Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Honor of the Church The critics, with great vigor ln their lit crary style, clamor for courage, self-devo tion, fidelity to duty, unconquerable cheer, loyalty, willingness to die for one's cause quoting again from another article in the Atlantic Monthly. They do well the idea is altogether sound, though in no sense new. And where are these qualities of cour age, devotion, fidelity to duty, and all the rest to be found at their best and in largest measure, not alone under the stimulus of a great war, where of necessity the demand for them will be limited to a brief period, but in the give and take, in the wear and tear, of a whole lifetime?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Civilization Owes to the Church At her very foundation Our Divine Savior gave to her these very definite charges: the diffusion among all nations of the teaching of Christianity; the preservation of the treasure of the Faith; the maintaining in honor before men the beauty of Christian revelation; the inclining of men's wil'ls to the observance of a lofty moral law. These were the commissions. Given to the Church in the beginning: a stupendous program, guaranteed against failure by Him who gave it. To bring men's minds into conformity with God's mind by right thinking, and men's hands into conformity with God's law by right acting - which alone is supernatural religion - this was the work of the Church.

Download or read book The Great First Work of the Church Missions Classic Reprint written by Wilbur Brenner Stover and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great First-Work of the Church, Missions The author of this little volume has given us a great truth in its title - "The Great First-Work of the Church Is Missions." While most of us may not need anything further to convince us of this truth, we are all much in need of that more important thing - the dynamic of conviction that expresses this truth in the reality of service. If these chapters help to that end in any one of us, they will be fully worth while. The writer of this book needs no introduction in his own denomination. While his twenty-eight years in the mission work of western India; the faith and courage that led him to be the first to answer the call to pagan lands in the Church of the Brethren; his desire to maintain habits of study and investigation, which was expressed in his receiving a degree from Northwestern University, where he and his son Emmert spent a year in the graduate school, easily entitle W. B. Stover to honor and titles that would be the envy of most of us, yet he is best known and happiest as Bro. Stover, a friend of men, and a servant of the Lord. In these few chapters he has written well. He has called our attention to the more important things in missions - the things which he has learned and exemplified in his successful missionary service.

Download or read book Renovated written by Jim Wilder and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2020-04-21 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity has tended to focus on right beliefs and right choices as the keys for personal growth. But biblical evidence and modern brain science show that our character is shaped more by whom we love than what we believe. Through conversations he had with Dallas Willard at the Heart & Soul Conference shortly before Dallas's death, Jim Wilder shows how we can train our brains to relate to God based on joyful, mutual attachment--which leads to emotional and spiritual maturity as our identity and character are formed by our relationship with God.

Download or read book The Destiny of Man Classic Reprint written by William Erwin and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Destiny of Man This work on the destiny of man would probably never have been written had there been a possibility of discussing the question of man's immortality through the religious press. Every attempt at this by the author has been denied. Several articles have been prepared, and their publication has been refused. The integrity of his belief not being able to shield him from the imputation of heterodoxy, and finding no opportunity to justify his theory, and ever laboring under the disadvantage of distrust, from the idea of not being entirely orthodox - hence has arisen the necessity for this publication. It should be expressly understood by all that the honor of God, the good of man, and the welfare of the church of Christ, have induced the author to elaborate this idea of non-immortality in sin. That man is a candidate for immortality, that he is not and can not be immortal until the resurrection, and then can only be immortal in Christ, the author is satisfied every reader, who is dispossessed of prejudice, will believe, after he has carefully and thoroughly perused this treatise.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Double Witness of the Church The circumstances under which this Volume was written, are briefly these. The last winter, it is well known, was a season of strange excitement among the different denominations throughout our land. At such a time - as the best safeguard against this injurious influence - the writer thought it well to deliver to the people of his charge, a course of Lectures, plainly setting forth the distinctive principles of the Church. They were continued through ten successive Sunday evenings; and he had reason to believe that the effect produced was beneficial. The Lectures were originally prepared without the most distant idea of publication. Having, however, been requested by the vestry, as well as by others in whose judgment he is accustomed to rely, to furnish the series for the press, the writer did not feel at liberty to decline. He has, therefore, availed himself of what hours of leisure he could find amidst the engrossing cares of Parish duty, to expand some parts of the course and to add the necessary references. The result of his attempt is seen in this volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
