This book was released on 2018-01-24 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bible and the Rule of Faith I do not aim at awaking religious antipathies, creat ing agitation, sowing the seeds Of discord in our hitherto peaceful country; God forbid I should contribute to such an end! I only wish to show on What a fragile basis Protestantism is founded; to reply indirectly to a considerable number of Objections, so. Peremptorily made as to appear unanswerable; at the same time, I wish to strengthen the faith Of the weak, to arm them against the seductions of error, and to present the sweet light of Catholic truth to those who are not yet in our ranks. How many poor souls in the bosom of Protestantism are a prey to the anguish Of doubt! They are more numerous than is generally believed; they feel the need of some solid basis on which to found their belief, and they find it not. One resource remains Open to them, there is one infallible means of their finding that calm after which they sigh; they can enter the Catholic Church, and cling to the immovable rock which Jesus Christ Himself has given it as a foundation.

When I got religion I had but little learning, I could barely read and write, and that but very indifferently. I then thought, and yet think, that God then called me by his Holy Spirit to preach the Gospel. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Books of the Bible: New Testament Slight change of meaning. The books are not only the rule of the Church's faith; they are themselves in conformity with a standard. They find their place in a list which is accepted by the Church as the rule of what is or is not Scripture. SO Athanasius Speaks of books that are in this sense canonised, and the Council of Laodicea (am. 39) of those that are not so. Amphilochius (circ. A.d. 380) takes up the language of the Latin translator of Origen, and uses it for the actual Catalogue of Books. With Jerome the term is in frequent use in this sense, and from his writings it passed into the common language of Latin Christendom, and so into that of modern Europe, and men spoke of the Canonical Scriptures as those which were in the Canon.

But this being so, has the Church herself any guide external to herself, except the Holy Scripture, as illumined by the light of God's Holy Spirit? St. Paul.

Download or read book The Rule of Faith written by Ephraim Radner and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 1998-06-15 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays presented at the 1997 Scholarly Engagement with Anglican Doctrine (SEAD) Conference counters some of today's New Testament scholarship, particularly that of the Jesus Seminar. Asserting that only canon and creed can render knowledge of God, two generations of scholars speak for a retrieval of more traditional modes of interpretation by and for today's church. The Rule of Faith features three keynote addresses by eminent New Testament scholar the Rev. Dr. Brevard S. Childs, Sterling Professor of Divinity at Yale University, one of the most notable Biblical theologians in contemporary American Christianity. It also contains works by several younger scholars, many of whom studied with Dr. Childs and represent an emerging generation of orthodox Christian leadership for the Episcopal Church, including Ephraim Radner, George Sumner, Kathryn Greene-McCreight, Stephen Holmgren, R.R. Reno, Christopher Seitz, Kendall Harmon, William Witt, and Chris Brown. Their writings give voice to scholarly engagement with the creedal Christian faith in the Episcopal Church.

This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: Ill A.D. 70: FAITH ON TRIAL FINDS ITS VINDICATION IN RETROSPECT I GLORY IN HUMILIATION Some hold that Acts was written to put Christianity in a favourable light before the eyes of Roman authorities; that it was the earliest ' apology.' It seems more obviously to put the rule of Rome in a favourable light to the Christians, and the most natural way to read it is to suppose the story a true representation of things as they were during the missionary labours of S. Paul. In his epistles too Rome seems to be the just protective power which makes his hard task easier. But with S. Paul's death conditions changed. The Pastorals made us face the question whether S. Paul was released from his first imprisonment. The trend of criticism has been of late to suppose that he was. Mr. C. H. Turner in his article in Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible on the chronology of the New Testament arrives at the carefully calculated dates 59-61 for the captivity, then rather more than two years further work, then martyrdom about A.d. 64. In that year the fire at Rome caused Nero to find scapegoats in the Christians. That both S. Paul and S. Peter were martyred at Rome and both under Nero has been in effect the constant tradition of the Church. The evidence marshalled by Mr. Turner confirms the tradition, and it is reasonable to conclude that both apostles were put to death soon after the fire of A.d. 64. But the trials of the Christians on that occasion had an important consequence. The crucial question of the illegality of Christianity was then settled. The THE ERA OF PERSECUTION 119 violence of this first outbreak of persecution was not for some time repeated. Nevertheless the era of persecution had begun. Under Domitian (81-96) persecution was severe. The relations between the chur...
