Book The Theology of Modern Literature  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Theology of Modern Literature Classic Reprint written by Samuel Law Wilson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theology of Modern Literature The accomplished authoress of Isabel Carnaby very truly remarks, that every writer is an evangelist of some sort. The gospel of which some of our outstand ing writers of the present day are the evangelists, the truths or errors, as the case may be, of which they are the proclaimers and dispensers, are in these pages indicated and commented on. The writer desires it to be understood that the word theology throughout this volume is used in an elastic and accommodating sense, embracing not only what is usually understood by theology proper, but also the elements of morality, and religious teaching in general. In conclusion, the writer has only to express his sense of inadequacy and shortcoming in the execution of his design. He is as deeply sensible as the most exact ing of his critics can be that his abilities have not always matched the magnitude and importance of his theme. His attempt has only been to say some things which others could have said far more ably, but which as yet they have refrained from saying. If he has failed, his failure may at least be attended with the compensation that it may perhaps bring others into the field who will succeed. If the book shall prove the precursor of something more satisfactory than itself, the author will not grudge the time and labour he has expended on it. But whatever its imperfections, and whatever reception may be accorded it, it is now sent forth in the service of Him who accepteth a man accord ing to what he hath, and not according to what he hath not.

Book The Failure of Theology in Modern Literature  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Failure of Theology in Modern Literature Classic Reprint written by John Killinger and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-02-09 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Failure of Theology in Modern Literature The title OF this book IS shamelessly negative. IT had its origin on an occasion when I heard Paul Scherer say that every Christian doc trine has its secular counterpart. I wondered if that is true of literature. Could such a statement be documented by the great literary works of our time? This book is my answer. Begun on a negative bias, it never overcame it. At least, not completely. In a way, I am glad it did not, for otherwise it would have ended by coming at the subject by the same route traveled by so many authors writing on the subject of theology and literature. This, dear reader, will at least be different. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Theology This book has been undertaken at the request of number of my friends who feel that recent criticisms of what has come to be called New Theology ought to be dealt with in some comprehensive and systematic way. With this suggestion my own judgment concurs, but only so far as my own pulpit teaching is concerned. I cannot pretend to speak for anyone else, and therefore this monograph must not be understood as an authoritative exposition of the views held and expounded by other preachers who may be in sympathy with the New Theology. From its very nature, as I hope the following pages will show, the New Theology cannot be a creed, but its adherents have a common stand point. My only reason for calling this book by that title is that a considerable section of the public at present persists in regarding me as in a special way the exponent of it; indeed from the correspondence which has been proceeding in the press it is evident that many people credit me with having invented both the name and the thing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Continuity of Christian, Thought: A Study of Modern, Theology in the Light, of Its History This treatise owes its shape to the circumstance of its having been written as a course of lectures which were delivered in Philadelphia on the foun dation of the late John Bohlen. The lectures be ing six in number required what may seem a some what artificial division of the subject-matter. But the grouping of topics, which I was in consequence constrained to make, will not, I think, be found an unnatural one. The lectures have been as carefully revised as my engagements would allow; they are published substantially as they were spoken, with the exception of several portions omitted in the delivery for the sake of brevity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tendencies of Modern Theology The titles of the papers indicate a certain unity of subject. They indicate also that the questions dis cussed are living questions to-day and fundamental to Christian faith. The writer is not so presumptuous as to suppose that he has solved the high problems under discussion. To make some contribution to the solution is the utmost he can hope to do. A few repetitions occur in one or two of the papers; but as they are found in connection with new points of view, he did not think it well to withhold the papers on that account. The criticism is directed against theories. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Place of Christ in Modern Theology  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Place of Christ in Modern Theology Classic Reprint written by A. M. Fairbairn and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Place of Christ in Modern Theology Treatises in Systematic Theology are not so common as they once were, nor are they so easy either to write or to read. Criticism has become so much a mental habit and has changed so many things that we find it hard to be patient with any process that is not critical, or to agree with any principle or method that professes to be constructive. Construction, indeed, without criticism is sure to be invalid; but the criticism which does not either end in construction or make it more possible, is quite as surely without any scientific character or function. Hence, though modern criticism, philosophical, literary, and historical, has made systematic treatises of the old order impossible, it has only made a new endeavour at construction the more necessary. This book does not profess or claim to be a system of theology, but it is an attempt at formulating the fundamental or material conception of such a system; or, in other words, it is an endeavour through a Christian doctrine of God at a sketch of the first lines of a Christian Theology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Criticism; Or the New Theology: The Battle of the Critics OF late years many eminent Writers have so ques tioned the accuracy of the literal sense of Scripture, upon critical and scientific grounds, as to weaken the faith of many in its divine authority, and to lead them to view a large portion thereof as a Jewish, and therefore now a bygone, superstition. The necessity for this criticism has been thus urged upon us.' It is certain, says Dr. Colenso, that in this age of ours every part of the New Testament as well as the Old, will be subject to a close and searching criticism. We cannot, if we would, escape this trial of our faith for God, our God and Father, has called us to it. As plainly as in the days of the Reformation men were called to brace up their minds for a mighty struggle between the powers of light and the powers of darkness, so surely, ' if we read the signs of the times, the like struggle is coming now, nay, rather, is come upon us.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Theology of Civilization IN 1897 I published a little book, The Coming People, which received a very kindly and appreciative welcome from many readers. I tried to interpret the movements of modern life, in the only way in which they seem capable of an intelligible under standing, into the terms Of a divine universe. AS one who had begun his thinking as a sceptic and without a hopeful tempera ment, I boldly avowed my most serious and persistent conviction that the world is good and not bad, that life is abundantly worth living, that man is marching the way of a great and beautiful destiny.
