of the Church to which they had subscribed, seems to have led to a notable attempt to retain them within her communion, or even in her ministry, by reconciling Roman tenets with subscription to the Articles of the English Church. For a while even ingenuous minds were deceived by a specious theory; and the integrity of Subscription was sensibly impaired. Happily the mists are rolling away, although the horizon is not yet clear. This slight reference to the controversies of the day will account for expressions in these Sermons which might otherwise, perhaps, be obscure.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Five Sermons: Preached Before the University of Oxford Whether therefore ye eat, or drank, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. Christianity, like every other system, has its own end and object; and this end and object is identical with that for which the universe was formed - the promotion of the glory of God. For this the Father created the world, for this the Son redeemed the world, for this the Holy Ghost still abideth with the Church to sanctify its members. Such is the unity of design which pervades the works of nature and the words of reve lation, a unity of design which we should expect, a priori, when we remember that both proceed from the same divine source, the one and only God. And this, too, be comes the aim, the object, the design of every man, who, renewed and sanctified by the eternal Spirit, is a partaker of the divine nature - his ultimate end, his peculiar work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oxford Sermons: Preached Before the University But in every Church and in every age the Party of Growth has to contend with two other parties, the Party of Destruction, who would destroy every thing, and the Conservative Party, who would pre serve everything as it is; and these two Parties will always make themselves more easily intelli gible than the first - the Party of Progressive Truth. To retain everything exactly as it is, or to destroy everything root and branch - either of these has the merit of being a plain policy, appreciable by the laziest of minds in the laziest of humours; and this in itself is no small commendation in a busy age which finds desul tory reading far more attractive than thought or study. The policy of the Party of Growth, necessarily involving partial destruction and par tial conservation, obliges them to give reasons for destroying some things and preserving others, and to justify their discrimination. But to dis criminate, how tedious! And to justify discrimi nation, how dull for the reader of the justification Not half so amusing, after dinner, as a slashing demonstration in some magazine (which everybody will read and talk about) that everything is naught, nor half so intelligible as next month's rejoinder, set off with epigrams, that whatever is, is good!

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Patience and Confidence the Strength of the Church: A Sermon Preached on the Fifth of November, Before the University of Oxford, at St. Mary's, and Published at the Wish of Its Members Non-resistance and passive Obedience, in the sense to which they are generally limited, are but two sides of the same doctrine, (the former speaking of it negatively, as not opposing force to force, the latter positively, as taking patiently whatever may be laid upon one, ) and, together, are only a particular application of a general principle. In religion, it is faith; under misfortune, it is resignation; under trial, it is patient waiting for the end; amid provo cation, it is gentleness; amid afi'ronts, meekness; amid injuries, it is endurance; towards enemies, non-requital; towards railing, it is not answering again to parents, it is filial obedience; to superiors, respect; to authorities, unquestioning submission; towards Civil Government, it is obedience upon principle, not only when it costs nothing, (as obedience to it ordinarily does not, and so can hardly be called the fulfilment of a duty, ) but when it costs some thing.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eight Sermons Preached Before the University of Oxford: Together With a Sermon, Delivered at an Ordination, Holden at Christ-Church by the Bishop of Durham, on Trinity Sunday, in the Year of Our Lord, 1810 Let us consider then, what love this is, which is so essential to our faithful discharge of\the mini sterial office. It is to be above any affection, which we retain on earth. If a Christian's heart must be in heaven, how much more the heart of a christian ministeri If the sheep must love their owner, how funch more the shepherd! He, who teaches others, must undoubtedly first teach himself: and of all points, necessary to be taught a christian, there is none more essential than the love of God and of Christ. He, who comes to follow Christ, as his minister, must love him more than parents, sisters. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twelve Sermons Preached in St. Paul's Cathedral, and Before the University of Oxford Without controversy great is the mystery of godliness God was manifest in the flesh. - 1 Timothy iii, 16. At length, my brethren, the Advent season has reached its close, and we are at Christmas eve. The period of expectation is over, and we are almost entering upon the early hours of that great and blessed festival on which the Christian Church keeps the birthday of her Founder; the day upon which He whom Christendom names the Saviour of the world was born of a human mother and entered this world to take His place among the things and scenes of Time. The Apostle's words to Timothy put before us forcibly and concisely the great master-truth which gives Christmas its meaning Without controversy great is the mystery of godliness God was manifest in the flesh. It is not the birthday Of a mere Sage and Philanthropist, which we celebrate to-morrow. That might be in itself reasonable and natural enough; but Christmas means much more than that. Christmas means the entrance into the human world of One who was at once its Architect and its Judge, under conditions which made Him the peer Of the poorest and youngest amongst us. It is the introduction of a new principle of life - into humanity which we thus commemorate. It is in fact nothing less than a new starting point in the world's history. It is the opening of a new fountain of salvation for man, unknown to him before. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Education of the Clergy at the Universities

Download or read book The Education of the Clergy at the Universities written by William Ince and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-02 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Education of the Clergy at the Universities: A Sermon Preached Before the University of Oxford, on Commemoration Sunday, June 11, 1882 N old ordinance of the University prescribed that the sermons on the Sunday preceding the first Tuesday in July should be preached by two Doctors of Divinity, with a special preference for those who, during the year, had been admitted to that degree. A change made some ten years ago adapted the letter of that ordinance to its spirit by fixing as the date of this special nomination of preachers that Sunday which has practically become the last in our academic year of residence, the Sunday before Commemoration. However much all the old ceremonies and formalities connected with taking degrees in the higher faculties have been modified and discontinued, I imagine that there still survives in the arrangements of the present day a suggestion that on this occasion there should be some exhibition of the relation in which Theo logy stands to other studies of the University, or some discussion of its method, condition, and contemporary aspects. And therefore, having been called upon by the vice-chancellor this year to perform this public function, I have thought it not inappropriate to bring before the notice of the University the subject of the education of the future clergy of the Church of England in the Uni versities under existing circumstances.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Luther Commemoration and the Church of England: A Sermon Preached Before the University of Oxford on Sunday, November 11, 1883 As free, and not using your liberty for a cloke of maliciousness, but as the servants of God. - 1 peter ii. 16. IT is known, probably, to most here present that this Sunday is being observed throughout Protestant Germany as the commemoration of the 400th anniversary of the birthday of Luther, who was born at Eisleben, in Saxony, on November 10th, 1483. No doubt the memory of the great reformer comes home with greater intensity of sympathy to the German than to any other European people. For he is emphatically the German national hero; he has been the inspiring principle of their later political and ecclesiastical freedom; he was the virtual creator of their literary language by his translation of the Bible; some of his hymns have all the might of popular national ballads, and awaken undying enthusiasm on all critical occasions when the hearts of assembled multitudes are deeply stirred.
