Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christianity and the Britons Many persons entertain vague notions regarding the introduction of Christianity among the Britons. Some imagine that the British Isles were visited by one of the Apostles of our Lord. Others, that missionaries went from Gaul. While not a few look upon St. Augustine as the great missionary to the Britons, and suppose that little was done for their conversion before he landed on their shores. On the contrary, as we propose to shoAv, Christianity had a foothold in Britain some 400 years before St. Augustines day and continued to hold its ground imder the same auspices The Roman Catholic Church for more than 900 years after his arrival. In order to give the historic facts their true setting, we have hastily sketched the progress of the Christian Churches from the end of the first century to the beginning of the twentieth. From the time when Revelation ceased and the Bible became a completed book, to the time when it speaks in 456 tongues to the nations of the world in accents that proclaim its Divine origin.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Religion in England The Religion of England - Ever since the English were a nation, their religion has been. That of the Catholic Church of Christ. From the time that the Angles, Saxons, and J utes became Christians to the Reformation, from the sixth to the sixteenth century, all religious people in England were members of the Church. Since the Reformation other religious bodies have sprung into existence, some of them differing slightly, some very materially, from the Church; have attracted to themselves numbers of earnest and devout people; and have exercised a cor responding influence, from time to time, upon the government and policy of England. Still the majority of Englishmen have always remained members of the Church, and consequently the History of Religion in England is mainly the History of the Church of England.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cambria Sacra: Or the History of the Early Cambro-British Christians On Thursday, the 17th of August, 1876, I visited Llandewi Brefi, Cardiganshire, with the determination of not passing through that county without making a pilgrimage to the valley within which had been held the most important ecclesiastical Council ever assembled in Cambria. After walking eight or nine miles from Lampeter, along the river Teifi, under a tropical sun, I reached' the village about mid-day. Vehicles standing at the doors of public-houses, a number of people strolling about in holiday dress, whilst others pic-nic'd on the banks of the stream, now nearly dried up, indicated that some festivity was being held. I was informed that the annual meeting of the members of the Church of England, honoured by the presence of the neighbouring Protestant clergy, was the cause of this unusual weekday gathering. The Church people mustered in fair strength, and, as far as I could judge from those whom I addressed, Welsh was the language of the district, for many could neither speak nor understand any other. I proceeded, in the first instance, to examine as closely as possible the spot on which the Church stands; for the legend, as told in the "Lives of the Cambro-British Saints," distinctly states that the ground on which the sacred temple was afterwards built had risen under the feet of St. David, so as to form an improvised platform, from which he could address the thousands eager to listen to his eloquent teaching.

This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the Church of England Christian faith was brought to its people. But by whose enthusiasm this bringing of the Faith came about it is impossible to say. There is an old legend that Joseph of Arimathea came with twelve companions and settled at Glastonbury, and in the ground there planted his staff, which budded and grew into the famous Holy Thorn. That beautiful story, however, is only first heard of many hundred years after S. Joseph was dead. The cause which most likely led to the heathen Britons being taught the faith was an outbreak of bitter persecution which fell upon the Christians in South - Eastern Gaul in the year 177. Just as we read in the New Testament that by reason of the persecution of Stephen, Philip and others were scattered abroad, so, too, in all probability as a result of the persecu tion at Lyons and Vienne, fugitives fled along the great Roman roads to cross the Channel and hide in Britain, as in an earlier day fugitives from the rule of Julius Caesar had also done.

We need not ask where or what England is. Every boy and girl can tell as that England is the largest of the three parts of the island lying west of the conti nent of Europe, called Great Britain. Everyone knows that England is the center of that great empire upon whose terri tory the sun never sets. Agriculture and manufactures flourish there; good roads, schoolhouses, churches, and hospitals abound. England is a civilized, a Christian nation. Once England was far different. Centuries ago the Christian religion had not reached its shores; the signs of civilization did not exist; hunt ing and fighting were the most common employments of its peo ple. Indeed, it was not England; the inhabitants were not Eng lishmen, nor did they speak a language at all like English. The island then had the name of Britain, and the people were called Britons. The story of the wonderful changes that have made early Britain the England of to-day is the history of England.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early English Church Saxons; and thus all the provinces along the south ern coast of Britain, except Cornwall and part of Devonshire, were lost to Christianity. In the year 527, another great body, of Angles, invaded the eastern and midland districts, and by degrees con quering their way, established the kingdoms of Es sex, East Anglia, and Mercia. The kingdom of Northumberland had its rise still earlier, but it was not firmly settled till about a century after the landing of Hengist in Kent. Against these invaders the Britons made no effectual resistance but in the west of England, where their king Emrys, called also Aurelius Am brosius, one of the last Roman Britons, gained a great victory over Hengist, and drove him back into the province he had first occupied. When the West Saxons afterwards, under Cerdic, made an attempt to gain possession of Somersetshire, they were de feated with great loss by the famous king Arthur, at the British town of cair-badon, near Bath, to which they had laid siege, about a.d. 520. These victories seem to have settled the freedom of the Britons for that time in the West; and they remained for many years afterwards in Somerset, part of Devon, and Cornwall, under their own princes, as well as in Wales. In the North they defended themselves also for a long time in the mountains of Cumberland and Westmoreland.

The English, when they came, paid no attention to this Celtic speech, though they picked up a few words accidentally; but after their conversion to Christianity they adopted the same forms of the Roman letters as those used by the conquered Britons.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Religion in England: A Book for Young Folk For the beginning of the story of religion in England we must go back in thought to a dim and far-off time. Reader, is there an old church or the ruin of some ancient castle in your neighbourhood? We have to go back far beyond the time when that was built - hundreds and hundreds of years further back - to a time when forests and swamps covered the greatest part of our island, and the only inhabitants were tribes of half-naked savages, as rude and fierce as the New Zealanders or the Red Indians. We must not think of all the ancient world as lying in this kind of barbarism. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the Britons HY should the legendary story of the ancient Britons be less familiar to American readers than that of the early Romans? Is it less connected with our literature? Is it less interest ing in itself? Are we quite sure that it has less of truth for its foundation? When the Romans entered Britain, about a half century before the Christian era, they found there a people possessing fortified towns, and employing superior arms and war chariots. They found a people who had traded for many centuries with the most progressive people of the Far East - the Phoenicians - and who had long possessed an alphabet. They found a priesthood singularly learned, whose course of instruction covered a period of twenty years, and whose system of culture carried to human perfection the art of memorizing, since they preferred that their learn ing should be preserved in unwritten verse.

This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chapters of Early English Church History The following Chapters are an expansion of Lectures which have been delivered to my Class, while we had Bede's History before us with a view to the Theological Final School. Wishing to connect them, in their present form, with their original purpose, I have retained a few colloquial phrases, and a few local allusions, which seemed natural in addressing a number of Oxford students, of whom several were personally well known to me. The first or introductory Chapter is devoted to the history of the ancient British Church. The general subject of the rest of the volume is the Age of the Conversion of the old-english people to Christianity a great, though comparatively a brief period, extending but little beyond a century, and closing naturally with the death, in 709, of their greatest native Bishop, him self the evangelizer of those among them who, from a peculiar isolation, were the last to receive the Faith.
