Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Credentials of Christianity In the past Christianity faced worse conditions than confront us today. When Hun and Vandal and Goth swept down through Europe and made a desert of it, Christianity took these barbarians and fashioned them into the civilized peoples of modern Europe. A new devastation now threatens the world. One thing only will save us from it, a return to Christianity; not merely a nominal return, but the adoption in private and public life of the principles and spirit of Christianity.

One finds in them a grateful stirring of recollections belonging to true theological culture, and to men whose names are synonyms for profound devotion and sound learning.

Download or read book The Credentials of the Gospel written by Joseph Agar Beet and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Credentials of the Gospel: A Statement of the Reason of the Christian Hope My vast obligations to the many writers in this important department of Theology, I can neither acknowledge nor estimate. From them probably has been learnt everything good in this volume. My earliest teachers were Butler and Paley. The famous Analogy is still a valued text-book in the schools of Theology, and an abiding power among the many phases of modern religious thought. And, although later Biblical research and modern modes of attack have made needful other works which have somewhat superseded those of Paley, he will ever hold his place of honour as a great leader in the historical attestation of the Gospel. Among recent works I may mention as of special value, The Gospel of the Resurrection by Westcott, The Basis of Faith by Conder, The Foundations of Faith by Wace, The Resurrection of our Lord by Milligan, and Christian Evidences viewed in relation to Modern Thought by Row; also by this last writer a very excellent and attractive book of small size and price entitled A Manual of Christian Evidences. Of the contribution to this subject which I now venture to give, the part most needing further development is the argument for the existence of God. But it seemed to me best, in the small space at my command, to discuss fully only one line of evidence, this being itself sufficient proof that the Gospel is true, referring to others merely as they lead up to this chief argument. A good popular book on the topic so scantily treated by me is the First Principles of Faith by Marshall Randles.

Download or read book The Rise of Christianity Classic Reprint written by Albert Kalthoff and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise of Christianity The truth is that not only must the Gospel stories of miracles be regarded as the outcome of legend-making or symbolical poetry, but the rest of their contents, unassailable in itself, must be granted to be intimately bound up with that element, and must not be considered as authentic history. Any man who has made some study of the question. And closely examined the contents of these remarkable writings - who has, in other words, clearly recognised subjective influence in the different stamp set on the words of Jesus by the several Evangelists - must long ago have awakened from the dream that we have here a sufficiently solid ground for the construction of a biography. The parables and the Sermon on the Mount, like the other sayings of Jesus, are found to be permeated with elements that can only have originated in the Christology of the community, not in the self-consciousness of Jesus. For instance, the well-known saying, which might be taken as a genuine utterance of Christ as far as its general contents go, Whoever will come after me must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow me (matt. Xvi. 24; Mark viii. 34; Luke ix. Cannot possibly have been spoken in this form before the crucifixion of Jesus. Thus there is a good deal in the Gospels that plainly bears the stamp of the consciousness Of the community and.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christianity of Christ But, alas, the roots of the tree penetrated to the fountain, and the whole was tainted, and now the spring is neglected and its waters forsaken. So men have often spoiled the truth as it is in Jesus by attempting to improve it. Instead of accepting it as it is in all its native plainness, undoctored and un alloyed, they have sought to subtract from it here and add to it there, and thus have either robbed it of its strength and glory, or turned thirsty souls from it altogether.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christianity Eichhorn's theory of the growth of the' Gospels is one very generally accepted, he considers that: the present Gospels were not in common circulation before the end of the second century, and that bef01e that time other Gospels were in common use, differn considerably from each other, but resting on a common foundation of historical' fact; all these, he thinks, were versions of an original 'gospel, a kind of rough outline of Christ's life and dis courses, put together without method or plan, and one of these would be the Memoirs of the Apostles, of which) Justin Martyr speaks. The Gospels, as we have careful compilations made: from these earlier histories, and we notice that, at the end of the second, and the beginning of the third, centuries, the leaders of the Church endeavour' to establish the authority of the four more methodically ar1anged Gospels, so as to check the reception of other Gospels, which were relied upon by heretics in their con troversies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evidences of Christianity The author would have composed and delivered the whole of the designed course at once, if his health and other duties had allowed. But finding himself quite exhausted with the effort so far as it has now been carried, and being unwilling to be taken off for a longer time together, from his other pastoral duties, he stopped when he had completed the arguments for the authenticity, credibility, divine authority, and inspiration of the scriptures; reserving the consideration of the internal evidences for another occasion. The uncertainty of that period, and in deed of every thing future, has led him to think that he should be better consulting his duty to his flock by submitting to them the present volume, than by waiting till the second was ready for delivery.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Doctrine of the Ages The substance of this book, in all of its essen tial features, was carefully read by the late Dr. A. J. Gordon, in manuscript. He urged its immediate publication, and consented to write an introduction to its pages. Before the closing chapters were completed he had passed away from his useful life. On this account his name has no connection with the book, further than this grateful acknowledgment of his encouraging words. The learned Dr. Harnack, in his History of Dogma, when speaking of the Christian's faith in God as the father of Jesus Christ, makes the following comprehensive statement: So far as this God is believed to be the omnipotent Lord of heaven and earth, the Christian religion includes a knowledge of God, of the world, and of the purpose of created things. These three spheres, then, are the proper objects of our contemplation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2019-03-09 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Central Evidences of Christianity It will be granted, to begin with, that these conceptions of a human life, actually realizing perfection, nay, embracing an incarnation of God, and thus affording a complete and divinely sanc tioned remedy for moral and spiritual evil, are the most remarkable, simply as conceptions, in all literature. The mere statement of them is enough to relieve us from the charge of vagueness and generality when we speak of the life, character, and work of Christ; we can therefore proceed to the argument of this tract, and show first that these are not mere conceptions, however great, but facts of a true and solid history; and then that all Christian evidence becomes, by this proof, strong with a new strength, and bright with a new light.
