Download or read book The Resurrection of Our Lord Classic Reprint written by John Dover Wilson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Resurrection of Our Lord The manuscript, here printed for the first time, is a thin folio, measuring 11 x inches, bound in contemporary sheep skin. It is a Resurrection drama, divided into parts or plays' to be performed on different days. Of the entire production only four fragments survive, two belonging to 'the first dayes playe' and two to 'the seconde dayes playe The pagination of these fragments runs: 17 - 28, 37 - 38, 43 - 58, 63 - 66. Thus eight leaves are lost at the beginning, four between pages 28 and 37, two between pages 38 and 43, another two between pages 58 and 6 3, and an unknown quantity at the end, the last remaining leaf being loose. Each page is ruled in black ink, so that the text is enclosed within a rectangular frame, leaving a margin at the top for headline and page number, another at the foot for the catchword, a narrow column on the inside, and a double column on the outside, within which last are generally found stage-directions, Biblical references, and other marginalia. The manuscript is the work of a single scribe, though a few altera tions, indicated in the editorial footnotes, have been made by what are apparently other hands. The handwriting is neat and very legible; but it is clearly that of a copyist, who has found it difficult in many places to follow the sense of his original. This is proved by the presence of several passages which are obviously corrupt, by frequent interlineations, and by the curious use of the query which, though sometimes employed in the normal way and sometimes standing for an exclamation-mark, is more often simply an indication of the scribe's perplexity. The question-mark at the end of the muddle in line 736 is an almost pathetic instance of this. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Resurrection of Jesus Classic Reprint written by Eduard Riggenbach and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Resurrection of Jesus There is scarcely another fact' in the Christian Faith that has caused so much difficulty to the belief of the modern man as that of the Resurrection of Jesus. The advance of science in our days seems to leave no room for miracle, especially for such a miracle as the resurrection of the dead to a new bodily life. And yet the question here is not of a miracle which could be put aside as unhistorical, without essential deduction from the apostolic Gospel. The church has always considered the resurrection of Jesus as a principal part of her message. The apostle Paul occasionally describes Christian saving faith in the words: Thou believest in thine heart that God hath raised Jesus from the dead (rom. 10. 9) and he also says directly: If Christ be not risen then is our preaching vain ye are yet in 3 your Sins. Then they also which are fallen asleep in Christ are perished (1 Cor. 15. I4, 17, In like manner among all other New Testament writers, the resurrec.

Download or read book The Resurrection of Jesus Christ Historically and Logically Viewed Classic Reprint written by Richard W. Dickinson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Resurrection of Jesus Christ Historically and Logically Viewed The following pages are submitted to the public in the hope that they may serve, at least in some degree, to supply a want, which, though seldom expressed, is often felt. The want, here assumed, as the conscious experience of not a few minds, is that of some treatise on the Resurrection of Christ, which, while excluding all that is irrelevant, without omitting anything essential to the fair discussion of the subject, shall, in a brief and convenient form, embody the facts and testimony in the case; and which, in vindicating the credibility of the witnesses, shall rebut the positions, and expose the sophistries of Infidelity. Such a work, it is hoped, will not merely attract the notice of those who have no leisure for investigating the documentary proofs of our holy religion, but will also furnish material for reflection on not a few of the most striking incidents of the Gospels, as well as on some of the most humiliating features of our fallen nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Our Lord's Resurrection The object of the Oxford Library of Practical Theology is to supply some carefully considered teaching on matters of Religion to that large body of devout laymen, who desire instruction, but are not attracted by the learned treatises which appeal to the theologian. One of the needs of the time would seem to be, to trans late the solid theological learning, of which there is no lack, into the vernacular of everyday practical religion; and while steering a course between what is called plain teaching on the one hand and erudition on the other, to supply some sound and readable instruction to those who require it, on the subjects included under the common title The Christian Religion, that they may be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh them a reason of the hope that is in them, with meekness and fear. The Editors, while not holding themselves precluded from suggesting criticisms, have regarded their proper task as that of editing, and accordingly they have not interfered with the responsibility of each writer for his treatment of his own subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Observations on the History and Evidences of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ But as the resurrection's having been fully proved to the apostles, though absolutely necessary, yet is not of itself sufficient to authorize at this time and establish the faith of a Christian, I imagined, that what I had alreadywritten would be imperfect, at least, if not al together useless, unless I added some arguments and reasons'i had'to offer, to 'induce us, who live at the distance of seventeen hundred years from the date of that miraculous event, 'to believe that Christ is risen from the dead. These reasons, therefore, I have thought proper to subjoin under two heads, viz thetestimony of the chosen Witnesses of the Resurrection recorded in-tlie Scriptures, and the Existence of the Christian Religion.

Download or read book The Place of the Resurrection Appearances of Jesus Classic Reprint written by William Park Armstrong and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Place of the Resurrection Appearances of Jesus Christ, for the whole argument of St. Paul is based on the fact that there was a general consent on that subject. It has sometimes been thought that this implies that the Corinthians had no h0pe of any future life be yond death. But this view is an unjustified conclusion from 1 Cor. Xv. 17-19. St. Paul is here arguing that there must be a resurrection, because a future life is impossible without one, and that the hope of the Chris tian to share in the life of Christ necessitates that he should rise from the dead just as Christ did. Moreover, the idea that there was no future life is as wholly foreign to the point of view of the Mystery Religions of the Corinthian world, as it was to that of Jewish theology. The ques tion was not whether there would be a future life, but whether a future life must be attained by means of a resurrection, and St. Paul's argument is that in the first place the past resurrection of Christ is positive evidence for the future resurrection of Christians, and in the second place that the conception of a resurrection is central and essential in Christianity, which offers no hope of a future life for the dead apart from a resur rection. Cf. Also Lake's estimate of the significance to be attached to the elements of Christian faith held in common by Paul and his readers and therefore presupposed in his Epistles, ibid., pp. 115, 132 f., 233 n., 277, 424, 437, and Exp. 1909, i, p. 506.

Download or read book The Christ of the Forty Days written by A.B. Simpson and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2010-08-02 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, The Christ of the Forty Days, A.B. Simpson tells of the overwhelming experiences of the risen Christ. A.B. Simpson scripturally tells of the 40 days between Christ's resurrection and ascension, His appearance many times to His disciples, His teaching them about the nature of discipleship and His own divine nature and power they need to "go into all the world." In The Christ of the 40 Days, it is with this same power, that A.B. Simpson affirms is no less needed today to accomplish God's work today in all the world. The Christ of the Forty Days is a triumphant book of overpowering declaration and peace. He wins, He has defeated the aggressor, and Christ has been declared the victor! Christ is not an untouchable unapproachable Christ but is the opposite, knowing that we need Him and allows Himself to be a truly understanding Christ. He is "able to 'sympathize with our weaknesses' and ready to help us in our times of need." But he will also teach us during these times of trials and stress. He even took the opportunity to challenge his disciples during this most stressful time in their lives to "go into all the world and preach the gospel," sending them a clear message of that their real work had just started. The Christ of the Forty Days was originally published in 1883.

This book was released on 2017-11-14 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Revelation of the Risen Lord At the same time a patient endeavour to enter into the meaning of the several recorded incidents brings out the absolute originality and the prevailing power Of the Truth which they combine to make known. The idea Of the Resur rection was a new thing; and it is seen to pro duce the effects of a new force. The Fact Of the Resurrection as thus set before us explains the Life Of the Church; and the Fact itself, or the belief in the Fact, is not explicable by any antecedent conditions apart from its truth. A careful study Of the evan gelio records shews that there were no elements present in the society of the believers to produce such an idea as they slowly realised. There was no enthusiastic hope to create visions; still less to create visions which involved the sacrifice Of cherished expectations. Everywhere it appears that a new thought is kindled by the successive manifestations Of the Lord, for which earlier be lief Offered a sufficient foundation but no more. In this connexion the remarkable limitation Of the manifestations Of the Risen Lord must be noticed. When'the lesson of the new Life wasonce given it was not repeated. The revelation to St Paul, the revelation of 'jesus' as 'the Son Of God', completes the whole series. The visions Of St Stephen and St John were Of a different order.
