Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of the Atonement and Other Sermons Jesus the Citizen was a Radical: that is, He was one who lived in connection with the root principles which underlie existence. He appeared in an age which scarcely knew if there be any principles for the basis of existence. The age was eminently a superficial one. Men were content to found life on dogmas and traditions, and they cared to go no deeper. Such an age is always in danger of a reformer, and the deepest and truest thing it has is an instinctive knowledge of this. For in the economy of God, a heart is certain to come at last to which dogma and tradition are insufficient, and with an insight which pierces through the accumubated falsehood of centuries to the truth that God must work on fixed principles. And then comes the almost agonising question after these. Thus appeared the Son of God, the eternal Word, the Truth! And the spirit of his day quailed instinctively in his; presence as before its natural foe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
