Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Doctrine of Regeneration These words contain the foundation of all practical religion here, and happiness hereafter. It is the principal doctrine Christ, as a prophet, came to teach; and as a king, to work in the heart. The text proves the indispensable necessity of regeneration, by which I mean not a relative, but a real change of the subject, wrought in the complexion and inclinations of the soul. As in the restoring of health, there is a change made in the temper and humours of the body. As mankind were changed in Adam, from what they were in a state of creation; so men must be changed in Christ, from what they were in a state of corruption. As that change was not only relative, but real, and the relative first introduced by the real; so must this. The relation of a child of wrath, was founded upon the sin committed. Without a real change, there can be no relative. Being in Christ, as freed from condemnation, is always attended with a walking in the Spirit; and walking is not before living.

While it has never been overlooked, the difficulty of bringing it under discussion has probably been the reason for its being left somewhat in the background. Theological treatises generally give to this doctrine only one-third or one-fourth the space that is given to the atonement, and but a small portion of this is commonly given to regeneration proper.

Were it otherwise, the requirement of good works could only be of partial application, since a great portion of mankind are precluded by circumstances from the ability of doing many other good works than such as are included in the common duties of their station: whereas, when it is known that these, when done under the inﬂuence of charity and faith within, are genuine good works, we see that the poorest laborer may be as rich in them as the highest peer.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sermons on Regeneration: With Especial Reference to the Doctrine of Baptismal Regeneration The word Regeneration is only found twice in Scripture. And as both the passages in which it occurs are much controverted, I shall not adduce them as evidence in this inquiry. The adjective is not used at all in our translation we do not find the word regenerate in any part of the New Testament, that I am aware of; but the corresponding expression being born again is used. That, however, is only used twice. The one instance is in the passage, which I have now read as our text Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God the same expression being repeated immediately afterwards. And the other is in the first epistle of Peter, and the first chapter: Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the Word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever. There are, however, other expressions, which abound in the New Testa ment and which plainly have reference to some change of the same kind. Christians are said to be quickened, or brought to life; they are said to be created created in Christ Jesus they are said to be begotten of God, or to be born of God; they are likewise termed the children of God, and the sons of God.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Doctrine of Baptismal Regeneration, as It Is Held by Many in the Present Day: Calmly Examined by the Bible and Common Prayer Book, in Three Letters In sending forth these Letters to the public, the writer earnestly prays, that He "from whom all holy desires, all good counsels, and all just works do proceed," may use them in establishing divine truth; and he entreats all who read them, to do the same. There is a truth connected with this question, as well as with all others; and it should be our single aim to find out what that truth is. It has appeared to him, that most of the publications he has read, have had for their object rather the confirmation of a favourite hypothesis, than the elucidation of truth; this being the only way to account for the fact, that much of what the Church teaches on the subject of baptism and regeneration is altogether overlooked. Those who advocate one side, suppress the qualifications for baptism, implied in the Articles and required in the Catechism, taking it for granted, that they are necessary for adults only, and supposing, that infants, being innocent, as they say, do not need them; and this, although neither the Bible nor the Church has said a single word which leads to this conclusion. They thus make an important part of the teaching of our Church a dead letter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Regeneration Regeneration, according to the scriptural repre scutation of it, is a very different thing from all this. Neither orthodoxy, nor baptism, nor morality, nor outward reformation, nor the improvement of rea son, nor a visible profession, nor any degree of light to which the natural understanding may attain, answers to the conception of the new birth, as it lay in the minds of prophets and apostles. The change indicated by this term is real, not nominal; radical, not superficial; internal and Spiritual, rather than outward and carnal in a word; it is a change of the subject, and not of the name only. To be born again signifies nothing less than the infusion of a new principle of spiritual life into the soul, whereby it becomes both inclined and enabled to perform Spiritual actions, acceptable unto God. It signifies a re-impression of the Divine image upon the soul; the soul itself remaining the same in its essence, but becoming radically changed in its qualities, desires, and objects.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Primitive Doctrine of Baptismal Regeneration N ow I can imagine it said, Why not take statements as they stand? Here is a plain assertion in our baptismal service; take it in its plain meaning, and do not trouble yourself with elaborate explanations and inquiries. But the answer to this is obvious. It is very easy and very proper to take a statement as it stands, if there is no other statement either required or allowed, to which it is Opposed. But if there is, our attitude is immediately altered. We cannot help ourselves, then, but are obliged, instead of taking one statement as it stands, to go into and examine two statements. The line Of simplicity is over, and that of explanation has come; and, the surface once broken, there is no knowing how much work there may be under neath. Single truths may be taken simply; but if we have to combine conﬂicting truths, we must go more or less deep for the point of junction; for truth is like a tree, the more space it covers above ground the further it goes below, the more comprehensive it is, the deeper its root or basis is. Do those who say generally take statements as they stand, see difficulties as they stand? Or rather, do they not live in a world of truth of their own, wholly different from the real one? The course they recommend is doubtless much the simpler one, and truth also would be much more simple if it was not so complex. But truth being the complex and conﬂicting system which it is, this general maxim is for us visionary and impracticable. Let persons, then, who repeat this maxim beware that, in saying take statements as they stand, they do not practically mean take statements without under standing them, take them by themselves, out of their place, apart from their relation to other truths. This will explain, then, why, with a view to reconcile the two positions on the subject of grace, to which I have re ferred, a treatise on predestination was needful - a treatise to a certain extent metaphysical. To reconcile these two posi tions, it was necessary to enter fully into both; and it was impossible to go at all fully into the predestinarian position without a certain amount of metaphysics.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Discourses on Regeneration The word salvation necessarily suggests the idea of some existing evil, from which deliverance'has either been effected, or is required. In its simple primary meaning, it has no exclusive reference to one description of evil or of deliverance mbre than to another. But in general use, it has become so very much appropriated to the deliverance revealed by the gospel, that we are apt to feel as if it were desecrated when we hear it applied to any preserva tion or rescue, whether personal or national, of a merely secular and temporary nature.
