Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Modern Crisis in Religion When invited by the publishers to furnish a volume for the International Pulpit it was with me a question whether to select twenty or thirty sermons embracing as many diverse topics, or to choose a number closely related to each other and dealing with one great theme of present interest. For reasons that need not be stated here I decided on the latter course. Much has been written of late on the signs of religious decadence. On both sides of the Atlantic fears have been expressed that Christianity has lost for good and all its hold on mankind; and satisfaction, in some quarters, has not been disguised that its final collapse is evidently so near at hand. What the grounds are for these dreary apprehensions and for this singular congratulation are not altogether clear to the mass of the people. All that they really know is that vague statements are current alleging a decline of faith, accompanied by depressing statistical representations and by accounts of failures and disasters. Their information is detached, fragmentary and disconnected, and consequently their inferences are not always safe or legitimate. That there is a crisis in religion, whether the result of premature and unwarranted alarm, or the effect of recent and reliable investigation, must in all candor be conceded.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Thought and the Crisis in Belief Nobody knows so well as I the inadequacy of my equipment for this difficult task; and few can have had better reason to know how its prosecution calls down anathemas alike from defenders of the faith once delivered to the saints - for whom religion has achieved finality and from rationalists who, in their horror of the sympathetic fallacy, cherish the notion that technical research can accomplish a per fect work. These I cannot hope to conciliate, much less to convince. Time, that tries all, must be their teacher. But for such as believe that the estab lishment of Christian truth, rather than its apolo getic defence or contemptuous dismissal, is an important part of the second Reformation imposed upon us by the contemporary course of science and scholarship, I trust I have touched some things worth further reflexion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Present Religious Crisis Like every other literary project or production, this one in particular has had its own inner and individual history. When the author says that he was graduated from Rutgers College, at New Brunswick, n.j., and also from the Peter Hertzog Theological Seminary, connected with the same institution, he has given a sufficient guaranty that his origi nal instruction in divinity was of the most hyper-orthodox description. Nor does he concede that any alumnus of 'either Alma Mater ever went forth who was, to begin with, a.more devout and implicit believer than he was in both the essentials and the non-essentials of the general orthodox theology, and notably that of the Calvinistic order.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Facing the Crisis: A Study in Present Day Social, and Religious Problems There is a crisis in our race relationships. The trouble in India, Egypt and other lands has its roots in racial as well as in national antipathy. There is a new race consciousness observable since the war throughout almost the 'whole of Asia and it is now spreading in Africa.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crises of the Christ The authoritative literature concerning the history of the Lord Jesus Christ is contained within the New Testa ment. He is the supreme subject of the whole library. Every several book gathers its value from its testimony to His person, His teaching, or His work. The perfection Of the whole is created by its unification in Him. The first four of its books chronicle His deeds, and His words, during the brief span of a lifetime, lasting for a generation. The rest Of the book is occupied with the subject of His deeds and His words through all subsequent generations. The book of Acts is the first chapter in that history of the Church, which is the history Of the deeds Of Christ by the Holy Spirit through His people. The epistles contain the teaching of Christ by the Spirit, through chosen men, for the guidance of His Church until His second advent. The last book contains a prophetic vision of the final move ments, which shall firmly establish His reign over the whole earth.

Download or read book The World s Approaching Crisis Classic Reprint written by and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World's Approaching Crisis In this book we are not to endeavor to set forth new doctrines, or new theories, but to speak of unfulfilled phophesies in the light of the Bible at this time of the closing of the sixth age of the world. Nothing so interested the prophets as the f'oreshowing of things to come. Peter tells us that they inquired and searched diligently, searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the snfierings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. Daniels' whole scul was almost drawn out of him by the intensity of his interest, study, fast ing and prayer with regard to what was forc' shown him. But what is the temper of our modern theologians on the subject of prophecy? The common idea is that a man is a little 'be side himself, and departs from proper soberness if he ventures to give any serious attention to unfulfilled prophecy; Though God has been at the pains to tell us much about 'what is yet to come, many would warn us away from it as dangerous ground, and tell us that we 'unwar rantably intrude into the secrets of the Al mighty if we undertake to read it, or entertain6 the world's approaching crisis.
