CHAPTER XIX THE SOCIAL GOSPEL AND THE ATONEMENT To countless Christian minds the doctrine of the atonement has been the marrow of theology. We have reserved it for the close of our discussion. Does the social gospel contain anything which would verify, interpret, quicken, or expand that doctrine? And what form of the doctrine would best express and support the social gospel? The theological interpretation of the death of Christ has a long and varied history. It will aid us in estimating our modern needs if we pass it briefly in review. To the first disciples the death of their Lord was an astonishing catastrophe, an unexpected, terrible, and apparently impossible outcome of the work of the Messiah. For that very reason they craved an explanation of the event which would interpret it as a fundamental part of God's plan. Their method was to prove that it had been foretold throughout the Scripture and foreshadowed by typology. Paul was the first to give the death of our Lord a really central position in a theological system. But the early Church never appropriated or utilized more than a few leading ideas of Paul. The most popular and elaborate theological explanation was the theory that Christ's death was a ransom paid to Satan. By the fall the human race became subject to Satan, and he had a rightful claim on it as its sovereign. God in mercy desired to emancipate humanity from the thraldom of Satan, but would not use his superior power to wrest from him what was his by legal right. So he offered Christ to Satan as a ransom in exchange, and Satan gladly accepted. But in killing the sinless Christ, Satan overstepped his legal claims and thereby forfeited all his rights. Or, according to other Fathers, Satan was attracted by the human...

This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Social Gospel and the New Era The scope of the social task of the Church presents a multiplicity of opportunities and a diversity of ac tivities for service, but these should not bewilder or con fuse any one. The larger outlook tends to promote a common interest in the general work of the Church throughout the world and to evoke greater concentra tion and loyalty to the ideal of realizing a localized kingdom of heaven in each separate community. The successive chapters are closely related. Their unity and coherence are involved in the principles un derlying the social ideal of Jesus, Whose leadership is recognized throughout. The book Will have served its purpose if it meets the felt want of pastors, laymen and students for a compact statement of the Church's social task, together With its limitations and privileges. The list of books at the end of each chapter Will help the reader to pursue further the subjects treated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Theology and Social Progress: The Hampton Lectures for 1905 Too many seem to-day to approach social questions with much sympathy but no genuine conviction, with but little knowledge of average human nature, and less of its past experience or discoveries. The Gospel, the People, the average man - these to-day are the weaker brethren.' It is my aim to show how general welfare is bound up with the faiths and hopes of Christian belief; and again, how the general welfare can only rightly be secured by justice to the particular, by respecting the units which make up the whole: a heap composed of valueless atoms is itself without value.

Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1910 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER X WEALTH It would indeed be strange if we should find Jesus silent regarding wealth. His interest in humanity and all that pertains to humanity must have forced him to a consideration of the subject. Altogether the largest proportion of human endeavor is devoted to economic affairs. Reduce the hours of labor however we may, the great object of life on the part of most men is to earn enough to enable them to keep living. There is too, the widespread ambition to get rich. It is probably true that this, as much as any other motive in life, lies beneath the social evolution of society. It is not true, as some insist, that the economic are the only motives operative in human history; but they are certainly so prominent and so powerful as to be of first importance. Now, Jesus, in teaching and living the gospel, was never far from life. He saw the poor all about him, and saw the rich turning from him. He himself had been obliged to earn a living for himself and, if tradition is to be believed, for his mother and his brothers and sisters. He saw too, how hard it is for men who are seeking wealth to make the things of spiritual value supreme. And for that reason he spoke about wealth perhaps more than about any other subject, unless it was the kingdom of God and the wickedness of religious hypocrisy. In order to understand his position, it is necessary, first of all, to get his point of view, for that will be that of the gospel itself. Clearly enough his interest in wealth is not that of the political economist. The modern world would be slow to dispense with those patient men of science who study the economic aspects of human life. All over the world we find them collecting the material on which they may base their discussions of the...
