Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church the Hope of the Future Every day brings home to us more directly and more poignantly the terrible price which our nation with our allies is paying for the maintenance of freedom and right. The question presses harder on us whether there can be any return great enough to compensate for so great a loss. There is but one thing that can reconcile us to the sacri fices which have been made. It is that the suffering should be the birth-pangs of a new and better world. If things are to go on in much the same way as before, if with energies exhausted and resources depleted and infinitely poorer by the loss of its bravest and best the world is to resume unchanged its former course, then of all tragedies that which we are now witnessing is the greatest. Never was blood so freely shed. The agony is greater than we thought we should ever live to see and feel. But the saddest thing of all would be that the suffering should be in vain. How could we bear the thought of the countless graves in Flanders and in France, and on many far-off shores, or of the brave lives which the sea has engulfed, if from this sacrifice there is to come no commensurate fruit '2 Those who have fallen gave their lives for the sake of freedom and of right between man and man. We who still live owe it to them to see that the price has not been paid for nought. Not by our own choice, but by the fact that our lives and possessions are still ours only because other men have died, we are dedicated to the task of making the world worthy of so measureless a sacrifice.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heavenly Hope: Or What Is the Hope of Christian? What Is the Hope of the Church?

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.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Looking Forward: Or Bible Studies Into the Future 32 And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures? - Luke 24-32. "You never get to the end of Christ's words. There is something in them always behind. They pass into proverbs, they pass into laws, they pass into doctrines, they pass into consolation; but they never pass away, and, after all the use that is made of them, they are still not exhausted." "As long as the earth stands there will be truth old and truth new. There is old truth fixed and firm as the hills, and, as Pastor John Robinson said in 1620 to his pilgrim flock about to sail across the Atlantic, 'There is new truth yet to dawn upon the world.' He who spake in time past by the prophets, and later by his apostles, still speaks to successive generations; nor will he fail those who in our age humbly pray for clearer light upon his word."

Download or read book The Future State Classic Reprint written by S. C. Gayford and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-07 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Future State The Hebrew nation was a branch of that family of the human race which is known as Semitic. From this origin they derived not only their peculiarities of face and language, but also their earliest religious beliefs. And when they were chosen to be the recipients of a special Revelation from God, this did not mean that all their old religion was to be cleared away with one sweep, and the page left blank for the new religion to be imprinted on it. So far as we are allowed to perceive the workings of God in Revelation, they are not of this kind. The old religion was allowed to remain at first then, one by one, new truths were revealed and allowed to work upon the old beliefs, until gradually the old was purged first of its coarsest, least spiritual elements, and then by degrees of its other errors. A great truth was disclosed, and left to work in men's minds, to be assimilated, examined from this side and that, followed out in all its con sequences, until it'broke down all the old ideas which were inconsistent with it, and the way was cleared for a further and still fuller revelation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hope of the World: An Essay on Universal Redemption The question which is commonly stated by evangelical teachers, and which their theology has been an attempt, more or less successfully, to answer, is, What must I do to be saved from future punishment and it is constantly assumed, if a solution can be found to this query, that the individual believer has a ground of peace and comfort and personal assurance of safety upon which he can rest. To him, then, belong all the hopes and promises of the gospel, while those who have not arrived at the same solution, and rested upon the same means of salvation, are eternally lost.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Vision of the Future: A Series of Papers on Canon Farrar's "Eternal Hope" As bearing on this question, I purpose laying before the readers of this paper some private letters which passed between myself and a Roman Catholic priest, to whom I was led to send the sermon on the Spirits in Prison, which I preached at St. Paul's, and published in 1871. It will be admitted, I think, that the objection is stated by him with a force and subtlety to which my own style of thought and writing can make but distant approaches, and that, if my answers carry conviction with them to any thoughtful mind, as I venture to hope they may do, it is rather through their intrinsic force than through any skill in the advocate. Omitting portions of the letter which are strictly per sonal, my friend begins thus. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Surprised by Hope written by N. T. Wright and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2008-02-05 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years Christians have been asking, "If you died tonight, do you know where you would go?" It turns out that many believers have been giving the wrong answer. It is not heaven. Award-winning author N. T. Wright outlines the present confusion about a Christian's future hope and shows how it is deeply intertwined with how we live today. Wright, who is one of today's premier Bible scholars, asserts that Christianity's most distinctive idea is bodily resurrection. He provides a magisterial defense for a literal resurrection of Jesus and shows how this became the cornerstone for the Christian community's hope in the bodily resurrection of all people at the end of the age. Wright then explores our expectation of "new heavens and a new earth," revealing what happens to the dead until then and what will happen with the "second coming" of Jesus. For many, including many Christians, all this will come as a great surprise. Wright convincingly argues that what we believe about life after death directly affects what we believe about life before death. For if God intends to renew the whole creation—and if this has already begun in Jesus's resurrection—the church cannot stop at "saving souls" but must anticipate the eventual renewal by working for God's kingdom in the wider world, bringing healing and hope in the present life. Lively and accessible, this book will surprise and excite all who are interested in the meaning of life, not only after death but before it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Future State and Free Discussion: Four Sermons Preached in the First Presbyterian Church, of Oakland Form reasons will explain why the following sermons appear in print. The desxre of my friends to see them; the readiness of others to misstate their teachings; my willingness that the public should know the whole reason why I am under the necessity of separating from the Presbyterian Church; and above all, the hope that they may contribute something to the diffusion of a more healthful sentiment upon the main subject of which they treat. I am asked to print just as preached. Only the slightest changes, in no way affecting the sense, therefore, are made in any part, and none at all in the second discourse, which gave the chief ofi'ense. The fourth was added to the course as serving to explain, and perhaps justify, the attitude of Free Discus sion which I have taken. The Introductory History explains the rest. May the Truth prevail.
