Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historical and the Eternal Christ This short discussion of the relation of Christianity to its historical basis originally formed one of a series of lectures delivered in the Scottish Churches College, Calcutta, and intended for an educated Indian audience. I should not have entertained the idea of publishing the lecture in its present form, had it not been for the urgency of a Bengali friend, Mr. G. C. Ghosh, of Calcutta, who also generously insisted on defraying any expenses incurred in publication. I desire to ofi'er my sincerest thanks to Mr. Ghosh for his kindness, and to express the hope that the thoughts here presented may be of some slight use to any who are reflecting upon a problem of such vital importance for the Christian faith.

Download or read book A People s Life of Christ Classic Reprint written by John Paterson Smyth and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A People's Life of Christ He tells of the Father looking on us with love and pain. He tells of the joy in Heaven over one sinner that repents on earth; of the earth-children's guardian angels "always beholding the face of the Father which is in Heaven." He tells of Abraham in that Unseen life rejoicing to see His day here, so interested is that world in ours. In the story of the Transfiguration, Moses and Elijah, two of the great old world saints, came out from that Unseen life to meet their Lord and speak to Him - of what? Of Pharaoh and the Red Sea - of Ahab and Naboth's vineyard - the things that interested them most on earth? Ah, no. They also had been caught up into the kindly interest of the great souls who are watching us from the galleries of Creation. "They spake of His decease which He should accomplish at Jerusalem." Does it not suggest the deep, absorbing interest which they and their great comrades within the Veil were taking in the drama of Redemption on earth? This is all comparatively modem - only two thousand years ago. But St. Paul tells the Ephesians that this deep interest in us has been from the beginning, that the coming of the Christ was no mere afterthought It was the eternal purpose of God's love, he says, from the foundation of the world that the eternal Christ should save humanity, that the poor earth-children should be gathered into the arms of the Father. God was always caring. Keeping all this in mind we shall better understand what the Bible teaches, that 'every incoming of God into human experience is prepared there in the Unseen before it expresses itself here in the Seen.

Download or read book Christ and the Eternal Order Classic Reprint written by John Wright Buckham and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christ and the Eternal Order Almost from boyhood the writer has been concerned in finding a mental setting for Jesus Christ. Sometimes it has been a disturbing, but more often a stimulating, problem. The problem arose apparently from the absorption of his earlier religious life in God as Presence and Father, and the difficulty in finding such a place beside him for Christ as the Bible and the Church seemed to require. For a time the words, "Believe in God, believe also in me," afforded temporary standing-room. The first clear light on the intellectual problem came, after entering the ministry, through reading Frederick Denison Maurice's Theological Essays, in connection with the words in Colossians, "Christ in you, the hope of glory." The result was a great illumination of mind and uplift of heart. The difficulty of accounting for Christ in the contrasted aspects of his historical limitation and his universal significance largely disappeared. The conclusions reached were presented in an article entitled "The Indwelling Christ," published in The Andover Review for August, 1891, and met with a very warm response. The substance of this article is included in Chapter II, Part III of this volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sermons on the Passion of Jesus Christ We can never at all realize or even have any idea of the meaning of the great, the stupendous fact which the Church today commemorates, unless we know and keep before us, Who it is that suffers on the cross. Hence I begin our instruction with asking - Who is it that hangs, agonizing and suffering, on the hill of Calvary? It is Jesus Christ, at once God and Man, the Eternal Word and Wisdom Of the Godhead, the very Figure of His substance and the Splendor of His glory; He before Whom the worlds tremble and the Angels are not pure. It is He Who from the beginning was in the Father; in Whom and by Whom and through Whom all things have been made; the Second adorable Person of the Blessed Trinity, and no less. Let this truth sink deep into your souls; for without it Calvary has no meaning. If Christ were but a mere man, His Sacrifice would not be that which it claims to be, and which it is our hope and security and salvation that it is.

Download or read book The Greater Life and Work of Christ written by Alexander Patterson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Greater Life and Work of Christ: As Revealed in Scripture, Man, and Nature It will be seen at a glance that this is not a life of Christ in the usual sense. It is not a review of the events of the earthly existence of our Lord. There is a greater life and a larger work of Christ of which his life on earth is but a single chapter. While no apology is needed for any publication of the great theme of the gospel, it may be stated that there is a special reason for such a book as this. The author has examined many works on Christ and lists of hundreds more, and has conferred with competent literary authorities, and has learned of few works, if any, covering this greater life and work of Christ. Such a study of Christ should be available. The author presents this, hoping it may in some measure supply the need, and lead to further presentation of this great theme by more competent students. There are still greater and more vital reasons for such a review of Christ. The Eternal Christ is the theme of Scripture, and not the Christ of the gospels simply. Until this is seen, the Bible will be an enigma. The study of the Bible should therefore begin with him who is its Alpha as well as its Omega. This book is a study of Scripture from this standpoint. It covers the whole Bible narrative, not in an attempt to mention all details, but only the great personages, events, and crises in which the person and work of Christ are seen.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Jesus, Concerning the Christian Life There is nothing plainer in the teach ing of Jesus than that religion is worthy Of being the principal thing and that He wanted men to make it such - that He desired them to give to the Christian life the place Of supreme importance. He said, Seek ye first His (god's) king dom, and His righteousness (matt. Vi. And, Work not for the food which perisheth, but for the food which abideth unto eternal life (john vi. TO one who came running and kneeling and in quiring Of Him the way Of life, but who would not definitely enter upon it when told what to do, Jesus said, One thing thou lackest (mark X. The thing he lacked was plainly the principal thing. Jesus SO regarded it. The young man was very rich, but plainly he was not rich toward God. Well did Jesus, on another occasion, ask, For what doth it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life? For what should a man give in exchange for his life?

Now the first appetite man had in order to his great end was, to be as perfectas he could, that is, to be as like the best thing 'he knew as his nature and condition would permitd. And although by Adam's fancy and affection to his wife, and by God's appointing fmit for him, we see the lower appetites were first provided for; yet the first appetite which man had, as he distinguishes from lower creatures, was to be like God, (for by that the devil tempted him, ) and in order to that he had naturally sufficient instruments and abilities. For although by being abused with the devil's sophistry he chose an incompetent instrument, yet because it is naturally certain that love is the greatest assimilation of the object and the faculty, Adam by loving God might very well approach nearer Him according as he could. And it was natural to Adam to love God, who was his father, his creator, the fountain of all good to him, and of excellency in Himself; and whatsoever is understood to be such, it is as natural for us to love, and we do it for the same reasons, for which we love any thing else; and we cannot love for any other reason but for ione or both these in their proportion apprehended.
