Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jesus of History I regard it as a high privilege to be associated with this volume. Many who know and value Mr. Glover's work on The Conflict of Religions in the Early Roman Empire must have wistfully desired to secure from his graphic pen just such a book as is here given to the world. He possesses the rare power of reverently handling familiar truths or facts in such manner as to make them seem to be almost new. There are few gifts more precious than this at a time when our familiarity with the greatest and most sacred of all narratives is a chief hindrance to our ready appreciation of its living power. I believe that no one will read Mr. Glover's chapters, and especially his description of the parable-teaching given by our Lord, without a sense of having been introduced to a whole series of fresh and fruitful thoughts. He has expanded for us with the force, the clearness, and the power of vivid illustration which we have learned to expect from him, the meaning of a sentence in the earlier volume I have alluded to, where he insists that, Jesus of Nazareth does stand in the center of human history, that He has brought God and man into a new relation, that He is the present concern of every one of us and that there is more in Him than we have yet accounted for.

This book was released on 2017-02-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jesus of History, Before the Bar of Historical Criticism In this little book, I have not tried to consort the respectable man on the street;nor academic prejudices, nor professors, nor clergyman with big salaries, who have their own interests to serve. Such people will not change their opinions till the great public moves, and then, they know it all. They knew that the change was sure to come. In the new current of opin ions they will still be found ou the side of rest ect ability. I appeal only to intelligent. Honest and Open minded people. I reproach myself for one thing only - that I did not see the truth. And speak out sooner than I did. If my theories of Religion become re spectable, I may probably have to abandon them from natural instincts. I will then be away of! In unbeat en tracks, searching for new truths. Respectability is the soil upon which hypocrites and cowards grow. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historical Jesus: A Survey of Positions It has been justly remarked that serious risk Of error is set up even by the long-current claim Of naturalist critics to treat the Bible like any other book. Even in their meaning the phrase should have run like any other Sacred Book of antiquity inasmuch as critical tests and methods are called for in the scrutiny Of such books which do not apply in the case of others. But inasmuch, further, as the Christian Sacred Books form a problem by themselves, a kind of scrutiny which in the case of other books of cult-history might substantially reveal all the facts may here easily fail to do so.

This book was released on 2017-11-20 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historical Jesus and the Theological Christ The Addresses which are reproduced with some expansions in this little book, were intended to give to those unacquainted with the details of historical study some insight into the results of modern investiga tion in the Gospel-field, and some knowledge of the process by which the ecclesiastical conception of the person of Jesus Christ was slowly formed. In such brief surveys much was necessarily left unsaid, and the relation of Jesus to our religious experience did not fall within the lecturer's scope.

Download or read book The Historical Jesus of Nazareth Classic Reprint written by Max Schlesinger and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historical Jesus of Nazareth "In a matter so solemn as that of religion, all men whose temporal interests are not involved in existing institutions earnestly desire to find the truth." If this be so, as it surely ought to be, I need no apology for sending out the following pages to do their share in assisting men to find the truth. Ours is prominently a practical age; the discoveries and inventions of every branch of science, no sooner made, are applied to the practical aims of daily life; every new idea is popularized and made the property of the millions. Only theology seems to make an exception. She, once the presiding mistress in the halls of science, is now scarcely recognized as entitled to admission. Yet, the discoveries of theology during the last decades are not less startling and suprising than those made in any other department of science. That they are less known is due partly to the theological bias of society, partly to the lack of popularization - or, rather, to both, for the one can only be eradicated by the other. It is especially the origin of Christianity over which a flood of light has been poured by the exertions of modern scientific theology, and of which a more intimate knowledge must be desirable to every thinking man.

Download or read book The Life of Jesus Christ According to the Gospel History Classic Reprint written by A. J. Maas and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 660 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Jesus Christ According to the Gospel History This "Life of Jesus Christ" is intended for readers who have neither leisure nor opportunity to consult many Commentaries and works on ancient history; henee the Author has endeavored to mark off clearly historical facts and dogmas of faith from human conjecture and pious belief. The text is entirely framed out of the words of the gospels, in such a manner that nothing is omitted and nothing added. With regard to chronology, the harmonies of Tischendorf, Friedlieb, Coleridge. Lohmann, Fillion, Gilmore and Abbott have been consulted. Where the chronological order is doubtful, it has been indicated as such in the notes; in most cases the various arrangements of events as found in other authors, have been added. Whenever different opinions exist regarding the most important historical or doctrinal difficulties of the text, nearly all opinions are briefly mentioned. The more probable explanations are emphasized, while the untenable ones are rejected. In the character and arrangement of its notes, the book follows the gospel harmony of Jansenius Gandavensis, although it does not lav claim to the completeness of this latter work. The nature of the book has made it necessary to collate many commentaries and Lives of Christ. Not to mention the classical commentators on the Gospels, whose interpretations are looked upon as common property, the Author must acknowledge his obligations to the works of Schuster, Reischl, Corluy, Schaff, Milligan, Fillion, Geikie, Farrar, Sepp, Stanley, Fouard and several other writers of recent date. The remarks, it will be observed, are more frequently explanatory than devotional. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Christ of History and of Experience Classic Reprint written by David William Forrest and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christ of History and of Experience During the four years that have elapsed since the publication of this book, the subject of which it treats - the problem raised by the union of the Historical and the Spiritual in Christianity - has come more and more into prominence. Modern critical theories as to the Gospel records are forcing the question to the front on its historical side; and its pressing theological interest, as attested by prevalent Hegelian and Ritschlian tendencies, has received a further illustration in the rise of the school of Religious Symbolism represented by the late Auguste Sabatier. In the discussion of this central problem for Christian faith to-day, perhaps some may find the line taken in these Lectures not unhelpful. It may be affirmed with confidence that no theory will long commend itself which is not primarily founded on a penetrative analysis of the self-consciousness of Jesus. The view adopted in the first Lecture, that our Lord abstained from uniting in prayer with His disciples, has been strongly contested by the late Professor Bruce.
