Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dilemma of the Modern Christian How Much Can He Accept of Traditional Christianity? The following pages contain no attempt to solve the insoluble questions of modern thought. What has been aimed at is simply a statement concerning the central facts of Christian faith and worship. There are many people to whom the penumbra of faith is too congenial to allow them to feel at ease in the bright light of the central sun. Some of these may appreciate an honest expression con cerning the difficulties of their position. Those whose faith has suffered total eclipse - if there be any such - will not be influenced by another person's assurance that the sun still shines unto the coming of the perfect day. With those who have reached finality about the mo mentons questions of Christian prayer, the writer seeks no quarrel. He is aware that he has nothing to offer them.

The writer's own faith in God and God's message to man would make such a negative proceeding impossible. The modem man is asking questions. He wants to know.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Worthlessness of Christianity The object of Religion, as of Philosophy, is said to be the solution of two problems. It is to explain the How and the Why of things. Christianity explains the How with an account of the Creation; it explains the Why with an account of the Resurrection. But other religions exist which accept neither the one nor the other, or not in this form. The question at once arises, What is this Christian religion? Is it the only religion? Is it the only true one? Or is it so much truer than all the others, either separately or combined. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book From Achilles to Christ written by Louis Markos and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2009-09-20 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The heart of Christianity is a myth which is also a fact." --C. S. Lewis In From Achilles to Christ, Louis Markos introduces readers to the great narratives of classical mythology from a Christian perspective. From the battles of Achilles and the adventures of Odysseus to the feats of Hercules and the trials of Aeneas, Markos shows how the characters, themes and symbols within these myths both foreshadow and find their fulfillment in the story of Jesus Christ--the "myth made fact." Along the way, he dispels misplaced fears about the dangers of reading classical literature, and offers a Christian approach to the interpretation and appropriation of these great literary works. This engaging and eminently readable book is an excellent resource for Christian students, teachers and readers of classical literature.
Download or read book Popular Misconceptions as to Christian Faith and Life Classic Reprint written by Frank T. Lee and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Misconceptions as to Christian Faith and Life The central object of Christian faith is Jesus Christ. He is the corner-stone of the Christian system. But what is the foundation of our faith in Jesus Christ? What is the ultimate basis upon which the superstructure of the Christian system rests - the bed-rock of our convie tion of its reality, of its truth, and of our confidence in it? The misconceptions which prevail upon this point, not alone among skeptics and cavilers, but among Christian people as well, are numerous and radical. This fact leads to a confusion and an embarrassment of mind on the part of the latter, of which the opponents of Christianity, ever on the alert, are not slow to take advantage. There are those who entertain the idea that the basis of the Christian system is a creed. This, to their minds, is the final authority by which men must stand or fall in matters of religious belief. If this gives way, or if any article of it fails, the whole superstructure must fall. Than this there could hardly be a graver misconception. A creed is merely a summary of what some person, or a number of persons, conceive to be the fundamental truths of the Christian religion. This summary is not inspired, nor is it necessarily free from error. It is a human pro duction, an attempt to set forth in an orderly way the great truths of the Christian system, which are contained in the Scriptures, but which are nowhere formulated in them. But as men agree in accepting the Bible as a whole who yet differ in their judgments as to the interpreta tion of some parts of it, or as to what constitute its' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Thiselton Companion to Christian Theology written by Anthony C. Thiselton and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-06 with total page 884 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering everything from Abba to Zwingli, The Thiselton Companion to Christian Theology offers a comprehensive account of a wide sweep of topics and thinkers in Christian theology. Written entirely by eminent scholar Anthony Thiselton, the book features a coherence lacking in most multiauthored volumes. Drawing on his encyclopedic knowledge, gained from fifty-plus years of study and teaching, Thiselton provides some six hundred articles on various aspects of theology throughout the centuries. The entries comprise both short descriptive surveys and longer essays of original assessment on central theological topics -- such as atonement, Christology, God, and Holy Spirit -- and on such theologians as Aquinas, Augustine, Barth, Calvin, Kng, Luther, Moltmann, and Pannenberg. The book also includes a helpful time chart dating all of the theologians discussed and highlighting key events in Christian history; select reading suggestions conclude each of the longer entries. Equally valuable for research and teaching, The Thiselton Companion to Christian Theology will be a go-to reference for pastors, students, teachers, and theologians everywhere.

Download or read book Religion Federalism and the Struggle for Public Life written by William Johnson Everett and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1997-11-27 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade, the struggle for new forms of federal order and public life has exploded in central Europe, the former Soviet Union, and South Africa. Religious traditions and organizations have played a crucial role in these revolutions, and have also been critical to the establishment of constitutional orders in post-colonial countries like India. Moreover, they continue to undergird and to challenge the understanding of public life in the United States, whether in church-state conflicts or Native American religious claims. William Everett examines the role of religious traditions in the development of modern federal republicanism, seeking answers to such questions as: How have patterns of religious organization shaped federal republican orders? How do different cultures weave together these political and religious threads into a living fabric that fits their own cultural heritage? How are Western religious traditions of covenant and conciliarism relevant for understanding religion and constitutional developments in non-Western cultures? The author argues that a better comparative grasp of these dynamics is essential to our understanding of the establishment, sustenance, and development of federal republican governance. He presents, as a first step toward this goal, a detailed and comparative study of these patterns in India, Germany, and the United States.
