Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Thought Weak men on both sides have done much harm - the weak religionists by assuming, and the weak scientists by claiming, for guesses and hypotheses the high character and full value of real truth. The guesses of both have collided in the air, and a real battle seemed impending; but it was only guesses which exploded - bubbles, not bombs; and it is never to be for gotten that a professor of religion has just as much right to guess as a professor of science, and the latter no more right nor skill than the former, although he has had more practice.

Download or read book Christian Thought to the Reformation Classic Reprint written by Herbert B. Workman and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Thought to the Reformation Man has no deeper or wider interest than theology; none deeper, for however much he may change, he never loses his love of the many question it covers; and none wider, for under whatever law he may live he never escapes from its spacious shade; nor does he never find that it speaks to him in vain or uses a voice that fails to reach him. Once the present writer was talking with a friend who has equal fame as a statesman and a man of letters, and he said, "Every day I live, Politics, which are affairs of Man and Time, interest me less, while Theology, which is an affair to God and Eternity, interests me more." As with him, so with many, though the many feel that their interest is in theology and not in dogma. Dogma, they know, is but a series of resolutions framed by a council or parliament, which they do not respect any the more because the parliament was composed of ecclesiastically-minded persons; while the theology which so interests them is a discourse touching God, though the Being so named is the God man Conceived as not only related to himself and his world but also as rising ever higher with the notions of the self and the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Science and Christian Thought This work is an inquiry into the present relations of science to Christian thought. At no former period has the subject assumed aspects of deeper interest than now. The last twenty, and especially the last ten, years have been marked by great progress in the chief branches of natural science. A wide field has been surveyed, and a great number of facts have been brought to light, bearing, more or less closely, on revealed truth. Much new and fresh material has been accumulated, of great value to all who take pleasure in seeking out the works of the Lord, and who love to trace innature the goings of Him who is great in his Church, as a God of righteousness, grace, and love. An effort is here made to bring some of this material within the reach of all, and to render it popularly interesting. In doing so, the Author holds himself alone responsible for the accuracy of the statements made and the scientific facts re ferred to.

This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of the History of Christian Thought Since Kant It is impossible to write upon the theme which this book sets itself without using the terms Catholic and Protestant in the conventional sense. The words stand for certain historic magnitudes. It is equally impossible to conceal from our selves how misleading the language often is. The line between that which has been happily called the religion of authority and the religion Of the spirit does not run between Catholic and Protestant. It runs through the middle of many Protestant bodies, through the border only of some, and who will say that the Roman Church knows nothing of this contrast? The sole use of recurrence here to the historic distinction is to emphasise the fact that this distinction stands for less than has commonly been supposed. In a large way the history of Christian thought, from earliest times to the end Of the eighteenth century, presents a very striking unity.

Download or read book Present Day Problems of Christian Thought Classic Reprint written by Randolph H. McKim and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Present-Day Problems of Christian Thought Attempts have been made by a. Certain class of writ em to use the religion of Buddha as a means of weak ening the force of the claim which Jesus of Nazareth makes for Himself, and for the religion of which He is the founder and the head. The argument may be stated thus Jesus claims to be the Light of the World, and to have established a religion which is the absolute religion, before which all other religions must give way, because it is true and they are false; it is super naturally revealed - they are of purely natural origin. But the rellglon of Buddha presents so many resem blances and, parallels to the religion of Christ, - in its ethical code, in its spirit, and in the life of its founder, that the exclusive claims of the latter cannot be main tamed; and every open-minded man must see that both of these great religions are divine revelations, or neither is. But it may be shown, in answer to this, that the alleged points of resemblance between the two reli gions, when closely scrutinized, are in many cases un real, in many others greatly exaggerated, and that the residuum of real likeness is totally insufficient to out weigh the contrasts, which are radical, fundamental.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Thought: Lectures and Papers on Philosophy, Christian Evidence, Biblical Elucidation In this way, from the theological side, faith is made to seem at enmity with reason, wherever religious truth is concerned. In the affairs of common life, Reason may be followed and be trusted Iby the devout and undevout alike. But she is not to gather up an inference, or to trace an analogy, which might tempt her upon forbidden ground; upon ground, that is, which is con sidered as belonging exclusively to Faith. From that sphere Reason would be repelled as an intruder, or, at most, called in to ratify conclusions dictated by Faith.

Download or read book Christian Thought Monthly written by Charles F. Deems and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05-21 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Thought Monthly: August, 1883 I. To this question we answer: Because it is a simple matter of fact that Christianity first forced these truths effectually upon the world's attention and the world's acceptance by means of its supernatural claims and its supernatural history, and caused them to be largely accepted as principles of'the world's philosophy which now commend themselves to man's reason and shine by their own light. In defending itself, Christianity has been forced to defend these truths on grounds of reason against the attacks of subtle and powerful antagonists, and sharply and still more sharply to define them, under the unsparing scrutiny of keen sighted critics. In these attacks and defences these truths have been brought into every conceivable relation to other truths and theories of science and religion. When the discussions have seemed to be purely theological, they have very often, if not more frequently, turned upon some principle of this under lying philosophy. It does not follow because Christianity has inwrought certain 'truths into the world's philosophy, that it has taught them by authority or enforced them by miracle or testimony. This inference is excluded by the undisputed fact that in its use of miracle and testimony Christianity assumes these principles to be accepted and to be necessary in order to give force or significance to m1racle or history, and that again and again it has rested its cause on grounds of phildsophy alone. Much is said in these days of the hindrance which Christian theology has been to science and philosophy. Much might be said of the stimulus and aid which it has given to both in a moral and intellectual way. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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.

Download or read book Christ in Christian Thought written by Edward Grubb and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-15 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christ in Christian Thought: Notes on the Development of the Doctrine of Christ's Person The following chapters, like those contained in the author's former volume, Notes on the Life and Teaching of Jesus appeared originally as monthly instalments of "Study Notes" in the pages of The British Friend, of which he was Editor. The demand for the former volume gives ground for hoping that a good many thoughtful enquirers may welcome this further study of the beliefs in regard to the Person of Christ which were arrived at by early and later Christians. The issue of the book has been delayed for some years, owing to war conditions. In the author's view, the doctrine of the Divinity of Christ, and the further doctrine of the Trinity which it was found to involve, are not truths supernaturally communicated to men, concerning matters that transcend human experience; but are in the true sense of the term theories: that is, ideas reached in the legitimate endeavour to explain and rationalise facts of actual experience, outward and inward. These doctrines were the work of human reason, more or less enlightened by the Spirit of God, reflecting on the facts of what Jesus was and what He had done for the inner lives of men. They were, therefore, in the first instance, the expression not of abstract but of concrete truth. But, when Christianity spread among the Gentiles, the Greek intellect, which loved abstractions, largely lost the basis of vivid experience in which the process had begun; and this is why to us the Christian speculation of the creed-building ages seems so often an arid waste. The greatest service which the modern Critical method has rendered to theology is that it has helped to restore the outlines of the concrete Personality of Jesus, and with it the wonder and the awe which led His followers to question who and what He was. And any Christology that is to satisfy the modern mind will necessarily have to make terms with Science, both physical and historical. Such are the dominant thoughts that have guided these studies.

It is scarcely more; for its great peculiarity is its proclamation Of a work of gracious help from God to man, performed because God is what he is, and all its substance beyond this consists in the unfolding Of what it means, in experience and thought, that God is such a Being as Jesus Christ makes known. Christianity is religion with such a God, and Christian theology is the doctrine of such a God, and of that which follows from his being.
