Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pulpit and Press Nevertheless, there is a thought higher and deeper than the edifice. Material light and shade are temporal, not eternal. Turning the attention from sublunary views, however enchanting, think for a moment with me of the house wherewith they shall be abundantly satisfied, even the house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. With the mind's eye glance at the direful scenes of the war between China and Japan. Imagine yourselves in a poorly barricaded fort, fiercely besieged by the enemy. Would you rush forth single-handed to combat the foe? Nay, would you not rather strengthen your citadel by every means in your power, and remain within the walls for its defense? Likewise should we do as metaphysicians and Christian Scientists. The real house in which we live, and move, and have our being is Spirit, God, the eternal harmony of infinite Soul. The enemy we confront would overthrow this sublime fortress, and it behooves us to defend our heritage. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Fur thermore the author desires to inspire a manhood which will enable them to see the light of the nineteenth cen tury brightening as -it approaches the twentieth, and which in time will so dazzle those who adhere to the remnants of bigotry as to lead them, against their own inclining, to the truth and purity of the new theology - the pro.

The popular thought is too apt to be superficial. Men talk of stabilizing the world when they mean only return to normal production. They forget that the world has been shaken by the clash of great ideals - and that peace is a spiritual attain ment - only through justice and mercy and humility. Christianity has to do with the contests of our age and is involved in their outcome. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Last Words in the Pulpit I propose to glance at the past history Of that social in stitution known as the church, for the purpose of ascertain ing through what forms, and by what processes, it has reached its present condition; and also that we may with approximate precision forecast what its future will be. To accomplish this purpose with thoroughness - that is to enter into all the details of church history, to analyze closely and accurately the present status of the church, and then to picture with anything approaching to particu larity the future which lies before it - would be a task calling for the space Of many volumes, and requiring for its performance the learning of the historian, the passion Of the scientist, and the imagination of a prophet. Let me, then, disallow at once any such ambitious and weari some project. Instead of entering into all this infinite variety of detail, I would simply pass before you, with panoramic swiftness, the salient features which suggest themselves as one thinks of the past, the present, and the future of the church. My excuse for calling your thought to this theme, if any excuse is needed, is found in the fact that in the progress of thought upon so-called religious subjects, the divine institution of the church has been called in question, and its value as a constructive and formative instrumentality has been thrown into debate.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Browder's Pulpit: Or, the Logic of the New Covenant This is our first book, and we are certain that it is not free from mistakes. We believe that the merit of a book of this kind should depend not so much upon its bulk as the thoughtfulness of the writer. However, the author knows that among the things that ﬂoat down the stream of time, the largest is the least likely to sink and the most likely to be seen. It is popular in writing books to prelude them with an apology for having done so; and also to speak of the many difficulties the authors labored under during their preparation. But the author of these pages has neither apology nor complaints to offer, but he has good and sufficient reasons, he thinks, for offering to the reading public this work. It is because the author believes that the sub jects discussed in this work are very important, and therefore interesting, that he has undertaken to prepare it for the press. He also believes he can reach a certain class of readers who are gener ally neglected in the works of the Brotherhood, because they are over-shot. The aim of the pres ent volume is to set forth, in a plain and simple style, Jesus Christ as the Savior of men, and the New Testament as the only means of his appoint ment in order to the accomplishment of that end. It is proposed, also, to expose some of the more prominent, glaring misrepresentations heaped upon our people by ignorant sectarians.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pulpit Commentary What is the origin, true character, and proper place of sacrifice as a part of religion Half a century ago, when many of us were schoolboys, there was certain definite teaching on this subject. Probably nine hundred and ninety-nine out of every thousand educated Englishmen, who had seriously turned their thoughts to the matter, were per fectly satisfied with the view, and regarded it as almost axiomatic, that sacrifice was a divinely appointed religious rite, intended to typify and educate the world for one Great Sacrifice, which Great Sacrifice having been accomplished, there was no need for, or even place for, any future sacrifice, truly so called, in the Christian Church. I do not put the matter thus under the idea that the consensus of antiquity is necessarily any warrant for the truth of a doctrine, but only because the view of sacrifice that I have alluded to has seemed to multitudes so scriptural, so simple, so fully to account for the peculiarities and mysteries of the subject, that in reconsidering it we should be led to use the utmost diligence in finally satisfying our minds as to its true place and character. For we must reconsider it, if not for our own satisfaction, at least for the satisfaction of those we may have to teach. This duty is forced upon us by the fact that the waves of modern opinion have rudely shaken our ancient, and what perhaps we considered our orthodox, notions about sacrifices; and, indeed, it has been not merely a shaking, but a complex shaking - one wave rolling the notion in one direction and another in an opposite one, so that we feel that we must first secure the notion before we can assign it its true place in history and in reference to the Christian religion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pulpit and Politics Brave soul He uttered his truthful message, and for it was smitten in the face by a false prophet, and sent to pris on by the enraged and characterless king. Every minister of the Gospel is a bearer of messages from God to man. And neither the hatred of political powers, nor the opposition of pulpit and press should deter him from giving a full and faithful deliverance of his message. It may be his duty to proclaim unpleasant truths to those who wear crowns, or the tiara, as did Knox and Luther; or he may find it necessary to utter his unpopular message to a proud and luxurious age ignoring the laws of God, as did Lovejoy, Parker, Beecher and Haven. But human nature is the same in all ages, whether it wears the crown, or casts a freeman's ballot. In the son of Chenaanah, it smote the cheek of the faithful prophet in Ahab, it imprisoned him in Jehoiakim, it burnt his message; in Herod it beheaded him in Queen Mary it dreaded him in a free Democracy it may banish him, as it did Aristides and in a free Republic under the voluntary system of ministerial support, it; may kill him as it did Lovejoy and Haddock, or refuse him sym pathy, or brand him with Opprobrious epithets or burn him in eﬂigy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Original Plymouth Pulpit, Vol. 1: Sermons of Henry Ward Beecher in Plymouth Church, Brooklyn; September, 1868 to March, 1869 In our day, sermons that are only chapters of theology will be read by few, not because they are not good, but because they are not adapted to the present want. The sermons that will be read by multitudes are those which bring God's infinite truth into vital relations with the thoughts, sympathies, enterprises, habits, loves, hatreds, temptations and sins, ideals and aspirations of the times in which the preacher lives. A few sermons there are, a very few, that so grasp the heart-truths in their universal forms as to be interesting and powerful alike in every age. But few good sermons can live longer than the generation for which they were made. The true preacher is to be eminently a man of his own time. He is to be in sympathy, not with ideas and truths alone, but with living men. To know merely what men thought a hundred years ago, - to be learned only in the things that men wanted in other ages, is to be but a pulpit antiquary. The printing-press may preach essays. The pulpit is for living truth aimed at living men. No matter if sermons are transient in their effects. So are drops of rain. But, in both cases, shower follows shower, and, while no one drop endures, the vegetable kingdom grows and thrives through all ages. Sermons perish, but men live. It is a token for good when so many are interested in reading sermons that publishers find it for their interest to spread them abroad. I shall be glad indeed if these discourses, prepared for my own congregation, and preached week by week from my own pulpit, shall be, to others far away, both food and medicine.
