Download or read book A Retreat written by John Cuthbert Hedley and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-29 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE following Discourses or Meditations are intended to furnish matter for a Retreat of eight or ten days. Each of them consists of devout considerations, followed by points for mental prayer. The considerations are to be read over slowly and with devotional attention; and the points are to be wrought out with as much fervour of affective acts as may be possible. Each discourse, with its affections, is calculated to afford matter for about an hour's exercise. The Retreat is intended for priests, religious, and persons in the world. Here and there will be found remarks addressed more especially to one or other of these classes; but the point of view taken is, on the whole, one which concerns the human soul in its relations with its Creator and Redeemer, and which does not depend on any obligation arising from vows or state of life. Even in such meditations as "The Religious Promise," "Obedience," and "poverty," principles are treated which lie at the root of all Christian practice, and aspirations are proposed which will be found natural and useful by every heart which seriously desires to give itself to God.

Book Synopsis Meditations and Discourses on the Glory of Christ by : John Owen
Download or read book Meditations and Discourses on the Glory of Christ written by John Owen and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-06-10 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Owen was an English Nonconformist church leader, theologian, and academic administrator at the University of Oxford. He was chosen to preach to parliament on the day after the execution of King Charles I, and succeeded in fulfilling his task without directly mentioning that event. Another sermon, a plea for sincerity of religion in high places, won not only the thanks of parliament but the friendship of Oliver Cromwell, who took Owen to Ireland as his chaplain, that he might regulate the affairs of Trinity College, Dublin. He pleaded with the House of Commons for the religious needs of Ireland as some years earlier he had pleaded for those of Wales. In March 1651, Cromwell, as Chancellor of Oxford University, gave him the deanery of Christ Church Cathedral, Oxford, and made him Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University in September 1652. During his eight years of official Oxford life Owen showed himself a firm disciplinarian, thorough in his methods, though, as John Locke testifies, the Aristotelian traditions in education underwent no change. While little encouragement was given to a spirit of free inquiry, Puritanism at Oxford was not simply an attempt to force education and culture into "the leaden moulds of Calvinistic theology." Owen, unlike many of his contemporaries, was more interested in the New Testament than in the Old. During his Oxford years he wrote Justitia Divina (1653), an exposition of the dogma that God cannot forgive sin without an atonement; Communion with God (1657), Doctrine of the Saints' Perseverance (1654), his final attack on Arminianism; Vindiciae Evangelicae, a treatise written by order of the Council of State against Socinianism as expounded by John Biddle; On the Mortification of Sin in Believers (1656), an introspective and analytic work; Schism (1657), one of the most readable of all his writings; Of Temptation (1658), an attempt to recall Puritanism to its cardinal spiritual attitude from the jarring anarchy of sectarianism and the pharisaism which had followed on popularity and threatened to destroy the early simplicity.

Book Synopsis Religion and Public Discourse in an Age of Transition by : Geoffrey Cameron
Download or read book Religion and Public Discourse in an Age of Transition written by Geoffrey Cameron and published by Wilfrid Laurier Univ. Press. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology, tourism, politics, and law have connected human beings around the world more closely than ever before, but this closeness has, paradoxically, given rise to fear, distrust, and misunderstanding between nation-states and religions. In light of the tensions and conflicts that arise from these complex relationships, many search for ways to find peace and understanding through a “global public sphere.” There citizens can deliberate on issues of worldwide concern. Their voices can be heard by institutions able to translate public opinion into public policy that embraces more than simply the interests and ideas of the wealthy and the empowered. Contributors to this volume address various aspects of this challenge within the context of Bahá’í thought and practice, whose goal is to lay the foundations for a new world civilization that harmonizes the spiritual and material aspects of human existence. Bahá’í teachings view religion as a source of enduring insight that can enable humanity to repair and transcend patterns of disunity, to foster justice within the structures of society, and to advance the cause of peace. Accordingly, religion can and ought to play a role in the broader project of creating a pattern of public discourse capable of supporting humanity’s transition to the next stage in its collective development. The essays in this book make novel contributions to the growing literature on post-secularism and on religion and the public sphere. The authors additionally present new areas of inquiry for future research on the Bahá’í faith.

Download or read book Bread of Life Discourse written by Arthur DEEGAN ll and published by Pageturner Press and Media. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered how you would have reacted to the invitation of Jesus to eat His flesh and drink His blood if you had been one of His followers at that time? In Part One the author invites the reader or small group to read the mind of Joseph of Arimathea, a follower of Jesus, as he might have pondered the import of the words and actions of Jesus as reported in the Gospel of St. John. In Part Two some of those same words of Christ deepen the personal meaning of today's Holy Communion. Modern-day followers of Jesus find inspiration in the invitation of Christ to partake of this Bread of Life. The intent of this book is to reflect on the words and actions of Jesus as He discoursed about the Bread of Life and develop a burning zeal for the Blessed Sacrament.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1850 edition. Excerpt: ...gold, the freedom of the universe, the freedom certified to us of an everlasting progress in virtue and social blessedness, which no change can interrupt, is bestowed by Jesus Christ. Here is the great point and peculiarity of our religion. This 15 lies not simply in its revelation of the fatherhood of God, and the brotherhood of men, glorious, inspiring, and fruitful doctrines as these are. Still less does it lie in any theory about human nature, or sin or salvation. It is to be found rather in the assured direction our religion gives to the long-questioning, groping, doubting faculties of the human mind; and in the clear, broad aim with which it raises the affections of the human heart, so long feeling after, if haply they might find their fate, and too often sadly, in their darkness, searching around the grave-stone and the narrow house as the last distinct objects in their doom. It is in the home, in short, among eternal realities provided for the spirit that is in man, and " a stranger on the earth "! I trust I do not open a vein of sentiment remote from any of you, or point to a source of relief for merely fictitious necessities. Have you never, in your meditation, in your adversity, in your grief, in your satiety, in your uneasy longing, had the experience? As you have finished the ever-recurring routine of the day's labor, while you listened to the monotonous cries of business, or as you heard the sounds of evening gayety, have you never become aware, that your soul was very much a stranger among these things; that it had " faculties " which could not be "used" upon them, and needed to abide in some higher objects, before it could be truly at home? When your capacities of thought and emotion have been aroused by some special...
Download or read book God Is . . . written by Wesley J. Wildman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-02-27 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your God is too small--way too small! What if God is not a human-like personal being but the God Beyond God of the Christian mystical traditions? What if God is the ultimate reality beyond all beings, including beyond all divine beings, indeed beyond all Being? It's a mind-bending idea. Speaking of God as a human-like personal being is much easier but people who care about the deepest mystical understandings of God within our traditions need to make the effort to speak about the God Beyond God, despite the difficulties. This book makes the attempt to speak of the God Beyond God in the language of the sermon, using metaphor and potent imagery tuned to the existential intensities of human life. The God Beyond God is closer to us than our jugular veins, vividly present in every moment of our lives. These sermons are practical and moving, and they also resonate with the most rigorous theological understandings of ultimate reality. Their deconstruction of our convenient fantasies about a divine being make these sermons emotionally intense and perhaps not suitable for beginners in the journey of faith. But veteran believers can breathe deeply in the air of these meditations, relaxing into the bliss of engaging ultimate reality without delusions, without deflections, and without controlling the object of our worship.
