Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FATHER LOUIS LALLEMANT left behind him an odour of sanctity which still survives amongst us. It is to preserve it and transmit it to posterity that I have undertaken to give to the public his Spiritual Doctrine, together with a short account of his life. I should have fulfilled my object better, had I had access to the documents which were placed in the hands of one of our Fathers of the province of Champagne, who had engaged to write a complete biography of this holy man. The following narrative is supported by the public testimony of all who knew him, and particularly his own disciples. His interior graces, which it was not possible to learn from himself, were observed by certain of his confessors and most intimate friends, as F. Peter MeHant, F. John Bagot, F. Antony Vaher, F. James Grandami j four theologians who, by their eminent virtues and great abilities, were worthy of being admitted to his confidence. His Spiritual Doctrine was carefully compiled by F. John Uigoleu, who was born in 1595, and died in 1658; and who, so far from detracting from the force and unction of the work, rather added thereto. The collection which he made was preserved by another holy man, whom we are bound in gratitude to mention, F. Vincent Huby, under whose influence it was that I undertook the little works to which I devote the small portion of time which my occupations leave at my disposal. I lately discovered among the papers of F. John Joseph Seurin, who was born in 1600, and died on the 21st of April, 1665. a manuscript, in which he had written with his own hand certain pious sentiments of his director, F. Louis Lallemant. As it was no longer possible to insert them each in its appropriate place in the collection of F. Rigoleu, they have been given separately, just as F. Seurin had noted them down. And now, that I may comply with the decrees of Urban VIII. and other Sovereign Pontiffs, I protest that as regards the Life of F. Lallemant I ask from the reader but a human faith; and that in speaking of this Father as a Saint, I in no wise pretend to invest him with a title which it belongs only to the Apostolic See to give to those whom it judges worthy of it.

Book Christian Spirituality in the Catholic Tradition

Download or read book Christian Spirituality in the Catholic Tradition written by Jordan Aumann and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 1985 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history not only serves to acquaint us with the origins and development of Christian spirituality, but, equally importantly in the author's view, projects into our contemporary world the lives and teachings of men and women who have reached a high degree of sanctity through the ages. His study is Catholic in both senses of the word. He has concentrated his attention on the history of spirituality in the Roman Catholic Church; and he has taken a comprehensive view of the full range of forms of that Catholic tradition, including -- so that we can learn from the mistakes of the past -- the heterodox tendencies and movements that have arisen from time to time.

Book The Cambridge Companion to the Jesuits

Download or read book The Cambridge Companion to the Jesuits written by Thomas Worcester and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-03-20 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ignatius of Loyola (1491–1556) obtained papal approval in 1540 for a new international religious order called the Society of Jesus. Until the mid-1700s the 'Jesuits' were active in many parts of Europe and far beyond. Gaining both friends and enemies in response to their work as teachers, scholars, writers, preachers, missionaries and spiritual directors, the Jesuits were formally suppressed by Pope Clement XIV in 1773 and restored by Pope Pius VII in 1814. The Society of Jesus then grew until the 1960s; it has more recently experienced declining membership in Europe and North America, but expansion in other parts of the world. This Companion examines the religious and cultural significance of the Jesuits. The first four sections treat the period prior to the Suppression, while section five examines the Suppression and some of the challenges and opportunities of the restored Society of Jesus up to the present.

Book Inspiration

    Book Details:
  • Author : Gerald O'Collins
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2018
  • ISBN : 0198824181
  • Pages : 237 pages

Download or read book Inspiration written by Gerald O'Collins and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspiration: Towards a Christian Interpretation of Biblical Inspiration anchors its study of inspiration firmly in the Scriptures and examines the inspired nature of the Bible and its inspiring impact. Gerald O'Collins begins by examining classical view of inspiration expounded by Karl Barth and Raymond Collins. He takes up the inspired origin of the Old Testament, where earlier books helped to inspire later books, before moving to the New Testament, which throughout shows the inspiring impact of the inherited Scriptures--both in direct citations and in many echoes. The work then investigates the Bible's inspiring influence on Christian worship, preaching, teaching, the visual arts, literature, and life. After a chapter that clarifies the interrelationship between divine revelation, tradition, and inspiration, two chapters expound ten characteristics of biblical inspiration, with special emphasis on the inspiring quality of the Bible. O'Collins explains a major consequence of inspiration, biblical truth, and the grounds on which the Church 'canonized' the Scriptures. After spelling out three approaches to biblical interpretation (the authorial intention, the role of readers, and the primacy of the text itself), the book ends by setting out ten principles for engaging theologically with the Scriptures. An epilogue highlights two achievements of the book. By carefully distinguishing inspiration from divine revelation and biblical truth, it can deliver readers from false problems. This work also underlines the inspiring effects of the Scriptures as part of the Holy Spirit's work of inspiration.

Book A Companion to Ignatius of Loyola

Download or read book A Companion to Ignatius of Loyola written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Companion to Ignatius of Loyola aims at placing Loyola’s life, his writings, and spirituality in a broader context of important late medieval and early modern movements and processes that have been appreciated too little by historians who explored Ignatius more as the colossal icon of the so-called Counterreformation than as a man influenced by the dramatic and revolutionary period in which he lived. One book will be never able to cover all aspects of such rich and controversial a figure as Ignatius of Loyola but the fifteen chapters of this volume indicate important directions of current scholarship that reassesses the previous scholarship and suggests new angles of studies on this pivotal figure of early modern period. An interview with editor Robert A. Maryks about this Companion is available on YouTube.

Book Impelling Spirit

Download or read book Impelling Spirit written by Joseph F. Conwell and published by Loyola Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Impelling Spirit is a book about Jesuit spirituality as seen in its origins. As such it responds to the challenge of Vatican II that the appropriate renewal of religious life demands a return to the sources of Christian life and the spirit and aims of the founders of an institute. The instrument the author employs is a 1539 document Ignatius and his companions drafted for Pope Paul III as an apostolic letter addressed to themselves; this document - long neglected and largely unknown - clearly reveals how they understood themselves and their way of life. It demonstrates that the spirit and aims of the Society, though radical in 1539, were also deeply rooted in the Christian tradition.
