Book Synopsis A Short History of Christianity, in the Apostolic Age (Classic Reprint) by : George Holley Gilbert
Download or read book A Short History of Christianity, in the Apostolic Age (Classic Reprint) written by George Holley Gilbert and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Christianity, in the Apostolic Age The aim of this book is to furnish Bible students a guide and companion in their investigation of the apostolic age. The author, cherishing that same ideal of thorough, constructive study of the Bible which dominates the former volumes of this series, has endeavored to do for the earliest period of church history what Professors Burton and Mathews have done for the life of Christ. As in that volume, so in this, the needs of students in academies and colleges, and in the advanced classes of Sunday schools, have been constantly regarded. This work has been done with a conviction that the simple facts about the gospel in the first Christian generation are as interesting as a great imaginative poem, as essential to a liberal education as a knowledge of Greek history in the time of Pericles or of English history in the reign of Henry VIII, and more inspiring, more illuminating as regards the very spirit of Jesus, than the facts of any subsequent period in the long history of the Christian church. In order that one may get the best results from the use of this book, it is urged that the passages of Scripture referred to in the synopsis at the head of each chapter be read carefully before reading the chapter, and then, after the chapter has been read, be studied again with even more care. The book wishes to be a guide to a certain region of early Christian history, but to the fulfilment of this end the student must enter that region for himself and must dwell in it with open eyes and open mind. Teachers who may use this book will, it is earnestly hoped, make plain to their pupils the necessity of securing first-hand acquaintance with the New Testament documents on which it is based. The book is divided into Parts, Chapters, and Sections, the limits of which are determined by the nature and relations of the events and literature to be studied. Teachers are advised to assign lessons according to their judgment of the ability of the pupils to do the work, always including with the sections assigned for study the questions that pertain to them.

This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Our Religion, From Moses to the Present Day The teaching of this subject has, presumably, two closely correlated aims: first, it would seek, on the purely intel lectual level, to give a clear idea of the nature of the Christian religion and its historical development and achievement; secondly, it would seek to create, as a result of this purely intellectual process, a sense of the overwhelming importance of Christianity and its continuous and increasing vitality. The latter aim will not perhaps be pursued directly in the class-room, but its achievement would result spontaneously from the achievement of the former aim. At present neither aim is generally achieved. Many reasons for failure might be suggested, but two in particular fall to be mentioned here since they explain the idea of the present book. In the first place we have, in our Bible teaching, been too much occupied with political, biographical, and geographical details, which, from the standpoint of Christian Divinity, are of secondary importance. For what makes Bible history worth studying at all is the religious history, and the rest is only useful in so far as it explains that.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christianity and the Roman Empire It is not possible to discuss so intricate a subject without assuming some knowledge on the part of the reader. But it is believed that a very elemen tary acquaintance with the familiar facts of general history will make this little work intelligible. For the sake of those who may desire some introduction to the early Christian writers, but may only have access to translations such as are contained in the ante-nicene Christian Library, the chief works are cited by their English titles. In the Appendices an attempt has been made to supply such information concerning the principal persons whose names appear in these pages, as will enable the reader to refer them without difficulty to their proper date, locality, and school of thought.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Christianity The little book herewith given to the public is based upon the "Kircheugeschichte im Grundriss," by Professor Rudolph Sohm, professor of jurisprudence in the University of Leipzig, the many excellencies of which are enhanced by the fact that here Church history is written from the stand-point of a lawyer. The aim has been to preserve every thing of value to the American reader which the original work contains, and to add much which it omits or barely mentions. Thus 17, 18, 37, 38, 39, 53, 54, 55, 56, are all additional, as also the supplementary and explanatory notes, and the chronological tables. In the translated portions, omissions and additions were made, and statements of opinion altered whenever it was deemed necessary. The book in its English form, therefore, is practically an independent work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Christian Theophagy The subsequent history of the eucharist is Chief ly the record of attempts to rationalize a doctrine that, after the first three or four centuries of the vulgar era, no longer seemed natural. In transub stantiation, in consubstantiation, in the various ex planations of the modes of the real presence evolved by the Reformers, we see but so many ef forts on the part of reason to grasp the mystery of the words: This is my body. As, in the contro versies followrng Luther's revolt, the matter te ceived the most thorough discussion that it ever received, the period of the Reformation bulks large in the present work. After the sixteenth century, little that was new or important was said upon the subject. The Zwinglian theory that the bread and wine were mere symbols was silently adopted by most Protestants, by all, indeed, except a small band who consciously clung to whatever was an cient and impressive in ritual and to the credo quia absurdum in doctrine. Both among Christians and rationalists the matter ceased to attract attention. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Short History of S. P. C. K (Classic Reprint) written by W. K. Lowther Clarke and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of S. P. C. K The object of this little book is to give a brief sketch of the past history and present work of the Society for Pro moting Christian Knowledge, for the' benefit of those who would like to know something about it, but, for want either of time or inclination, do not care to read a long book on the subject. The existence of the official History of the' Society, published in 1898 to mark. Its second centenary, absolves me from the duty of attempting any measure of completeness. References seemed unnecessary in so slight a sketch as this, which, except foria few details drawn from unprinted records, is a compilation from the above - mentioned History, well-known books on the Church life of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and the Monthly and Annual Reports of the Society. The book was written during 1918, at a time when the Society was feeling the strain of the Great War severely. It has been twice evicted from its premises by the Government. The scarcity of paper has handicapped the publishing depart ment in many directions. The Committee thought it right to suggest to the Organising Secretaries to put themselves at the disposal of the Church authorities, in order that they might render to Church and nation whatever service seems best suited to their capacities. The Society's income has suffered considerably as a result of war conditions, and so I' have written this little book in the hope' that those into whose han'ds it falls may be led to take an interest in this, the oldest of our Church organisations. The reader may perhaps wonder whether, if this was my object, I have gone the right way to work. Is not the tone in places more critical, than is wise in such a book?
