Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Discourses on War Ruskin, in one of his eloquent passages, declares that war would quickly vanish from among the civilized nations if the great body of women could once appreciate its enormity and unite in effort against it. The same thing may be said of the Christian Church and its ministers. With a common high resolve upon their part to be true to the principles of the Church's great founder, the Prince of Peace, war and the military system could not endure for a decade as a regular feature in the life of the commonwealth of nations. There is nothing so melancholy, nothing so discouraging to the worker for the peace and order of the world, as the easy readiness of multitudes of Christian churches and ministers to follow the multitude to do evil; to abdicate their ideals and high functions when their nation is once embarked or once bent on unjust war and turn with the crowd from the harp and organ to the drum and fife. The hard, severe, and unpopular but ennobling and commanding duties of moral leadership are forgotten, and the selfish motives and passions of the people are condoned and whitewashed, and mid prayer and song the worse is made to seem the better reason.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Discourse on the Aspects of the War: Delivered in the Indiana-Place Chapel, Boston on Fast Day, April 2, 1863 There was another day of crisis, when you knew What it was to love. You found yourself caring more for another than for yourself, - going out Of your own life into that of another, finding a divine joy in adoring the beauty of another, following her with your thought, and feeding your life daily out of hers. This also was history. Those days may have long passed 'by. Perhaps you are a gray-headed man, known on change as a hard and keen man of business; no mortal suspects you of such a thing as sentiment. And yet, I will venture to say, there is somewhere among your papers, in some locked drawer of your bureau, a little faded packet of notes, with a withered flower which you cannot bear to throw away, - for it marks that critical period when you were all alive with an idea - when you were rapt away out of yourself into a seventh heaven. You were foolish as you could be, no doubt, - but - well, It was life; and you can never forget it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The President, the People, and the War: A Thanksgiving Discourse 2nd Samuel, xi.7. David demanded how Joab did, and how the people did, and how the war prospered. The proclamation of the President, seconded by the Governor of the State, calling the people to grateful recognition of that Almighty Providence, which controls the affairs of men, comes at a propitious hour. It is as if the great family of states and people, passing through great trials of tears and midnight agony, seeing the dawn of their deliverance, were called to kneel around the common hearthstone, in prayer and reverent joy and gratitude. For most surely, if the good are disposed to thank God always, they are especially disposed to, when summoned by the signal tokens of his power and guidance; and if there are common sentiments in all hearts, which rise in triumphant gladness, as if swayed by a superior power, their natural, though unaccustomed expression is, that there is a Providence in the affairs of men.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mexican War: A Discourse Delivered on the Annual Fast, 1847 Deuteronomy chap. 2. v 5. Meddle not with them; for I will not give yon of their land, no, not so much as a foot breadth; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession. In the journey which the children of Israel made from Egypt to Canaan, their course lay through the country of Edom. As they approached its confines, they asked leave to pass them, on condition of refraining from all injury to the inhabitants and their possessions. The Edomites peremptorily refused, and met them with hostile demonstrations. The Israelites then changed the direction of their route, and proceeded southward to the Red Sea, whence they turned their course to the east, and after having "compassed mount Seir many days," they were commanded to advance northward towards their destined residence; and as their passage would again carry them through the territories of Edom, though in a part less capable of hostile resistance than the western frontier, they were strictly charged not to molest the inhabitants, nor take any thing from them, not even food and water, without paying an equivalent price. They were reminded that not a foot-breadth of the land was to be wrested from its owners; for it was assigned by the Divine Proprietor to the de-scendants of Esau. There was an hereditary enmity on the part of the Edomites against the Israelites, which broke out into the hostilities before mentioned, as the latter drew near their borders. The insult which the Israelites had received, and the great inconvenience to which they had been put, in being compelled to take such a circuitous course to gain the object of their journey, were calculated to inspire sentiments of hatred and revenge, and to urge them to acts of retaliation, when opportunity was presented, by the passage of the whole nation through the most defenceless portion of the enemies' dominion.

If they have not surface sequence, they do have essential connection in their purpose to give light and strength to our people as aids to victory. All of them were spoken as sermons at home. Then, being called for, were repeated and somewhat expanded. They were given to Preachers' Meetings in New York, and to various clubs, among them the Rotary Club, the New York Republican Club and the Lawyers' Club of New York. In March, 1918, several of them were spoken to the eight thousand public school teachers of Chicago, and at various times to numerous popular assemblies. Everywhere they were called for in printed form and it was urged that so prepared they would multiply their influence for good. The Rotary Club of New York published one, circulating thousands of copies. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Religion and the War: A Discourse In some very learned books on the art of preaching the advice is given the preacher to preface every sermon with a servent appeal addressed to God for the gift of grace and such power of speech as will stir the minds and thrill the hearts of his congregation. In many parts of the older continent this custom is observed in both Jewish and non-Jewish pulpits, in our land and usually on this platform it has been honored more in the breach. Today I certainly have good cause for petitioning God for aid and guidance. More than ever before am I impressed with the wisdom of the Rabbi's caution bidding even wise men have a care of their words. The power of articulate language is the distinguishing faculty of man. The old translators gave to the Hebrew phrase Nephesh 'hayah by which Adam is dignified in the old Creation story the value of the speaking being. Their rendering witnesses forsooth to their fullness of insight into the distinguishing capacity of our manhood. But this very qualification exposes men to risks which sometimes are by no means to be reckoned slight. Somebody has likened words to a stone which after leaving the hand of him who throws it can neither be recalled nor be controlled in its free flight. Psychologists know that the art of hearing is still more difficult and rare than that of speaking. In printed livery even words are not protected against the intrusion of the sympathies and antipathies, the prejudices and the partialities dormant in the mind and the heart of the reader. After all it is he who gives to the sentences of Emerson or Shaw their tone. The French worded deep wisdom when they said cest le ton qui fait la musique.

No other single thing could do more for the promotion of the cause of peace and international reason, in its conflict with the hoary methods of violence and war, than the conversion of the Christian Church to Christian principles; and nothing, surely, can help more efficiently to this end than the contemplation and careful study of one who in the pulpit from the beginning to the end of life applied those principles heroically and luminously to this great issue, as the exigencies of national life from time to time commanded it. Among all men who have stood in pulpits there is...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Providence in War: A Thanksgiving Discourse Our literature has kept pace with our science. The press is the handmaid to a purer morality - a higher civilization - a more exalted piety. Popular attention, directed to proper subjects, and popular sentiment based upon instinctive right, are both led onward by those noble minds who are the chief adornment of our era. Nay, they are beyond the era. In addition to what is, they see what should be, and are making preparation for its attain ment. In all such efforts they scatter blessings, and dig, nify their calling. True authorship is the lever of Archi medes, and universal mind the fulcrum whereon it must rest to uplift the world. Other minds there are - sharp, keen, glowing as Damascus steel - minds that seize upon the passing thought, strike it, and malleate it into form and substance - minds who, though not cleric, esteem the world their parish; and in their daily addresses, silent, invaluable, well-studied sermons on the topics touched, they teach the people the value of an honorable self reliance, the importance of independent thinking, and the manliness of manly action.
