Book Synopsis The Spread of Christianity (Classic Reprint) by : Paul Hutchinson
Download or read book The Spread of Christianity (Classic Reprint) written by Paul Hutchinson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spread of Christianity OF the making of church histories there seems to be no end, nor of the discovery of new facts that have a bearing on the story. The only reason for a new text, in view of the adequate volumes that already exist, is the hope of winning the interest of a new group - in this case, pupils in the eleventh grade of the American school. In writing for this group (which is generally found in the sophomore or junior years of the high school) no effort has been made to mention all the facts, or even all the names, that must be included in any complete record of the Christian enterprise. It is conceivable that some church historians, chancing on this book, might be overwhelmed by its omissions. To any such it can only be said that the omissions have been deliberate. The attempt has been to throw into bold relief the significant developments in Christian history since the days of Constantine. Christianity as a growing power is the theme, with the hope that young Christians may find some pride in belonging to a body that, with all its long traditions, lives ever on the move. Likewise, the Spread of Christianity has been presented, not as some unique phenomenon in a water-tight compartment of its own, but as an integral part of the movement of all history. The repetition of much that is included in the usual school course seems justified if this branch of history is to be seen in its proper frame.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Spread of Christianity in the Modern World I delivered in October and November, 1913, in Mansfield College, Oxford, the Dale Lectures on The Expansion Of Christendom and the Naturalization Of Christianity in the Orient in the Nineteenth Century. The book was finished in 191 5. Its publication has been delayed because Of the war. The publisher has con sented that certain general considerations which are elaborated in that book shall appear in brief in the introduction to this. The publishers Of this book have acceded to the same request. Apart from the statement Of their common point Of View which is thus provided for, it is hoped that the two books may serve as com plementary the one to the other. This book attempts a survey Of the history Of missions since the beginning Of the modern era. It aims to depict the missionary movement against the background Of general history. It seeks to present an outline Of the main facts so far as this is possible within SO small a compass. The other book assumes knowledge Of the facts, both those which relate to the spread Of the in uence Of European civiliza tion and as well those which directly concern the propa ganda for the Christian religion. It proposes to interpret this history and to discuss the philosophical and religious principles involved.

Download or read book The Gospel History and Its Transmission (Classic Reprint) written by F. Crawford Burkitt and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gospel History and Its Transmission The ten Lectures contained in this volume were delivered in the spring of this year at the Passmore Edwards Settlement in London as the Jowett Lectures for 1906. I repeated them with very little change for my inaugural course at Cambridge as Norrisian Professor of Divinity, so that it seemed advisable to keep them in lecture form when they came to be printed. It is sometimes supposed that the result of modern historical criticism is to diminish the historical value of the Gospels. My own researches have made me believe that there is a much larger element of genuine history in the Canonical Gospels, than a general view of the tendencies which influenced Christendom during the first century and a half of its existence might have led one to anticipate.

Presenting the subject from an interdenominational view point, it aims to awaken an interest for the church and'the cause of Christ, and to exert an infin ence in favor of primitive Christian piety.

Book Synopsis History of Christianity by : Paul Johnson
Download or read book History of Christianity written by Paul Johnson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-03-27 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1976, Paul Johnson’s exceptional study of Christianity has been loved and widely hailed for its intensive research, writing, and magnitude—“a tour de force, one of the most ambitious surveys of the history of Christianity ever attempted and perhaps the most radical” (New York Review of Books). In a highly readable companion to books on faith and history, the scholar and author Johnson has illuminated the Christian world and its fascinating history in a way that no other has. Johnson takes off in the year AD 49 with his namesake the apostle Paul. Thus beginning an ambitious quest to paint the centuries since the founding of a little-known ‘Jesus Sect’, A History of Christianity explores to a great degree the evolution of the Western world. With an unbiased and overall optimistic tone, Johnson traces the fantastic scope of the consequent sects of Christianity and the people who followed them. Information drawn from extensive and varied sources from around the world makes this history as credible as it is reliable. Invaluable understanding of the framework of modern Christianity—and its trials and tribulations throughout history—has never before been contained in such a captivating work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Course of Christian History The history of Christianity is the story of the origin, prog ress and development of the Christian religion, and of its influence upon the world. Almost nineteen centuries have passed since Jesus Christ began his public ministry for the establishment of the religion which bears his name. Dur ing this long period Christianity has been more and more dominating the lives of men, illuminating their minds, strengthening them in their moral struggles, irradiating their hopes, making earth more tolerable and heaven more inviting and certain. The story of this growing and spread ing influence is the external history of Christianity. But as Christianity has expanded there has come con stant inner change. From the unity and simplicity of orig inal Christianity have developed the multiplicity of Chris tian sects with their varied forms of organization and wor ship, their divergent views of theology and the ordinances, their various types of Christian thought and life, as we see them to-day. The story of these changes is the inner his tory of Christianity. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2016-09-18 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Inner Life of the Religious Societies of the Commonwealth: Considered Principally With Reference to the Influence of Church Organization on the Spread of Christianity The stand-point from which the subject has been treated, differs essentially from that of many other writers. The reader will, however, agree, that it is desirable to contemplate the religious history of our country from all the points of view which may tend to elucidate it. Some aspects of the history of the period may have their importance, and yet have escaped the notice they deserve, while others may be obscured by the mist of a prejudice which is merely the result of imperfect information. Whatever treatment the history of the Christian Reli gion may receive from historians, and whatever may be the fate of Religious Societies, we may be sure (to use the words of one who suffered martyrdom* for his Opinions respecting the constitution of a visible Church), that the smallest portion of Divine truth is immortal; it may perhaps long be bound, scourged, crowned, cruci fied, and be laid for a season in the grave, yet the third day it shall rise again victorious, and rule and triumph for ever.

This claim which we make for him may well seem questionable if measured by the extent to which his in uence has spread over the globe. The religion of Buddha, it is computed, is the religion of four hundred millions of human be ings. So far then as numbers are concerned, Christendom must yield to the religion of Asia, and Christ to Buddha.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Achievements of Christianity This little book owes something, in idea and form, to advice obtained in a conversation with the late Pro fessor Gwatkin. I was thereby led to look for a con nection between Christian doctrine, its View of God and of man, and the facts of history, and to see in history the working of Christian principles. This is not to claim the support of so great and honoured a Cambridge name as his for any particular treatment or special statement which may be found in the book. Those who knew Professor Gwatkin at all in his life, and were more than students of his books, will realise the pleasure there is in paying any tribute, in however small a matter.
