This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Doctrines of the New Church Briefly Explained To supply this need, has been the author's main purpose in the preparation of the present volume. The questions are often asked, What does the New Church believe and teach? And wherein. Do its doctrines differ from those of other churches? This little work Will be found to contain true and intelligible answers to these inquiries. The expositions have, for the most part, been necessarily brief; but the reader, who may wish to pursue the inquiry, is repeatedly referred to other works, wherein the same subjects are treated more extensively, and with rational and Scriptural evidence of what is believed to be the truth of the New Church views herein presented. For the purpose of showing the need of some such new revelation as that claimed to have been made through Swedenborg, the author has taken occasion to contrast the Old with the New view on many subjects; but in doing this, he has been careful to present the view which was generally accepted in Swedenborg's day, - well knowing that the Old Theology has, in many respects, been considerably modified by the quiet but constantly pervading influence of the New so that many of the New views are now held by the most advanced Christians in nearly all the churches, often with out a suspicion of the fact that they are New.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Doctrines of Grace To the nations, and none of his successors in this high office has spoken with such persuasive power. Any one differs from St. Paul at his intellectual peril, and every one may imitate him with spiritual profit. One therefore compares together the dominant note of the Apostle and of the modern preacher with interest, and one observes with concern that the characteristic modern strikes a lower key. St. Paul carried himself as an ambassador, charged with a com mission by God and addressing subjects who had rebelled against their king; the preacher of to day is rather a barrister pleading his case with an impartial and critical jury from whom he hopes to win a favorable verdict on Jesus Christ. The Apostle believed that he had received from God, by the inspiration of the Holy Ghost, a divine message containing the terms of reconciliation and appealing to every man's conscience as a sinner; the modern has found in the religion of Jesus a reasonable discipline for the soul, and endeavors to convince his fellow-men of its excellent beauty. The Apostle was firmly con vinced that if any man Jew or Gentile, receivedm doctrines of grace. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Compendium of the Faith and Doctrines of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints: Compiled From the Bible; And Also From the Book of Mormon, Doctrine and Covenants, and Other Publications of the Church; With an Appendix I also trust that it will be found of great value to those who may wish to search after the rich stores of knowledge which our various publications contain, the study of which has, no doubt, been often neglected on account of the great labour which has heretofore been necessary to find the most important Revelations, Discourses, Articles, &c., on the leading Doctrines of the Church. But few will probably fully appreciate the difficulties attendant on the first compilation of a work of this kind. To break new ground - to bring the most important passages from several different publications to bear on nearly fifty different subjects - has required much time and patient research. That it might be much improved, I am well aware; but if it prove an efficient aid to the Elders in their labours to spread the Truth, and an assistant to those who love to search after the principles of salvation, and supply in some measure the want that has been felt for a work of the kind, the general objects for which it was commenced will have been attained. I have only endeavoured to assist others in their efforts to obtain the implements with which to combat the powers of darkness, and it will require great care on their part to use them at all times with wisdom.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christian Doctrine of God That the kingdom of God or of heaven proclaimed by Jesus is a fellowship of men, appears not only from the natural import of the word kingdom, but from such expressions as, least in the kingdom, great in the kingdom (matt. V. 19, xviii. Of such is the kingdom, he shall in no wise enter therein (mark x. I4, I etc. That in it the highest morality is obeyed, is clear from the Sermon on the Mount (matt. V. - vii. Luke Vi. 20 - 42) and the whole tenor of our Lord's teaching; and that it is done as the will of God, appears from the phrase kingdom, which often means reign, of its being joined in the Lord's Prayer with the doing of His will (matt.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Foundation and Plain Instruction of the Saving Doctrine of Our Lord Jesus Christ: Briefly Compiled From the Word of God; Translated From the Dutch Language Into the German, Together With Other Instructive Treatises Beloved reader: We live in a period of time in which 'many writings are circulated among the people, which generally are more injurious than beneficial, since the greater part contain not the pure and uncorrupted truth of the gospel, although it is the only rule, in accordance with which every thing should be regulated, Written and taught, as St. Paul testifies Though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

If its directions were fol lowed, there would not be so many scorners oi the Christian reli gion; for, by the pious, virtu'ous, and godly life Of its professors, they would be convinced that something true and substantial is in its composition; as Paul teaches, that the gospel of Christ is the power of God unto salvation, to every one that believe th.

Rious, envious, and implacable against 'those who may have ag grieved them, so they are now humble, mild, condescending, patient, peaceable, and forgiving towards their opponents, accordingto the example of their Lord and Saviour J esus Christ, and the instruo tions of his word. But this salutary in uence is to be found and per ceived in so small a degree among the present Christians, that the reverse is much more in vogue, from which circumstance it, conse'. Quently, arises that atheism, the rejection of all revealed religion, advances with such rapid strides. For, say its advocates, were the' professors of Christianity firm believers in the truth of scripture, they would conduct their lives according to its tenor, as Christ and his apostles have inculcated; but since this conformity is but seldom evinced, they conclude it to be the work ofman, and a fabric of impos ture, and exclaim: Our bonds are in twain and we are free; we will none of us go without his part of our volup tuousness, for this is our portion, (to.
