Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reserve Question, or a Word for the Church, by One of Its Clergy The writer of the following pages Ought perhaps to apologize for the warlike turn which has been given to some few parts of his address. But while some of the terms are military and the imagery occasionally assumes a martial air, he must beg that his readers will not misunderstand him. For the warfare of which he speaks and the unflinching contest to which he in vites the Clergy of his Church, is not that of sanguinary encounter, or of fierce and malignant feeling; but that of strenuous and persevering exertion for the undisturbed possession of their important rights and privileges. He hopes he is no bigot. He is not aware that he feels the least enmity against any sect or denomination in the Province: nor is he disposed to assert with arro gancy of assumption that iris is the only Church to the exclusion of all others. He claims indeed the right of preference: and strong are the convictions which have led to and which cause him still to cherish this his preference. But he still concedes to others the right of choice. And were he and his Church only left to themselves as he would leave others - to proceed quietly and undisturbedly in the peaceful discharge of their respective duties, - not a line on the present subject would ever have been sent by him to the press. But when such hosts of assailants have gathered around his revered and hon ored Church and when they rapaciously, and as it seems to him, iniquitous ly talk of severing from her, or altogether alienating her exclusive endowments and when in order more fully to secure their aim, they do not scruple either ignorantly or maliciously, to malign her - under such circumstances, be felt it his bounden duty to speak out; and while he has endeavoured to do this with manly christian courage, he is not conscious of having cherished against any one, the least bitterness of feeling.

Book excerpt: The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage

Download or read book The Scottish Church Question Classic Reprint written by Adolphus Sydow and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Scottish Church Question IN offering the following pages to the public, the writer would preface them with only a few words. The interest he takes in the important question, which he is about to examine, is a universal Protestant one. He considers that the relation between Church and State, which has arisen out of the Reformation in the various countries in which the Reformed Church is established, is still far from satisfying the claims which the Church of Christ on earth is bound by the Word of God to assert for her unfettered efficacy in providing for the spiritual welfare of the souls intrusted to her. He considers these claims to be as widely different from those of the Church of Rome as the headship of Christ himself over his Catholic spiritual kingdom is different from that of his supposed Vicar on earth. On this account they have, on the one hand, the higher authority and purer ends, and, on the other, they do not, if rightly understood, encroach upon the due powers and privileges which are given by God to the civil magistrate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1907 edition. Excerpt: ... boys who pretended to listen to her every Sunday, took her problem to her pastor. It was as a result of this conference that a proposition was made to the school to award a deportment banner each Sunday to the class which--in the judgment of the officers--most deserved it. The proposition was enthusiastically endorsed. The class of troublesome boys received the award on the second Sunday. And, ever since, the teacher has had an orderly class. The writer once heard a pastor tell of messages of a different character given to him by some of his teachers. "Before nearly every communion service," he said, "I can expect one, two, three, or more, teachers, to come to me saying, ' I wish you would speak to M--in my class. I think he has about decided to unite with, the church.' Or, 'J--has given his heart to Christ, and he has told me he wishes to be baptized Sunday.' Maybe no word will be spoken beforehand, and I will know nothing until there is a knock at the door of the sessionroom. I open, and find a teacher waiting with a boy or a girl, a young man or a young woman, who, I am informed, wishes to make arrangements to become a church member. At one communion, not long ago, half of those received came in just this way. I tell you, it made my heart glad." But teachers are not apt to be thus eager to bring their scholars into the church if they are not on cordial terms with the pastor. Some pastors make it a habit to write letters to the teachers. Such letters may be written when--for instance--there is a death in the family; an illness severe enough to keep from Sundayschool; a bit of good-fortune; a season of special hardship in business; a birthday; a return to the city after absence. The occasions are numerous which will...
