Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and the Age Though it is not usual for a showman to begin by disparaging his own wares, I feel that some apology is needed for printing addresses which were not written for publication, which were delivered to a very quiet little society of London ladies, and the theme of which was neither chosen by the lecturer nor particularly congenial to him. I am also reluctant even to seem to have been provoked to justify myself against the absurd misrepresentations of the halfpenny news papers and their reporters. I am printing these addresses not on their account, but in deference to strong requests which I could hardly disregard, from those who heard them and many others. The latter, I fear, will find my remarks less bold and original than they had been led to expect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-19 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First Age of Christianity and the Church The favourable notice which this Translation has met with in so many quarters, and the demand for a Second Edition within six months of its appearance, afford a gratifying confirmation of the belief I had been led to entertain, that Dr. Dollinger's name would carry its own recommendation with it in this country, as in his own, and would at once secure attention to the intrinsic merits of a work proceed ing from his pen. It is hoped that the issue of a new Edition, in one volume, and at little above half the original price, may bring it within the reach of many, especially among the Clergy, to whom it might otherwise be less accessible.

Download or read book Ecclesia Discens written by James Hamilton Francis Peile and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-10 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ecclesia Discens: The Church's Lesson From the Age The Sermons and Essays contained in this volume belong to many times and many places but they are connected by a common thought which runs through them all, and have been chosen or written as bearing on the question which is implied in the title of the book - Ecclesz'a Dz'sams; the Church which somehow seems to have lost the right and power to teach the world and now has to learn from it, if nothing else, at least how to become its teacher again. In other words, I have tried to study the relation of Christianity to the intellectual and social re volutions which appear to be moving every day with increasing velocity about us. A time of swift change winnows out roughly the temporal from the eternal; and in such a time it is well for the persons and institutions that can discern for themselves where truth and life lie in adapta tion to environment, and where they lie in resistance to environment. The two parts of this book offer what have seemed to me hints and helps to that discrimination in the case of the Church and Christianity. I have not tried this time 'to raise more questions than I can solve'; but I expect that will be the result of my attempts at solution. In the first part of the book, the first two chapters deal generally with the religious unrest of the day; and the next three more specially with what is called Modernism. The two papers which follow, on the Sixth Chapter of St. John, ' and the Earliest Preaching, ' will probably puzzle some readers as to the reason of their inclusion. They are intended, not as serious critical studies, but rather as examples of the kind of interest that a very moderately equipped student can get from a reverent treatment of the Bible 'as any, other book.' In the second part, I have'to thank Mr. John Murray for his courtesy in allowing me to reprint the first paper called 'religio Pueri, ' which appeared originally in Tee mont/my Review. The titles of the remaining chapters sufficiently indicate their purpose; and a certain light is thrown, by the dates and places given, on the special conditions under which some of them were first delivered, and which have sometimes influenced the form of what is said in them.

TO do so is moral suicide. Acquaintance with facts and condi tions is essential to the proper consideration of ques tions affecting the life of the individual and of society. There were two facts uppermost in the minds of the editors when the question before us was first mooted. (1) There appeared to be a widespread indifference to the claims of the Church. (2) There were many who might easily be numbered as having the interests of the kingdom of God at heart yet were not enrolled members of the organized church. Concerning the first statement it has been amply confirmed by the opinions expressed in the following pages. As to the second statement there can be little doubt that there are many who, like Mr. Lincoln (see next page), are deterred from joining certain churches because Of the peculiar and complicated tenets professed.

Download or read book The Church and the Eastern Empire Classic Reprint written by Henry Fanshawe Tozer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and the Eastern Empire IT has often been said that the Eastern Church has no history independently Of the State; and this is so far true, that during long periods the annals of that Com munion have little else to show than lists of patriarchs. At the same time, at certain intervals episodes of great interest and importance occur, and from first to last the influence of the Church on the social and religious life of the Eastern Empire is a subject well worthy of study. To relate, however briefly, those episodes, and to trace the working of that influence, is the object of the pre sent volume. The early period, that Of the first four General Councils, belongs to the history of the Church at large, and therefore is only touched upon here as far as subsequent events depended upon it; it is the later, or Byzantine, age of the Eastern Church which we have especially to consider.

Our judgment of principles and persons should not be guided by the same rules. Principles are not affected by times and circumstances; they remain unalterable age after age, and what was taught by inspired Apostles remains the same yesterday, to-day, and for ever. -the forget fulness of this has caused more mischief in Christendom than historians have discovered. But individual character is influenced to a wonderful extent by the age in which our lots are cast. Christians of the first six centuries are not to be judged in the same way as Christians of the nineteenth.
