Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bible Doctrine of Prayer Too much there is of attempt in many public prayers, so called, to cover the whole range of the elements of prayer without regard to time, place, or present need. Too little of real praying and too much of making a prayer by elaborate phrase mongering. (wm. M. Taylor in Parables of Our Lord.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology of Prayer Religion, whatever else it may signify, belongs to the social aspects of our experience. It is relation to some other. It matters not that the other is not seen. The man of faith lives as seeing him who is invisible. He finds terms for this other in lan guage borrowed largely from human society. God is Father, Lord, King, Redeemer, Friend, the Great Companion. As implying social relation religion belongs therefore with other parts of life which in volve this adjustment to others, this union with others, to produce and become what would be impos sible for any one by himself alone. Whatever we may think of religious experience, it takes its place in human life and human history along with science, morality, and art, as a sphere in which man has developed a personality, a self, of peculiar range and quality. These aspects of human life as being in them selves most significant have repeatedly invited at tention. The eighteenth century made brilliant in vestigations in this field. The nineteenth century turned its interest largely to chemical and biological problems, and we reap the results in our industries, and in our control over disease. In its closing dec ades, a measure of scientific activity was directed upon the mental life, attacking at first chiefly the simple problems which could be studied in labora tories. But now with some of these more elementary problems on the way toward solution, interest is naturally turning again to what is after all of deep est interest - the world of personal relations. We have as yet scarcely made a beginning in applying to the more complex and more vitally important fields of life the scientific spirit and method which have disclosed new meaning and value in the world of nature. We are seeking to understand more fully what mind and Spirit mean in those capacities and activities due to social forces.

Download or read book The Practice of Prayer Classic Reprint written by G. Campbell Morgan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: G Campbell Morgan wrote the Practice of Prayer not just to recommend prayer, but a full biblical underpinning to a habit of prayer and an acknowledgement of the Christian doctrine of the omniscient and omnipotent God. In his life-long distinguished career of biblical study Morgan was particularly struck by the passage where the disciples beseech Jesus, 'Lord, teach us to pray'. Reverend Morgan was both insistent that the modern church consider the necessity of wholehearted, faithful prayer and the most appropriate way to achieve it. He believed that the answers were furnished to the faithful by God but that the development of faith, the knowledge of how to pray and even more importantly the appropriate attitude for worship were crucial to righteous worship. In this work he explains his concept of the correct method. Morgan examines each element of the trinity thoughtfully and explains in clear and poetic language the role that each element of the trinity plays in enabling the ideal practice of prayer. He identifies a tantalising human emotionality in Christ, the capacity for mercy in God and the inspiration for prayer that he attributes to the Holy Spirit. He refuses bars to prayer and urges those who would receive the full benefit of prayer to eschew activities that would block them from periods of theological reflection in favour of a more reflective approach to faith. As as prominent teacher, theologian and minister Reverend Morgan's arguments about the ideal approach to the practice and theory of prayer reflect his experience and education, as well as an emotional and moving account of spiritual closeness to God that he felt through prayer. For those seeking to expand the meditative element of their worship this book will linger on in the mind.

Among these signs, the conjecture that telepathy may possibly afford some clue to one aspect at least of the mysterious power exercised by prayer, is welcomed by the philosophically-religious mind as a new ground of expectation; and it finds no difficulty in agreeing with Sir Oliver Lodge that.

Download or read book The Philosophy of Prayer Classic Reprint written by Carl K. Mahoney and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-06 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of Prayer This class of writings, with few excep tions, is singularly lacking in scientific method. The approach to its themes is not the intellectual approach. It is more the poetic method Of drifting into things by way of meditation. It may be contended that the cold-blooded scrutiny of scientific method or the apparently colorless treat ment Of philosophical reasoning is out of place in a consideration of the subject Of prayer. Prayer is a matter of the heart. It lies in the realm Of feeling, Of mysticism, of intuition. But just so long as such an atti tude is taken just so long must the general thought of prayer remain vague and con fused. What is the reason for this assump tion? May not prayer submit to analysis and still retain its mysticism, its emotional content, its intuitional aspect, if these can be shown to be in accord with reality? Our devotional attitude will lose nothing in fervency or In smcerity by clarifying the meaning of prayer. Anything that can throw light on matters of spiritual life is of service to religion. Anything that will help us to a better understanding of what we are doing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sufficiency and Defects of the English Communion Office HE object which led to the enterprise of this subject was essentially practical. Considerable outcry had been raised against the interpolation into the service by the Celebrant of parts of the Unreformed Office. The outcry interpreted this action as throwing doubt or discredit on the Office of our Church. And this interpretation is justified by the open avowals of many who are addicted to this practice. They allege defect or deficiency in our Office. Others, indeed, without such allegation or conscious admission, defend their interpolations as conducing to greater fulness or richness. The object of this work in part'is to attempt to disprove the charges of insufficiency and to show the redundancy of such interpolations. The nature of the interpolations in View has been already defined. There is no reference to any private1 intercessions or devo tions of the Celebrant, but to the direct interpolation of portions of other Offices.

Download or read book The Meaning of Prayer Classic Reprint written by Harry Emerson Fosdick and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is prayer and what does it mean to pray? This is the question that Harry Emerson Fosdick addresses and answers through The Meaning of Prayer. Although published in 1915, this compilation of readings and short prayers still remains relevant to modern spiritual warriors and retreatants as the discussions presented are considered age-old truths upon which Christianity is based. This edition contains 10 chapters, each having daily readings that span a week. As such, this is an ideal guide for those desiring to go on a lengthy retreat, as well as those seeking something that will help them pray daily. Even though the readings are good for 10 weeks, one can stretch out a chapter to encompass a few weeks to a month in order to better "digest" and work on the points for reflection offered by the author. Each chapter opens with 7 readings, followed by the author's comment of the week. The "comment" is a misnomer as the passage is actually a few pages long. It ends with a set of "suggestions for thought and discussion." What's notable about this compilation is that, aside from Biblical quotes, the author supplies excerpts of poems and other types of inspirational literary works that are still relevant and related to the topic at hand. Those who are novices in prayer, as well as those who have been doing it for years, will find this book very helpful and a blessing indeed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Perfect Prayer, How Offered: How Answered All the happiness and blessings we enjoy are also the effect of immutable causes. Man was made for happiness. All his faculties of body and spirit are organized to be the subjects of pleasurable sensations and the most exqmsite joys, and all the forms and forces of the material and spirit ual worlds are adjusted to this infinitely complex organiza tion with the most delicate and the most exact precision for the purpose of ministering to human happiness, the essential purpose for which the Lord works. Why, then, should we ask the Lord to do that for ourselves or others which He is in the constant effort to do? He regards us with infinite love now; can any appeal from human lips move Him to an intenser love? He is employing all the means in His infinite power direct-ed by His infinite wisdom for our highest good now; can He be persuaded to do more or better by our importunities? It is impossible in the nature of things. 'vhy, then, should we pray? The answer evidently must be that our asking is one of the means, one link in the chain of causes and effects by which the evil is averted or the good bestowed.
