Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kingdom of God, or Reign of Heaven Among Men The law in hermeneutics The Unity of Truth has been fully recognised and it is the greatest joy to see all Scripture, whether in the Old or New Testament, that bears upon this theme brought into complete harmony. Every verse has been given its most obvious meaning; for most certainly the Lord knows how to express truth in the clearest way and He means what He says, and says exactly what He desired to say; and all twisting or strain ing of the Scriptures is insulting to God. Beware of the commentator who magnifies obscure truths, putting them in a place of great promlnence. God's light is not put under a bushel waiting for some visionary to lift it Off. AS it is absolutely necessary for a surveyor to find first his beginning corner before he runs his lines, so it is just as essential for a student to find the beginning of God's kingdom, that John and Jesus proclaimed to be at hand, before he can understand the purpose, nature or place of the kingdom of God in the earth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kingdom of Heaven: Its Significance and Scope Qwere to be followed by a fifth, as we read in verse xliv: And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever. This Kingdom is the Messianic Kingdom which shall be set up on the earth at the return of God's Son to it. Proof of our last assertion is furnished by Dan. Vii:13, 14, I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of Man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the ancient of days, and they brought Him near before Him. And there was given Him dominion, and glory, and a Kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages, should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and Hi; Kingdom that which shall not be destroyed. It was to this same Kingdom that the angel referred when he said to Mary, And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, shalt call His Name jesus. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God shall give unto Him the throne of His father David. And He shall reign over the House of Jacob forever; and of Hir. Kingdom there shall be no end (luke i:31 This Kingdom will have the Lord Jesus Christ for its sovereign (isa. Ix:6, Jerusa lem will be its earthly center (is. Ii:3), the House of Jacob will be its immediate subjects (luke i233), though the whole earth and its inhabi tants will be subject to its rule (zech. Xiv:16).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian Doctrine of God That the kingdom of God or of heaven proclaimed by Jesus is a fellowship of men, appears not only from the natural import of the word kingdom, but from such expressions as, least in the kingdom, great in the kingdom (matt. V. 19, xviii. Of such is the kingdom, he shall in no wise enter therein (mark x. I4, I etc. That in it the highest morality is obeyed, is clear from the Sermon on the Mount (matt. V. - vii. Luke Vi. 20 - 42) and the whole tenor of our Lord's teaching; and that it is done as the will of God, appears from the phrase kingdom, which often means reign, of its being joined in the Lord's Prayer with the doing of His will (matt. Vi. And from the many parables in which God is represented as a King, a Master, a Householder, a Shepherd, a Father, a Judge (matt. Xx. 1, xxii. 2, XXV. I4, 34; Luke xv. 4, II, xvii. 7, Finally, it is plain that it includes the highest blessedness since it is to be sought as the chief good (matt.

Download or read book The Kingdom of God Classic Reprint written by Ian Maclaren and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kingdom of God When the forerunner's voice was stifled in the dungeon of Herod, Jesus caught up his word and preached the Utopia of John with a wider vision and sweeter note. The hereditary dream of the Jew passed through the soul of Jesus and was transformed. The local widened into the univer sal; the material was raised to the spiritual. A Jewish state with Jerusalem for its capital, and a greater David for its king, changed at the touch of Jesus into a moral kingdom whose throne should be in the heart and its borders coterminous with the race. The largeness of Jesus' mind is its glory and its misfortune. The magnificent conception was refused by His countrymen because their God was a national Deity; it has been too often re duced by His disciples because they have no hori zon. They have been apt to think that Christian ity is an extremely clever scheme by which a lim ited number of souls will secure Heaven - a rocket apparatus for a shipwrecked crew. Perhaps there fore outside people should be excused for speaking of Christianity as a system of the higher selfish ness, because they have some grounds for their misunderstanding. Every one ought to read Jesus' own words and he'would find that Jesus did not live and die to afford select Pharisees an immunity from the burden of their fellow men, but to found a Kingdom that would be the salvation of the world.

Download or read book The Kingdom of Heaven Classic Reprint written by H. Maldwyn Hughes and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-18 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kingdom of Heaven The aim of this volume is practical. Every preacher and teacher has to face the question - What is the Gospel? Jesus began His ministry by proclaiming the advent of the Kingdom of Heaven. It is, therefore, a matter of paramount importance to ascertain the significance of the Kingdom in His teaching. This has been one of the main subjects of theological inquiry during recent years. There are still wide divergencies of interpretation, but there is a growing recognition that neither the 'evolutionary' nor the 'catastrophic' elements in our Lord's teaching can be explained away, if justice is done to the records. I have striven, in these pages, to present both aspects impartially, and to show how they are related to one another. The subject is approached in the light of the critical study of the Gospels, but with a desire to avoid the subjectivity which is so often the bane of the critical method. A theme on which so much has been written offers little scope for originality. I venture, however, to cherish the hope that the presentation of the material may help some of those who are engaged in the practical work of preaching and teaching to a better understanding of the central message of our Lord's ministry. I have to express my obligations to my friend, Rev. Sydney Cave, D.D., Principal of Cheshunt College, who has read most of the manuscript and has made valuable suggestions, and to my wife, who has assisted in reading the proofs and in preparing the index.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kingdom and Reign of the Messiah: His Subjects, Precepts, and Government; With Preliminary Remarks on the Bible, Its Author, Dispensations, and Other Kingdoms We have not taken our pen at this time to apologize for what we have here written, but because we have not been able to write and present it to the reader in a manner more satisfactory to ourself. Seven or eight years ago we took the Bible with the single object of collating a Book of Precepts for the use of man. all men, everywhere, in every condition and circumstance of life. We had not proceeded far before our plan was enlarged, so as to comprehend every subject treated of in that wonderful book: and it was not until we had collated and arranged, under appropriate heads, about 16,000 verses of the Old and New Testaments, that we met with similar works of other men, which, to a good degree, seemed to meet the exigency demanded, except in regard to the subject of "The Great Law Book," herein presented; "The Words op Christ," just published, "The Great Statute Book: Divine Precepts and Judgments, for the Government of Man, with Revealed Commentaries upon them," which is being prepared. When commencing this Great Work we contemplated only one volume; but, in our estimation, it has arisen to infinite upon infinite, infinite upon infinite. Instead of exhausting the subjects, or saying half we wished to say, not half we have written, have we yet had time or strength to present, for public inspection. Even in this volume, in many cases, thoughts have been presented as given, (not by superhuman revelation, but in the way of God's appointment: "if any man lack wisdom let him ask of God, who giveth to all men liberally and upbraideth not,") and often repeated, from want of health, and competent help to condense and arrange them more systematically. But if the work possesses no other merit, it unquestionably has this, thought upon thought, and not unfrequently new, it is said, and line upon line, imitating in this particular the sacred writers of our Bible. With pen and paper before us, to consider these important and sublime subjects; and, when on our knees we sought from God the needful aid, we pledged him, if He would give us his aid and guide our pen, it should follow his directions wherever it might lead us. But little did we think of writing such a book as the present one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kingdom of Heaven: A Revelation N sending forth his disciples to proclaim the good tidings that the kingdom of heaven is at hand, anticipating the probable rejection of their testimony, Jesus said, Nevertheless be ye sure of this, the Kingdom of God is come nigh. Long before his disciples were able to discern the true spiritual significance of that kingdom, to them it was 'given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, for they were witnesses of their outward manifestation long before they were spiritually pre pared to understand, or enter into, that state of blessedness through purity of heart and faith in God. No argument accompanied their announcement of the glad tidings, they simply proclaimed the good news; the attestation of its truth was independent of their own minds.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What Is the Kingdom of Heaven? I hope that in this book I may not seen to express a greater hostility to Christian orthodoxy than I feel. As I owe all that I most firmly believe to that orthodoxy, I should be ungrateful if I spoke of it with enmity or contempt. But orthodoxy can be living only if it is ready to confess that it may have made mistakes even on the most vital points. The mistake which I believe it has made, and which I try to point out in this book, is really one of emphasis. It would be easy to quote passages from Christian writers, all through the ages, against my contention that Christ's doctrine of the Kingdom of Heaven has been ignored. But these passages would not prove that any church has laid that emphasis on the doctrine which Christ Himself laid on it, or that there has been a sustained effort to understand the doctrine or to state it clearly and fully. The doctrine is not the centre of Christian thought and teaching; and in this book I contend that it ought to be.
