Indeed the too-familiar hagglings and bargain ings, the obscure and intricate diplomatic futilities of the Peace Conference already indicate that the old order is worn out. It has neither the political wisdom nor the moral energy to grapple with the problems it has itself created. We are the living witnesses of the collapse of a finished epoch; the new generation is already at work, in many nu related, apparently conflicting ways, at the building of another. Even now the stratum of our American society is tilting, slowly putting down the mighty from their seats and exalting the humble and meek. Even as we read a new world is coming up in sombre dawn!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and the Divine Order Then whole discussion will appear to many a pure anachronism. When we are in the throes of deciding whether our society is to rest on individual competition or legal socialism, what does it matter, they ask, whether men belong to one Church or many or none at all? Regarded as spiritual facts, however, what is now called individual competition and legal socialism are not opposites at all, for both alike are simply organised force. Where in our present industrial system is the personal dealing of man with man in trust, friendliness, and consciousness of mutual benefit, which makes relations individual?

Download or read book The Church and the Ever Coming Kingdom of God written by Elijah Everett Kresge and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and the Ever-Coming Kingdom of God: A Discussion of the Evolution of a Righteous Social Order, With Special Reference to the Mission of the Church in the Process The church's departure from that which was most fundamental in her Master was due to circumstances rather than to willful disloyalty. The church never meant to be disloyal or untrue to the will and purpose of her Lord. Least of all does the church of to - day mean to be disloyal. There is more of the spirit of the Master in the church today than at any other time of history. But our devotion to the church must not blind us to her short comings. When the ostrich pokes his head into the sand he does not obliterate the things around him; he merely deceives himself. Nor will the closing of our eyes and refusing to see change the facts of history. That the church has departed from the ideals and purposes that were most fundamental in the life and teachings of her Master is a plain fact of history. And that she has failed to adjust and to readjust her message and her ministry to the changes that have been wrought in the life of a growing world is also a plain fact of history. The church' is face to face with the need of a radical readjustment right now. If she should fail to readjust herself to her changing environment, as she did in certain similar sit nations in the past, the tragedy would be doubly sad. It would be a sad thing for the world, and sad for the church herself. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Church Teaching on Faith Life and Order This manual is designed to aid students of our English Church system. It may also be found useful to clergymen and others who have to conduct classes on the History and Doctrines of our Church, and who desire to follow the lines laid down by our Reformers. The need of some such manual has been widely felt, but it has not been easy to do exactly what was sought. Some of the topics touched upon are large and complicated, and brief utterances on them are liable to be misunderstood. The writers are conscious that in many respects they have fallen short of their own ideal, and that they may not have fulfilled the expectations and requirements of those whose interests they have at heart. But they have sought to face the varied aspects of this subject fairly, if not fully, and clearly, if not completely.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and the Russian Revolution The epochal changes which revolutionized the very foundations of Russian life had a rousing effect upon the rest of the world. Where changes of such magni tude and far-reaching consequences are concerned, it is inevitable that the movement causing them be both extolled and condemned by doctrinaires of opposite tempers, without either' much critical regard for the exact course of events, or much historical discrimina tion of them. Hence, before any judgment worthy of respect may be passed upon such a cataclysmic event, it is imperative for a careful investigator to make sure of the exact facts upon which to base his opinions and conclusions.

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.

Even within its own borders, oppositions to the primi tive faith increased In number and in influence. This was, in a good measure, the consequence of Christianity being embraced by the great ph'ilosophers of the day.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church on the Changing Frontier: A Study of the Homesteader and His Church The Committee on Social and Religious Surveys was organized in January, 1921.

Fosdick, Treasurer; James L. Barton and W. H. P. Faunce. Galen M. Fisher is Associate Executive Secretary. The offices arc at 111 Fifth Avenue. New York City. In the field of town and country the Committee sought first of all to conserve some of the results of the surveys made by the Interchurch World Movement. In order to verify some of these surveys, it carried on field studies, described later, along regional lines worked out by Dr. Warren H. Wilson * and adopted by the Intcrchurch World Movement. These regions arc: I. Colonial States: All of New England, New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey. II.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and the Problems of to-Day N the midst of contradictory beliefs of every description, the world is at a loss to know what should be accepted as true. Theories are conceived, as it were, over night; long-estab lished customs are abandoned; doctrines of un questionable authenticity are ruthlessly over thrown, - in a word, chaos reigns in the world of thought and deed. But one institution re tains the stability of centuries; and men and women of judgment hopefully turn their eyes to her, the one whom ages and changes have not altered - the Roman Catholic Church.
