All which do with one consent proclaim, that God will not accept the repentance of any man, or hear his prayer, or accept his alms and oblations, unless he first be reconciled to his Heighbour, and make him all the restitution that is in his power...'..! '.'. CHAP. XXX. 1 COR. xiii. 4, 5, 6,7.--Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charily envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed ufi, doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily firo.voked, thinketh no evil, rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; beareth all things, beUeveth all things, hafieth all things, endureth all things. $ 1. AS the tree of life was planted in the midst of paradise, bearing fruits that made him live forever who ate thereof; so has the Lord in the midst of the paradise of the christian church, set up Jesus Christ, as a means to give life and nourishment to all such as unfeignedly believe in his name; he being the ever-springing tree of life in the midst of this paradise of God. The whole substance of the christian religion consists properly in faith and in love. As by faith in Christ, the life of a christian is most endeared to God; (the life he lives being not so much his own, as the life of Christ in him) so love proves in him the very productive principle of all such charitable acts as relate to his neighbour. By faith he takes, as it were, of the tree of life; by love he digests what he has taken, and sets forth the virtue thereof by suitable works of charity. As it is impossible to please God without faith, so is it impossible to serve our neighbour without love. And so true is it, that all virtues, how shining soever they be, are without charity, of no...

Book excerpt: Johann Arndt's True Christianity was the most popular devotional work within the Lutheran tradition in the century following the Reformation. This book went through a number of editions in Germany, and has been translated into dozens of languages. Through a series of meditations, Arndt discusses the Christian life in practical terms, which were meant to be understood by the average layperson.Arndt's writing was influenced by the Theologia Germanica, John Tauler's sermons, and Thomas A Kempis' The Imitation of Christ, along with the writings of Martin Luther. Significantly, Arndt mentored Johann Gerhard, who continued Arndt's promotion of practical piety, while also providing a rigorous academic defense of Lutheran thought.

Download or read book Johann Arndt written by Daniel van Voorhis and published by New Reformation Publications. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of the most significant devotional author of the seventeenth century in his first full English language biography. Using previously unknown letters as a few of the resources, this story aims to recreate the theological, sometimes magical, and social worlds of Johann Arndt. Arndt was regarded by his peers and successive generations as either the most significant Reformer since Luther, or an uneducated and dangerous element within the Lutheran church. Later commentators have given Arndt the credit, or blame, for the founding of the Pietist movement. Arndt was a central figure in the forging of various Lutheran "orthodoxies" of the early seventeenth century and thus the first generation to attempt an interpretation of the Lutheran Confessions of Faith. He is challenged by some on the conservative right for his mystical influences, but was a hero to orthodox Lutheran Johann Gerhard. He did more than found the pietist tradition (which he actually may or may not have); he also became the father of a Lutheran spiritual, maybe mystical tradition. While this movement would only last in more extreme forms of the Lutheran church, the argument from Arndt, Gerhard, and others was that this tradition was not in conflict with the teachings of the Lutheran Confessions. It's a movement that almost was, and lives on in whispers in the church today.

Download or read book An Introduction to German Pietism written by Douglas H. Shantz and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An up-to-date portrait of a defining moment in the Christian story—its beginnings, worldview, and cultural significance. Winner of the Dale W. Brown Book Award of the Young Center for Anabaptists and Pietist Studies at Elizabethtown College An Introduction to German Pietism provides a scholarly investigation of a movement that changed the history of Protestantism. The Pietists can be credited with inspiring both Evangelicalism and modern individualism. Taking into account new discoveries in the field, Douglas H. Shantz focuses on features of Pietism that made it religiously and culturally significant. He discusses the social and religious roots of Pietism in earlier German Radicalism and situates Pietist beginnings in three cities: Frankfurt, Leipzig, and Halle. Shantz also examines the cultural worlds of the Pietists, including Pietism and gender, Pietists as readers and translators of the Bible, and Pietists as missionaries to the far reaches of the world. He not only considers Pietism's role in shaping modern western religion and culture but also reflects on the relevance of the Pietist religious paradigm of today. The first survey of German Pietism in English in forty years, An Introduction to German Pietism provides a narrative interpretation of the movement as a whole. The book's accessible tone and concise portrayal of an extensive and complex subject make it ideal for courses on early modern Christianity and German history. The book includes appendices with translations of German primary sources and discussion questions.

Download or read book Kierkegaard, Literature, and the Arts written by Eric Ziolkowski and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume fifteen eminent scholars illuminate the broad and often underappreciated variety of the nineteenth-century Danish thinker Søren Kierkegaard’s engagements with literature and the arts. The essays in Kierkegaard, Literature, and the Arts, contextualized with an insightful introduction by Eric Ziolkowski, explore Kierkegaard’s relationship to literature (poetry, prose, and storytelling), the performing arts (theater, music, opera, and dance), and the visual arts, including film. The collection is rounded out with a comparative section that considers Kierkegaard in juxtaposition with a romantic poet (William Blake), a modern composer (Arnold Schoenberg), and a contemporary singer-songwriter (Bob Dylan). Kierkegaard was as much an aesthetic thinker as a philosopher, and his philosophical writings are complemented by his literary and music criticism. Kierkegaard, Literature, and the Arts will offer much of interest to scholars concerned with Kierkegaard as well as teachers, performers, and readers in the various aesthetic fields discussed.

Book excerpt: This classic work, first published in 1675, inaugurated the movement in Germany called Pietism. In it a young pastor, born and raised during the devastating Thirty Years War, voiced a plea for reform of the church which made the author and his proposals famous. A lifelong friend of the philosopher Leibnitz, Spener was an important influence in the life of the next leader of German Pietism, August Herman Francke. He was also a sponsor at the baptism of Nicholas Zinzendorf, founder of the Moravian Church, whose members played a crucial role in the life of John Wesley.

Download or read book Early Evangelicalism written by W. R. Ward and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-09-07 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evangelicalism contributed to the great transformation of ideas in the modern world. This book represents a pioneering study of discussions within the evangelical movements from Central Europe to the American colonies about what constituted evangelical identity and of the basis of the fraternity among evangelical leaders of strikingly different backgrounds. Through a global study of the major figures and movements in the early evangelical world, W. R. Ward aims to show that down through the eighteenth century the evangelical elite had coherent answers to the general intellectual problems of their day and that piety as well as the enlightenment was a significant motor of intellectual change. However, as the century wore on the evangelicals lost the ability to state a broad intellectual setting for their case, and when they entered on their period of greatest social influence in the nineteenth century their former cohesion disintegrated into acute partisan wrangling.

Download or read book Kierkegaard, Pietism and Holiness written by Christopher Baldwin Barnett and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Søren Kierkegaard wrote that Pietism is 'the one and only consequence of Christianity', yet his relation to Pietism has been largely neglected in the secondary literature. Kierkegaard, Pietism and Holiness fills this scholarly gap and, in doing so, provides the first full-length study of Kierkegaard's relation to the Pietist movement. First accounting for Pietism's role in Kierkegaard's social, ecclesial, and intellectual background, Barnett goes on to demonstrate Pietism's impact on Kierkegaard's published authorship, principally regarding the relationship between Christian holiness and secular culture.
