Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sermons to the Natural Man It is with a solemn feeling of responsibility that I send forth this volume of Sermons. The ordinary emotions of authorship have little place in the experience, when one remembers that what he says will be either a means of spiritual life, or an occasion of spiritual death. I believe that the substance of these Discourses will prove to accord with God's revealed truth, in the day that will try all truth. The title indicates their general aim and tendency. The purpose is psychological. I would, if possible, anatomize the natural heart. It is in vain to offer the gospel unless the law has been applied with clearness and cogency. At the present day, certainly, there is far less danger of erring in the direction of religious severity, than in the direction of religious indulgence. If I have not preached redemption in these sermons so fully as I have analyzed sin, it is because it is my deliberate conviction that just now the first and hardest work to be done by the preacher, for the natural man, is to produce in him some sensibility upon the subject of sin. Conscience needs to become consciousness. There is considerable theoretical unbelief respecting the doctrines of the New Testament; but this is not the principal difficulty. Theoretical skepticism is in a small minority of Christendom, and always has been. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Sermons to the Natural Man written by William G. T. Shedd and published by . This book was released on 2018-12-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In twenty sermons, William G. T. Shedd discusses topics of spiritual life and Christian theology; God and His infinite knowledge of the world and of mankind, and the role of sin. A great compendium of Shedd's finest preaching, this book was published in an attempt to express the divine truth of God. Unabashed about the lecture's focus on sin and the almighty power of the Lord, the words here attempt to explain the core truths of the Bible. Christ's life and purpose, the events and circumstances surrounding His life, and the ineffable tenets which all believers must heed - these topics stand at the core of what W. G. T. Shedd wishes to express. The author is wary of attaining a balance in these writings, musing that it is all too easy for a learned man of God to slip too greatly toward severity. Another peril is omitting crucial analyses, or delving insufficiently into topics: from the outset, Shedd makes clear that he wishes to give readers his complete understanding of sin in Christian theology, and of the religious attributes of Christianity, with authenticity. As one of Massachusetts' most lauded and accomplished Biblical theologians, William Shedd spent most of his life in the study of God. Throughout his career he published essays and sermons; voracious in his pursuit of understanding, he would also branch out into English literature, attaining a professorship in that subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Divine Life in Man: And Other Sermons Often as any soul comes under the regenerating power of the gospel and is born into the kingdom. This is what is brought out with an almost start ling distinctness in the group of passages standing at the head of this discourse. Man, like God, is per sonal and spiritual. He has the source of his being in God. He has come into life in virtue of the breath Of God in his soul. He has a certain intel lectual and moral likeness to God; and by cultivation and discipline this likeness may be advanced till his thought and will reflect, in some measure, the thought and will of God, and all his movements and desires are in the direction of God. He may yield his whole nature - all his powers and faculties - up to the guid ance of God, and the current of an exalted fellow ship may flow back and forth between his heart and the heart Of God. Having fallen out of this fellow ship, and lost this divine life, through sin, he may yet find it again through faith in the Son of God, who came into the world for the express purpose of renewing men dead in trespasses and sins, and re storing the marred image in which they were made. He may have inward witness that God is his Father, and that he is God's child. He may know and eh joy God. These are general statements covering the case. The further development of the subject will be pro moted best by asking two or three questions. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains 26 sermons, and in the words of the author: "This volume is complementary to another, published in 1871, under the title of 'Sermons to the Natural Man.' In the earlier volume, the author aimed to address the human conscience. In this, he would speak to the Christian heart. The former supposed original and unpardoned sin, and endeavored to produce the consciousness of it. The latter supposes forgiven and indwelling sin, and would aid in the struggle and victory over it. - Publisher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church's One Foundation: And Other Sermons Our text, like many other passages of Holy Writ, is one which, through the false interpretation put upon it by corrupt human nature, has been made to feed and foster the very propensity which it was given to subdue. The selfish love of the natural man is inclined to arrogate to itself supreme dominion over others - do minion over their souls as well as their bodies. It craves all power in heaven and on earth. And the rea son is, because self-love, Viewed as to its interior and real quality, is the love of being as God - the love of absolute supremacy - the love of owning no superior and of being subject to no control. And of all the evil lusts of the natural man, the lust of dominion is the most dangerous, the most infernal. It comes from the lowest and worst of all the hells, and tends to drag all who receive and cherish it down to the same dark abyss.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1907 edition. Excerpt: ... unless they fictitiously adopt the language they hear, they are painfully conscious that they know nothing of them as yet. They hear of a depression for sin which they certainly have never experienced--a joy in God, making His service and His house the gate of heaven; and they know that it is excessively irksome to them--a confidence, trust, and assurance, of which they know nothing--till they take for granted what has been told them, that they are not God's children. Taught that they are as yet of the world, they live as the world--they carry out their education, which has dealt with them as children of the devil, to be converted: and children of the devil they become. Of these two views, the last is by far the most certain to undermine Christianity in every Protestant country. The first at least assumes God's badge, an universal one; and in education is so far right, practically: only wrong in the decision of the question how the child was created a child of God. But the second assumes a false, partial, party-badge--election, views, feelings. No wonder that the children of such religionists proverbially turn out ill. III. We pass to the doctrine of the Bible and (I believe) of the Church. Christ came to reveal a Name--the Father. He abolished the exclusive "my," and He taught us to pray "our Father." He proclaimed God the Father--man the Son: revealed that the Son of Man is also the Son of God. Man--as man, God's child. He came to redeem the world from that ignorance of the relationship which had left them in heart aliens and unregenerate. Human nature, therefore, became, viewed in Christ, a holy thing and divine. The Revelation is a common humanity, sanctified in God. The appearance of the Son of God is the sanctification of the human...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Natural Equality: A Sermon Before the Vermont Colonization Society, at Montpelier, October 17, 1833 That is God has given to all men the same nature, that they may all receive and enjoy the benefits of the same gos pel. These benefits are, spiritual, consisting in the eternal salvation of the soul from wickedness and misery; and tem poral, consisting in the enjoyments which belong to a truly religious citizen of a free, Christian community; such a com munity as the principles of the gospel tend to form. The text, then, in its connexion, brings to view the fundamental doctrine of our Declaration of Independence - that all men are created equal; endowed by their Creator with cer tain unalienable rights, among which are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

This book was released on 2018-01-20 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of the Atonement and Other Sermons Jesus the Citizen was a Radical: that is, He was one who lived in connection with the root principles which underlie existence. He appeared in an age which scarcely knew if there be any principles for the basis of existence. The age was eminently a superficial one. Men were content to found life on dogmas and traditions, and they cared to go no deeper. Such an age is always in danger of a reformer, and the deepest and truest thing it has is an instinctive knowledge of this. For in the economy of God, a heart is certain to come at last to which dogma and tradition are insufficient, and with an insight which pierces through the accumubated falsehood of centuries to the truth that God must work on fixed principles. And then comes the almost agonising question after these. Thus appeared the Son of God, the eternal Word, the Truth! And the spirit of his day quailed instinctively in his; presence as before its natural foe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Sermons Vol 2 of 2 Classic Reprint written by Samuel Horsley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-17 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sermons, Vol. 2 of 2 The perfection of the Christian character, as may be collected from the apostle's description of his own feelings and his own practice, consists, it seems, in an earnest desire of perpetual progress and improvement in the practical habits of a good and holy life. When the apostle speaks of this as the highest of his own attainments, he speaks of it as the governing principle of his whole life and the perfective quality that he ascribes to it seems to consist in these three proper ties, that it is boundless in its energy, disinterested in its object, and yet rational in its origin. That these are the properties which make this desire of proficiency truly perfective of the Christian character, I shall now attempt to prove: and, for this purpose, it will be necessary to enquire what man's proper goodness is; and to take a view of man, both in his first state of natural innocence, and in his actual state of redemption from the ruin of his fall.
