Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sayings of the Lord Jesus Christ, Vol. 4: As Recorded by His Four Evangelists The life Of Christ, as thus identified with essential life itself, that is, with God, may accordingly be regarded in two aspects: as transcendental and immanent, above Space or time; and as projected materially upon a certain space of the world's history, during which it assumed what is in common language spoken of as form and substance. In any such expression the words form and substance have indeed departed widely from their proper meaning. It would be truer to say that the form and substance of life, themselves eternal, assumed matter and accident. But in its material and accidental manifestation, that life, while on the one hand it remained itself, essential and unchangeable, in another aspect became subject to limitations, misconceptions, perver sions. The very theology whose Object it was to prevent all these was Often the most potent instrument towards aggravating and perpetuating them. The legend of Christ, whether popular or scholastic, obscured and covered his life. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
