Excerpt from Modern Thought and Traditional Faith There has never been a time in the history of scholarship when Truth for Truth's sake was so earnestly pursued as now. There has never been an age when the scholar was so fully and critically equipped for the ascertainment of Truth as in the present. It is in these convictions that this book is written. The ground reviewed in this volume is mostly historical, and the greater part of the facts as set forth have long been accepted without challenge. At the risk of appearing quite elemental, I have, in the earlier chapters, traversed a history which to scholars has long been familiar. These chapters, while not exhaustive as discussions, do, I believe, so indicate the character of the mediaeval ages, the faith, the science, the political conditions of those ages, as to make sufficiently clear the character of the background from which the modern thought-world has emerged. Owing to mental habits which are controlling in many minds, and which have been domesticated in traditional thinking, I may not, perhaps, hope, especially in the brief section of the book devoted to the history of biblical criticism, to meet in all cases with sympathetic readers. I can only say, however, that throughout the preparation of this volume I have been infinitely far removed from a desire to disturb the faith of any for the sake simply of so doing. There are some things, however, which seem to me reasonably certain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Resurrection and Modern Thought It is characteristic of many writings on the Resurrection of our Lord that they concentrate attention chiefly upon the evidences, while giving scanty recognition to the theology. This is, surely, even from an evidential standpoint, to be regretted; because the fact itself acquires a different value when seen to occupy a central place in a religious interpretation of human life and destiny. The writer is conscious of having dwelt insufficiently upon the doctrine in the volume which he was allowed to contribute to the Oxford Library of Practical Theology. An attempt was made to supplement this in an article contributed to Hastings' 'Dictionary of Christ and the Gospels.' But the exigences of space precluded a full discussion. A study of the theology and of the history of the doctrine is offered in the following pages. Of central importance are the changes caused in S. Paul's theology by his experience of the manifested presence of the Risen Lord. The doctrinal conclusions drawn from the Resurrection in the Mission Sermons of the Acts should receive the most careful study. Then comes, in its matured development, the theology of the Resurrection as expounded by S. Paul: its bearing on our Lord's Divinity; its effect in the process of His exaltation; its effect on the justification of the Christian Community, on the moral and physical Resurrection of individuals.

Excerpt from Christian Science and the Catholic Faith: Including a Brief Account of New Thought and Other Modern Mental Healing Movements Why deal once more with Christian Science? With so many works already on the market, why increase the output by an other study on this much debated subject? Christian Science will run its course, as other systems of thought, once much in evidence, have run theirs, and will not be materially inﬂuenced by the discussions to which it has given rise. Yet to discuss the subjects of the day is an intellectual need. The process of winnowing out truth from error must go on without interrup tion, the more so in this case, as Christian Science skims over many subjects of the very highest importance, opening up to controversial minds fair vistas of debatable ground. But why associate New Thought with its traditional foe? The answer must be sought in the treatise itself, which makes plain that, whatever minor differences there may be between these two organizations, their wider aims and common pursuits unite them in a clearly defined group, and blend together natu rally in a common discussion.

Excerpt from Foundations: A Statement of Christian Belief in Terms of Modern Thought The modern world is asking questions. Christianity and its traditional theology have come down to us from an age very different from our own, an age when the sun and the stars moved round the earth, when the meaning of natural law and evolution was only dimly apprehended, when the psychology of religion, the historical method and the critical study of ancient documents were yet unborn. These things touch the foundations of the old beliefs, and it is about the foundations that the world is asking.

Excerpt from The Dilemma of the Modern Christian How Much Can He Accept of Traditional Christianity? The following pages contain no attempt to solve the insoluble questions of modern thought. What has been aimed at is simply a statement concerning the central facts of Christian faith and worship. There are many people to whom the penumbra of faith is too congenial to allow them to feel at ease in the bright light of the central sun. Some of these may appreciate an honest expression con cerning the difficulties of their position. Those whose faith has suffered total eclipse - if there be any such - will not be inﬂuenced by another person's assurance that the sun still shines unto the coming of the perfect day. With those who have reached finality about the mo mentons questions of Christian prayer, the writer seeks no quarrel. He is aware that he has nothing to offer them.

Excerpt from The Gospel and Its Tributaries My aim in the book has been to indicate how Chris tianity drew into itself many tributary elements, and in so doing transformed them, so that the result was not some nondescript composite religion, but a new and in some ways more adequate expression of the message of Jesus. The survey is limited to the period covered by the New Testament. My first intention was to extend it to the time of the Council of Nicaea, for it was in the second and third centuries that the fusion of Christian belief with contemporary thought was carried fully into effect. But the traditional View of the New Testa ment as complete in itself is not wholly artificial. In that first century the gospel was formulated, the forces which were to modify it came definitely into play, the task which lay before it was clearly envisaged. The subsequent period only wrote out again in larger characters what may be read in the New Testa ment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
