Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Simple Studies in Romans It is fitting that Romans should be located at the beginning of the New Testament epistles, because of its fundamental character, setting forth as it does in logical order of sequence the things that are elementary in "the faith which was once delivered to the saints." In these studies the purpose is to help the children of God to a clear understanding of the wonderful truths set forth in Romans, to the end that they may be established. In the final chapter of the book it is declared that God is able to establish His people, and it is pointed out that His means of thus establishing them is according to what Paul calls his own gospel, "and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery." Paul's gospel, including "the revelation of the mystery," finds its beginnings in Romans. The body of truth revealed to Paul had been "kept secret since the ages began, but now is made manifest," starting with Romans (Rom. 16:25, 26; Eph. 3:5-7). The Thessalonian epistles, and some others, were written before this book, but it is hard to resist the conclusion that the Holy Spirit has superintended the arrangement of the books of the New Testament, and that among the epistles, Romans is rightly first.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Romans The book of Holy Scripture is an unfolding of the pur pose, plan and program of God, from Genesis to Revela tion, each book or books, equally inspired of God (2 Tim. 3: 15; 2 Pet. 1: but each succeeding part adding to the progressive unfolding of God's purpose in the process of revelation. We insist at once and always, that the subject-matter of the Scriptures has to do with three classes, viz.: the Jew, the Gentile and the Church of God. These are not identical, never have been and never will be. Kingdom and Church have not a single letter in common. There is no way, logically, etymologically or theologically, to induce them to mean the same thing. The Epistles of Paul are addressed to the Church of God, and are as distinct from the other writings as the Church is in her calling and character, conduct and destiny, from Israel and the nations. The student must face this fact or fail to grasp the meaning of the Book! The saddest fact in the history of the Church is the ignoring of the Church Epistles. They are looked upon as but an appendage to the Gospels and Acts - as having about as much significance as a footnote to a book, and about the same relation - incidental when they are fundamental.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Roman History Finally I wish to express my great obligations to my friend Mr. Rolfe, without whose assistance this volume could never have been prepared. He has not only care fully gone through all the essays, preparing them for press, but has undertaken the entire work of correcting the proofs - a task of no small difficulty considering the intricate nature of the notes.

Download or read book The Private Life of the Romans Classic Reprint written by Harold Whetstone Johnston and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Private Life of the Romans On the other hand it is equally true that a knowledges of political history is necessary for the study of Private Antiquities. We shall find the Romans giving up certain ways of living and habits of thinking that seemed to have become fixed and characteristic. These changes we could not explain at all, if political history did not inform us that just before they took place the Romans had come into contact with the widely different ideas and opposing civilizations of other nations. The most important event of this sort was the introduction of Greek culture after the Punic wars, and to this we shall have to refer again and again. It follows from all this that students who have had even the most elementary course in Roman history have already some knowledge of Private Antiquities, and that those who have not studied the history of Rome at all will find very helpful the reading of even the briefest of our school histories.

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: Excerpt from The Study of Roman History The aim of this little book is different. As a tutor in Roman History, I have at times been accused by worried pupils of delighting over much in the heuristic method. This simply means that I like asking them questions and dislike impart ing information in tabloid shape. This is really the main object of this book also - to ask questions, to suggest to any student who may read it subjects for his own consideration and research. It has certainly not been my primary object to tell once more the often-repeated tale of Rome's history. To be in charge of a working-party in a trench has some advantages as well as responsibilities. To direct, to encourage, at times to take a hand this is similarly my desire in this book. Above all, it is meant to provoke enquiry, if not dissent, by the workers (a proceeding viewed with less favour in a trench). I hope that its main feature may turn out to be as it were a menu to the banquet. If taken as the banquet itself it will be Barmecide fare.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Common People of Ancient Rome, Studies of Roman Life and Literature This book, like the volume on Society and Politics in Ancient Rome, deals with the life of the common people, with their language and literature, their occupations and amuse ments, and with their social, political, and eco nomic conditions. We are interested in the common people of Rome because they made the Roman Empire what it was. They car ried the Roman standards to the Euphrates and the Atlantic; they lived abroad as traders, farmers, and soldiers to hold and Romanize the provinces, or they stayed at home, work ing as carpenters, masons, or bakers, to supply the daily needs of the capital.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Roman Mosaics: Or Studies in Rome and Its Neighbourhood Many of the points touched upon have pro voked endless disputations which are not likely soon to be settled. Indeed there is hardly any line of study one can take up in connection with Rome which does not bristle with controversies; and a feeling of perplexity and uncertainty con tinually haunts one in regard to most of the subjects. It is not only in the vague field of the early traditions of the city, and of the medieval traditions of the Church, that this feeling op presses one; it exists everywhere, even in the more solid and assured world of Roman art, literature, and history. Where it is so difficult to arrive at settled convictions, I may be par doned if I have expressed views that are open to reconsideration.

Download or read book Commentary on St Paul s Epistle to the Romans Classic Reprint written by F. Godet and published by . This book was released on 2016-07-23 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Commentary on St. Paul's Epistle to the Romans Coleridge calls the Epistle to the Romans the profoundest book in existence. Chrysostom had it read to him twice a week. Luther, in his famous preface, says This Epistle is the chief book of the New Testa ment, the purest gospel. It deserves not only to be known word for word by every Christian, but to be the subject of his meditation day by day, the daily bread of his soul. The more time one Spends on it, the more precious it becomes and the better it appears. Melanchthon, in order to make it perfectly his own, copied it twice with his own hand. It is the book which he expounded most frequently in his lectures. The Reforma tion was undoubtedly the work of the Epistle to the Romans, as well as of that to the Galatians; and the probability is that every great Spiritual revival in the church will be connected as effect and cause with a deeper understanding of this book. This observation unquestionably applies to the various religious awakenings which have successively marked the course of our century. The exposition of such a book is capable of boundless progress. In studying the Epistle to the Romans we feel ourselves at every word face to face with the unfathomable. Our experience is somewhat analogous to what we feel when contemplating the great masterpieces of mediaeval archi tecture, such, for example, as the Cathedral of Milan. We do not know which to admire most, the majesty of the whole or the finish of the details, and every look makes the discovery of some new perfection. And yet the excellence of the book with which we are about to be occupied should by no means discourage the expositor; it is much rather fitted to stimulate him. What book of the New Testament, says Meyer, in his preface to the fifth edition of his commentary, less entitles the expositor to spare his pains than this, the greatest and richest of all the apostolic works? Only it must not be imagined that to master its meaning nothing more is needed than the philological analysis of the text, or even the theological study of the contents. The true understanding of this masterpiece of the apostolic mind is reserved for those who approach it with the heart de scribed by Jesus in His Sermon on the Mount, the heart hungering and thirsting after righteousness. For what is the Epistle to the Romans 2 The offer of the righteousness of God to the man who finds himself stripped by the law of his own righteousness (i.
