Book The Universalist Quarterly

Download or read book The Universalist Quarterly written by Thomas B. Thayer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universalist Quarterly: January, 1865 Three years ago, after the rebellion was successfully set in motion, thoughtful men dreaded the event of a new election. They were fearful that by great exertions on the part of the traitorous faction South, by the active sympathy which was accorded to the rebellion in Europe, by the indirect aid and comfort which it was receiving from its former political allies North, the war might last during the whole Of Mr. Lincoln's first term of Office. This would bring upon us the excitement of a presidential election in the midst of a civil war. Would not this put our government to the test beyond all precedent Might it not imperil everything? With such anticipations, the event has been awaited by the friends and foes of our gov ernment, both at home and abroad. The eyes of all Europe have been upon us. The event came. It came With much excitement. But the excitement was too deep and earnest to be marked by the characteristics Of other and former presi dential campaigns. It called out an array Of talent, never be fore equalled in the history of any presidential contest. Some Of the speeches Of the recent campaign will live forever, and will be read in future as we read the orations of Demosthenes and Cicero. TO the joy of our friends and the chagrin Of our foes abroad, the election passed Off as quietly as any ever known in the history Of our country. Surely, we have reason to thank God, that the ship of State has survived the shock, and that the portion Of the crew which mutinied against our captain is in a fair way to be brought to such terms as never to try the experiment Of revolt again. To us, looking at the probable consequences Of this event upon the future Of the world, it seems as though once again as of yore, the morning stars might sing together and all the sons of God might shout for joy!

This book was released on 2017-11-03 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universalist Quarterly and General Review, 1864, Vol. 1 Wrong has its conditions and methods as well as Right. It exists in its own atmosphere, obeys its own necessities and is ruled by its own instincts. And, so, when a giant barbar ism, its offspring and representative, found itself encircled by an advanced and still advancing Christian society, it could meet the exigency of its situation only in the spirit and by the meth ods of its own nature. Slavery in the United States and in the nineteenth century, pressed on all sides by the accumulat ing forces of an expanding and noble civilization, menaced, as it could but feel, by the peaceful but damaging, conquests which the energies of an enlightened free society were con stantly making, could deal with the circumstances which beset it, only in its own ways, and by its own instrumentalities. It could not be influenced by a wisdom higher than it knew, and from the recognition of which it was excluded by the essen tial conditions of its existence. Having its origin in falsehood, injustice and violence, it felt that it could expand and be strengthened, indeed that it could hold its own, only by such measures as these postulated; that in wrong alone it must live or bear no life. To expect from it a policy of truth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universalist Quarterly and General Review, 1851, Vol. 8 Of course, in looking at history, and in attempting to determine the work and aim of our own age, we are to look, as Christians, from the introduction of the gospel, as a stand-point, and in the light of the gospel, as a test. The birth of the Saviour is the starting point of modern history. Really, as well as chronologically, it is the di vision-line of widely different epochs, the axis of the world's experience. The eighteen and a half centuries that have elapsed since the birth of Jesus, are crowded with singular events and wonderful contrasts, and present that most interesting of problems that can engage the attention of a historical student - the decay of one form of society, and the growthof a new type of civilization. It is not a very difficult task to mark off the principal sub-epochs in which the whole period may be most naturally divided, and thus obtain a general sketch of modern history, down to the commencement of our century.

This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universalist Quarterly and General Review, 1847, Vol. 4 IT is a very interesting and instructive fact, that, among those who in every age have been distinguished for their scientific and literary attainments, appear the names of men who, during their whole lives, were compelled to contend with obstacles which to common minds seem utterly impossible to be overcome. But of all the disadvantages to which a human being can ever be subjected in the pursuit of knowledge, the privation of one or more of the senses, must be admitted as the most appalling. For the senses are the avenues by which the mind obtains its knowledge of the material world; and it would seem that when one of these is rendered useless, the mind could at most be but imperfectly developed. And yet, if history is to be credited, there have been in almost every age blind men, (we mention blind men, because sight is regarded as the most important of the senses, ) whose misfortune has only served to stimulate them to greater exertions in the acquisition of knowledge. All that we really know of the greatest poet the world has ever produced, is, that he was a blind man; and the.

This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 644 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universalist Quarterly and General Review, 1884, Vol. 21 Pbilosophebs of all schools have practically agreed upon one fundamental fact as the basis of metaphysical speculation - the existence of a First Cause. However much theories may have diflered 111 regard to ma essence, the fact of a First Cause, 111 some form or' othéi', has been scarcely questioned. Only' 111 the Positivism of Cpmt'e 66 we find any exception. Here the idea of law replaced the idea 01 cause.b11t such a system can hardly be called' a p. Plosophy. It is rather a plea for the scientific method. It 1gnores any question as to the origin of the laws which science discovers. Yet at best Positivism was shortlived and had few followers, and even Spencerian Agnosticism diverges from it at this point. We cannot think at all about the impressions which the external world produces 011 us, without thinking of them as caused, and we cannot carry out our inquiry concerning their causa tion without inevitably committing ourselves to the hypothesis of a First Cause (first Principles, p.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universalist Quarterly and General Review, 1881, Vol. 18 From thence she was led to a golden palace standing on a silver mountain. From thence she saw a golden mount ain, whereon the Royal Being, that should be a Buddha, marched in the form of a white elephant. He came to the foot of the mountain of Silver, and passed round to its north ern side. In his trunk he held a lotus flower. Havmg ascended the mountain he trmn ted loudly, and entered the golden palace. Thrice he mare red around the couch, and at the end of the third circuit. He appeared to enter her right side and pass into her womb. Then the earth trembled. The universe trembled and quaked. The blind saw. The deaf heard. The home neighed with delight. All pain ceased. The air was filled with flowers. The elephants trumpeted their joy. The rivers stayed their current. The whole sky was dotted with five kinds of lotuses. And there was a mighty sound of music, spontaneously rising from the instru ments of the angels. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-01-07 with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universalist Quarterly and General Review, 1853, Vol. 10 IT may be well to apprize our readers, at the outset, that we do not propose, in the article before us, to inquire into what is distinctively called the ultimate, or final, con dition of men. With respect to this, it is enough for the present occasion to say, that we believe the New Testa ment teaches, expressly as well as by implication from its general principles, that all things will eventually be rec onciled to God through Jesus Christ; that he who was sent to be a ransom for all, and the Saviour of the world, will accomplish the object, before he shall de liver up the kingdom to the Father. To us, this truth appears to be so inwoven in the gospel that we cannot take it away without rending the whole texture into fragments. Nor can we conceive of hardly any particular doctrine more important in its relations to other points of Christi unity, or more interesting to mankind when considered in itself; as we have endeavored to show in a former num ber of our publication.l But, in the present article, we shall take this doctrine, and this view of the subject, for granted, since we suppose that the most of our readers already agree with us in the positions. Has it never occurred to them, however, that there still are questions, lying further back, into which people may run, and which affect the value of this doctrine so materi ally as to make it of little import, or of the highest moment, accordingly as they are answered in one way or another All questions that call in doubt the reality of our future existence are plainly of this kind; and so are all questions that involve its character as an object of personal interest to 118.

This book was released on 2017-01-26 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universalist Quarterly and General Review, 1849, Vol. 6 If our remarks are founded in reason, and supported by facts, it will then appear, that the progressive disclo sure of moral truth is a part of the divine order, and con trolled by unchangeable laws. That the mind of man is capable of enlargement; that its perception of truth may acquire clearness and strength by continued exercise; and that we may advance in the knowledge of any subject of our consideration, in proportion as we study it minutely and extensively; these are facts, that few, if any, will feel disposed to deny. They will certainly be admitted in 'all scientific concerns. And we can conceive of no sufficient reason, why religion, or a single truth of religion, should be made an exception to the general laws, whose opera tion is so apparent in all subordinate affairs. Truth, we know, is the same yesterday, to-day, and forever. But the recipients of truth are not always in the same condi tion. Their understandings may be darkened. They may be incapable of receiving more than the mere rudi ments of a doctrine, or a system of faith. But whenever they increase in knowledge, whether it be in common science, or in religious attainments, every new acquisition will depend upon the enlargement of the mind, the free exercise of its powers, and an earnest desire of improve ment. Truth will come to the human spirit, as the want of it is felt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
