Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Christianity and War But nobody in all the world feels the load of such questions like the ministers of Christ and the preachers of His gospel. Be assured, my Friend, that the Christian people and their ministers in Serbia "live not by bread alone," but also search sincerely and painfully for the answers to the above questions. On that account allow me both as a minister of the gospel and as an eye-witness of the war to give the same answer to you that I have given to my Serbian flock, impelled as I am by the same spiritual needs as all religious men of the Old and New Worlds. Where is Christianity? That is the first question. My answer is: Only there where suffering is. If I say that, I do not mean unmerited suffering only, but merited suffering too. For all suffering purifies and ennobles. Suffering for righteousness is always suffering caused by others and suffering for unrighteousness is always suffering caused by ourselves. The righteous man always suffers, either for those who have lived before him, or for those who will live after him. The cause of a good man´s suffering lies outside him; the cause of a bad man´s suffering lies within him. Just as suffering strengthens the good man in his goodness, so it weakens the bad man in his badness. The man who never suffered either in soul or in body was never a Christian man. The history of Christianity is the history of suffering in all its myriad forms. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
