Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spirit of a Disciple "Be not ye called Rabbi: for one, is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren - Matthew 23:8 These words come from a chapter of contrasts; a chapter which shows the difference between profession and confession, between a gospel of formalism and a gospel of faith. This chapter reveals more passion than any other address of Jesus. His feeling is so intense that it expresses itself in vituperation. He who charges his disciples to call no man fool, calls the Pharisees "hypocrites, "fools," blind, serpents, vipers, and the damned of hell." Such terms as these, in a calm nature like that of Jesus, signify unspeakable intensity of passion. The reason is evident. He is dealing with his gospels greatest enemy. This enemy was not the lust of the harlot; or the ignorance of the multitude, or the carnal weaknesses of sinful flesh. He was very tender in dealing with all these. They responded to treatment. But the self-satisfaction, the spiritual hardness, the pride of intellect, the flinty and unsympathetic spirit of the statute-bound Pharisee would not respond to treatment. It never has and it rarely will. It is dry rot and leaves the soul unfertile in spite of the sunshine of divine love and the rain of divine mercy.

Download or read book The Spirit in the New Testament Classic Reprint written by Ernest Findlay Scott and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spirit in the New Testament NO doctrine has proved so fruitful in modern Christianity as that of the Spirit. During the last century, and more especially in our own generation, the social order has undergone profound changes; our knowledge of nature and of the process of human development has been immensely widened; the documents of the faith have been subjected to critical inquiry, with the result that many of the old assumptions have given way. If our religion has been able to maintain itself under the altered conditions this has been chiefly due to the doctrine of the Spirit which it has inherited from the early church. The disciples believed that along with his message Jesus had imparted the revealing and life-giving Spirit. His Gospel was not bound to a fixed tradition but was capable of endless growth and self-renewal. It could take into itself new elements, and keep pace with the world's movement, and appeal with a fresh meaning to every age. This great conception was long obscured under the various authoritative creeds, but is now finding its rightful place. Teachers of every school are guided by it more and more in their interpretation of the Christian message.

Download or read book The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved written by Theodore Dwight Woolsey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Disciple Whom Jesus Loved: With Some Remarks on the Passages Where These Words Are Used Here, however, some one may ask whether, by using this title, he is not placing himself above the other disciples, as held in higher regard than the rest of the twelve. The answer which can fairly be made to this question is that while Jesus loved him with a special and tender love, it does not appear that this title was given him until after the resur rection; and indeed perhaps not until years after that event, and even When a number of the old apostles may have been called to be with Christ. The title, again, must have been affixed to him by others who had heard of the especial regard in which Jesus held him. If this gospel was the latest of the four in its publication, as can scarcely admit of a doubt, it might disclose recollections which at an earlier period would not per haps have been given to the world.

Download or read book Spiritual Discipleship written by J. Oswald Sanders and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2017-07-04 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Take time and trouble to keep yourself spiritually fit.” — 1 Tim. 4:7, J. B. Phillips Translation As J. Oswald Sanders points out, true discipleship is more than intellectual assent to a belief in Christ; it involves the whole person and lifestyle. True disciples pursue their Master. They know that God is watching over their faith, but they also take Scripture’s command seriously: “work out your own salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you.” They take pains, by His power, to look more and more like Jesus. This book will help you to be such a disciple. It examines Jesus’ teaching on what it means to follow Him, helping you become the kind of Christian Jesus wants you to be—not one devised by man or even other Christians. You’ll learn: The profile of an ideal disciple Conditions for discipleship The tests that disciples endure How disciples pray and grow The posture and practices of a disciple And more For anyone who wants to be not just a believer in Christ, but an imitator of Him, this book is a treasured resource. Includes questions for reflection, ideal for both individual and group study.

Download or read book A Disciple s Heart Companion Reader written by Justin LaRosa and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2015-02-03 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discipleship in the Methodist tradition affirms that there is always more work for God to do in the human heart. A Disciple's Heart attempts to reclaim and, in a sense, reinterpret for today John Wesley’s understanding of this transformation of the heart, which he called “Christian perfection,” with the goal of equipping participants to continue to grow into the likeness of God’s love in Christ. Designed to be used in a small group and, if desired, a congregation-wide emphasis, the Companion Reader, designed for both group members and leaders, provides background and deeper understanding of each week’s theme from a distinctly Wesleyan perspective.
Download or read book What the Spirit Saith to the Churches Classic Reprint written by James Norman King and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What the Spirit Saith to the Churches It is in the spirit of humility and much uncertainty that this book is allowed to go for publication. I have a full consciousness of the weakness with which the subject has been handled, and a whole-hearted concern for what it may mean to the reader. There has been no attempt to startle the world by profoundness of thought, or to cover up the lack of such profoundness with flowery language and beautiful phraseology. Rather in plainness and simplicity of speech, I have sought to express truths that are well known, with the hope that they might be made more practical and might leave a deeper impression. The reader who is seeking the unusual, as well as the one who is searching for a literary treat, will be disappointed. The general theme is the product of a growing realization of the value of the Christian Church. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
