Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian According to Paul Ye were at that time separate from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of the promise, having no hope and without God in the world - Eph 2. 12. Times have changed, but have the hearts of men changed? How truly do the outstanding words and phrases of this verse, in which Paul vividly described to the Ephesians their state before they accepted Christ, picture the condition of those today who do not know Christ? What does it mean that they are apart from the company of those who live in Christ's light? What is the result of the fact that their manner of life has set them in opposition to the friends of Christ? Is it a loss that they are strangers to his ways, his thoughts, his promises? Have they hope of any real good? What is the effect of being without God? How much real satisfaction can there be in the life that does not know him? What book in the Bible has most to say about hope? Who inspires hope? How important a place does Paul give to hope? (consult a concordance.)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paul: A Servant of Jesus Christ In these chapters I have used the Epistles more largely than the Acts, as I desired to describe his life from within, and as it appeared to himself. In many cases, therefore, the historical has been subordinated to the auto-biograph ical. I have taken advantage of some of the latest books which have dealt with this subject but for the most part the fol lowing pages contain the essence of years of my own think ing and preaching. Such as they are, I send them forth, trusting that they may incite many to follow Paul as he fol lowed Christ and to yield themselves, as he did, to God.

Download or read book The First Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians Classic Reprint written by James Moffatt and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians The aim of this commentary is to bring out the religious meaning and message of the New Testament writings. To do this, it is needful to explain what they originally meant for the communities to which they were addressed in the first century, and this involves literary and historical criti cism; otherwise, our reading becomes unintelligent. But the New Testament was the literature of the early Church, written out of faith and for faith, and no study of it is intelli gent unless this aim is kept in mind. It is literature written for a religious purpose. These are written that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.' This is the real object of the New Testament, that Christians might believe it better, in the light of contemporary life with its intellectual and moral problems. So with any commentary upon it. Everything ought to be subordinated to the aim of elucidating the religious content, of showing how the faith was held in such and such a way by the first Christians, and of making clear what that faith was and is. The idea of the commentary arose from a repeated demand to have my New Testament translation explained; which accounts for the fact that this translation has been adopted as a convenient basis for the commentary. But the contri butors have been left free to take their own way. If they interpret the text differently, they have been at liberty to say so. Only, as a translation is in itself a partial commen tary, it has often saved space to print the commentary and start from it.

Download or read book Bible Studies in the Life of Paul Historical and Constructive Classic Reprint written by Henry T. Sell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-04 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bible Studies in the Life of Paul, Historical and Constructive The book of Acts shows in a very graphic way the rapid growth and marvelous progress of Christianity in the midst of great Opposition. We see in process of ful fillment the promise of Jesus Christ to his disciples that they should receive power after the Holy Ghost had come upon them and that they should be witnesses unto Him both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and in Samaria and unto the uttermnst part of the earth. Those were earn est times and full of stirring events, when men went forth to conquer a hostile world not With swords, but by the preaching of a gospel of peace and good will. As soon as this proclamation was made in Judea and Samaria a new instrument was chosen by Jesus Christ, in Paul, to carry His message to the uttermost part of the earth. He thus became at once the chief character in the larger work of planting and developing churches outside of Palestine. The study of Paul's life shows the difficulties encountered, the doctrines taught, and the organization perfected in the early churches. We here watch the dawn of the gospel which the Savior preached as it broadens gradually into the boundless day.

Download or read book Paul s Joy in Christ written by A. T. Robertson and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paul's Joy in Christ: Studies in Philippians These lectures were first prepared as expository talks from the Greek text for the Northfield Conference for Christian workers in August, 1913. They were delivered in Sage Chapel and their publication was requested by the hearers. The addresses have since been repeated at Winona Lake, Indiana, Columbus, Ohio, Virginia Beach, Moody Bible Institute, and to various other assemblies and churches. The Greek text is kept in foot-notes so that the average man can read the book with comfort without a knowledge of Greek. The volume is essentially popular in style and purpose, while the latest researches of modern scholarship are utilized for the illustration of this noble Epistle. Nowhere is the tender side of Paul's nature better shown than here, his delicacy, his courtesy, his elevation of feeling, his independence, his mysticism, his spiritual passion. My book is not so much a technical commentary, though it covers all the Epistle, as an interpretation adapted to modern needs on the part of all teachers, preachers and students of the New Testament. Nowhere does Paul have more "charm," to use Ramsay's phrase, than in Philippians. Nowhere is he more vital and more powerful.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fundamentals of Christianity a Study of the Teaching of Jesus and Paul This book will not attempt formal proof of the foregoing propositions. They will only incidentally, and almost accidentally, furnish subject of discussion. T hey are the fundamental data on which the entire discussion proceeds; so nearly axiomatic, in the author's View, that the mere statement of them should secure hearty assent from the thoughtful Christian reader. Indeed, his fear is that more readers will pronounce them truisms than untruths. But it is only fair to give warning that any reader who seriously dissents from them will do well to lay the book aside at this point, as it would probably be pure waste of time and mental energy for him to read further. For if these fundamentals are untrue, or even doubtful, the following pages are worthless. 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 Christianity of St. Paul Divine Nature, we need not hesitate to allow that there is some truth in it - some truth, at least, as far as it concerns a great many disciples even of the purest creed. Christians, no doubt, there have been and are, whose conceptions of God are inadequate even to the verge of triviality and ehildishness - involving, when analysed, all sorts of moral impossi bilities and contradictions. When we think or speak of God as a Being whose govern ment and actions are easily comprehended and explained, or as a Man, infinitely greater, it may be, and wiser than ourselves, yet, like ourselves, full of partialities and petty schemes and unjust thoughts: when we so speak or think, we are fairly open to such a charge as this.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spiritual Development of St. Paul This little book has occupied me at intervals nearly two years in writing, and a good many years in thinking. The problem I set before myself was this: assuming that the thirteen epistles of St Paul are genuine, and waiving for the present all ques tions of Biblical criticism, is it possible to regard these as marking the stages of a progressive develop ment? Is it possible out of these alone, and with out the aid of any foreign materials, to construct a fairly correct picture of the successive phases of Paul's Christian experience? The design of the book is therefore a limited one; it is strictly con fined within these thirteen epistles. Even within these boundaries its title involves an additional limit. On the one hand it is a development of St Paul, not of Saul of'tarsus; on the other hand, it is his spiritual development, as distinguished alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religious Experience of Saint Paul My experiment, however imperfect its success, certainly produced in me a growing sense of the greatness of Paul and the reality of his inspiration. His powerful intellect is not so remarkable for its constructive force as for its marvellous good sense and practical efficiency. He has an intense feeling, both above and on the threshold of consciousness, for what is necessary for the future of the Christian society. His whole soul is filled and possessed by a profound sense that he is but the agent and interpreter of a power within and above him. This power works primarily in his own person, and in all those who receive inspiration from him, in a love of love, of sweetness, gentleness, and righteousness, a love which makes rules unnecessary, and aspiration to a higher life the very breath of the spirit. But from time to time in the letters there come human touches, touches pathetically human, which remove the writer by a whole abyss from the preacher who stands above his audience, or the prophet who has no feeling for anything except his message.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Testament Teaching in the Light of St. Paul'sAny are the works on New Testament Theology, and on particular doctrines, and on the doc trines of particular writers. But it needs more careful reading than most students have time for to gain from them a general grasp of the development of Christian thought. In the following pages, which contain an expansion of lectures delivered in Dublin to Divinity students and others, a method is followed which the writer believes has never been applied systematically to the New Testament as a whole. As the motion of objects at a distance can be more easily observed by noting their positions relative to a fixed mark, so the teaching contained in the several writings is noted in relation to St Paul's. The analogy Will not strictly hold because St Paul moved himself. But he has allowed us to know him so well that this method Offers the best criterion for placing the other teachers of the Church in the general movement. And although St Paul's own doctrine is not dealt with as a whole, we gain incidentally a wonderful impression of his uniqueness and spiritual power.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
