Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spiritual Sanity and Other Sermons I have long been accustomed to say in response to questions about my sermons that if they were not in the lives of my people they could not be found elsewhere. A handful of notes represents many years of preaching. The sermon has to me never been an end in itself, only a channel of blessing. And it is only in answer to the entreaty of a host of friends in many lands that I have arranged the sermons for this volume. The vividness and sudden sweep of thought may be missed by some. But that is the attendant of extempore preaching which has been my custom mainly for thirty years. Always happy in preaching, I feel a degree of pleasure in using this pulpit of our beloved American Tract Society.

And even in his own day Elijah seems to have inspired awe and wonder rather than affection. He was a stern, reserved man, who scarcely seemed to feel as other men felt. Not only have we Ahab's startled cry, Hast thou found me, O mine enemy? But even the widow of Zarephath, who had watched for months with wondering eye the prophet's sombre face, exclaimed as she clutched the corpse of her boy, Hast thou come to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son? So, too, Obadiah, though supported by a good conscience, still doubted this incomprehensible man. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spiritual Perspective and Other Sermons This saying was addressed to Scribes and Pharisees. As a class, they were given to make religion too much a matter of outward forms and ceremonies - too little a matter of the heart. There were no doubt Pharisees and Pharisees and an idea of Pharisaism derived from the New Testament alone would probably be exceedingly unjust. But still, making every allowance and giving them credit for a large measure of real earnestness and real goodness, there can be no doubt that the average Pharisee was far too much engrossed with ceremonial considerations, with conduct rather than with character, with ritual rather than with moral uprightness: and Jesus, with his perception that it is character which gives to conduct its abiding grace and glory, laid his finger at once upon this want of proportion in the prevailing views of duty and religion, and tried to make people discern more clearly what things were of real importance and what were comparatively insignificant.

Our introduction into the real knowledge of celestial society cannot take place until we are changed. It would be scarcely less possible for the irrational to come into affinity of knowledge and sympathy with the rational than for the rational to come into affinity of know ledge and sympathy with the celestial and the divine, without this change concerning which we are assured. We shall' have a nature that will enable us to feel at home in heaven, that will enable us to associate with angels and with God without consciousness of shrinking or of shame.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wisdom of God's Fools Studies in Spiritual Sagacity It is to the credit Of Naaman that he heeded the good advice Of his servants. Proud man that he was, he bowed his stubborn will and obeyed the command of Elisha. He did precisely what the prophet told him to do; he bathed himself not once or twice or three times, but seven times in the river Jordan, and his ﬂesh came as the ﬂesh Of a little child. Naaman became a fool for God's sake and the wisdom of God was demonstrated in the cure which followed. What had seemed Naaman's wisdom was Naaman's folly, and what had seemed foolishness in Naaman's eyes was in reality the deepest wisdom.

For instance, suppose that God had 7201 for bidden us to steal, would it be right then to steal, or at least, not wrong?

Barton, Pastor of the Shawmut Congregational Church, Boston; Delivered Sunday, March 17, 1895 Human nature is not simple, but complex. The whole advance of life is away from simplicity, and toward complex ity. Life in its lowest forms exhibits little, and relatively uniform sensibility. Nature makes a wonderful advance when one nerve becomes sensitive to light, another to sound, another to taste, another to smell, another to touch. From this point up to such organs of special sense as man exhibits is a still more wonderful advance into complexity.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Transfiguration of Life, and Other Sermons Aside from the warrant of ancient custom, and perhaps the explanation of that custom, a moun tain is especially adapted to these unique and striking revelations. There is completest solitude and Silence, no Sight or sound of the busy world to divert the attention of the man to whom God is pleased to disclose himself. There is pure air on these high-lifted slopes, no smoke or mist to distort or confuse the vision. There is a sugges tion of other-worldliness in the gray stillness the strife and fret of life have receded into remote distance, and the heavens have come nearer. So far as the inﬂuence of physical surroundings is concerned, no place so suitable as a mountain to fit a man to see and hear God.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spiritual Knowing or Bible Sunshine: The Spiritual Gospel of Jesus the Christ As materialism has its watchword in the phrase the strenuous life, so the other movement expresses its fundamental thought in the process described as spiritual knowing. It is a moderate estimate that there are not less than two million people in America who accept that term as descriptive of their thought and purpose. The strenuous life is the law of material evolution. It results in the survival of the fittest. Spiritual knowing is a process of moral and spiritual development. Its effect is to fit the human race to survive. It is a movement of the people and not of the churches. But it belongs in the churches, and will in time be assimilated by them. It is simply the spiritual gospel of Jesus the Christ, which the people are rediscovering and applying. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Way of Life: Holiness Unto the Lord; The Indwelling Spirit The Bible is a soul history - a soul prophecy - a soul chart. It tells where man originally stood with God. It contains the history of man's fall from that position, through transgression of God's law, into a state of sin. It tells of the consequences to man of this fall. It gives a hope and a prophecy of the possibility of man's restoration again. It contains, also, a chart of a way opened up for man back, out of bis sin, to God. By a study of the falling away from God, man gained the wisdom which comes of experience. By a study of the chart, he receives guidance for his return The wisdom gained by the fall would be of no avail without the chart for the return. The chart, without the bitter wisdom gained, the experience, might never be made use of. It takes both to make good an answer to the question, "Sirs, what must I do to be saved?" No clear answer to this question can be given without first considering what man is to be saved from; and how he came to be lost. This takes us back at once to the very beginning, to find where, and how, man first starts into life. What does the Bible record show upon these points? The record shows: 1 - That man is born of God, - "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness..". "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him: male and female created he them."

They fall like rain on the mown field, bringing again to life the roots of feeling and of conduct that the hot sun of care has parched. Come, says Jesus, with your laboring and heavy laden souls, and I will give you rest; for I will show you that religion is not to do this act or that, in this way or in another but to live justly and mercifully, and with humble devoutness and this every man can do in his own soul. This only is my yoke, to be meek and lowly of heart which is an easy yoke and a light burden because truly it is in accordance with the nature of the soul. Now this you see sets peace in the state of the mind and not in any outward doings or fortunes. Now peace is the blessing the world calls for. DO not you wish peace? Has not Heaven always been thought of as a rest? Herbert says that weariness shall toss us to the breast of our Father. Who of you is not tired often? Who of you wages not a strife which sometimes is exhausting? To beat peace, to have a quiet mind, - this always has been a great need, and sought anxiously.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sweeney's Sermons: With a Sketch of the Author's Life Christianity came from God by revelation through inspired men. "Holy men of God" who taught the Christian religion to the world "spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost," "not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth." The teaching of those inspired men of God has come down to us in the holy scriptures, and our province is simply to learn and to follow what is set forth in the Bible. In the very nature of the case, therefore, we are disciples, or learners, in so far as we are anything at all in matters of religion. There are no privileged orders in Christianity. We are all equally near to God and the Bible. No class of men have any right to stand between any other man or class of men and the Bible as authoritative expounders or interpreters of the holy scriptures. No man is under any obligation to accept another man's understanding of the Bible as the basis of his religious action. Every man is at liberty to state what he understands the Bible to teach on any subject, but no one else is bound by such statements, in respect to his own faith and action in religious matters.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Seeing and Being: And Other Sermons When the French revolutionist Condorcet was outlawed by the Revolutionary Tribunal because he dared impeach the murder of the Girondins as a crime against the State, he went into concealment in Paris, and with the uproar of the Terror daily ringing in his ears, his life in constant jeopardy, he found a quiet place in his own mind, from which he listened with an imperturbable serenity to the mad tumult raging everywhere about him. Under such circumstances, he completed his great work upon the Progress of the Human Mind, concluding it with these memorable words: "Does not this picture of the human race, freed from all its fetters, withdrawn from the empire of chance, and walking with assured step in the path of truth and virtue and happiness, present to the philosopher a sight that consoles him for the errors, the crimes, the injustice, with which the earth is yet stained and of which he is not seldom a victim? It is in the contemplation of this picture that he receives the reward of his efforts for the progress of reason, for the defence of liberty. He ventures to link them with the eternal chain of the destinies of man: it is there that he finds the true recompense of virtue, - the pleasure of having done a lasting good. Fate can no longer undo it by any disastrous compensation that shall restore prejudice and bondage. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
