Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Stewardship of Faith Our Heritage From Early Christianity The following pages are based on a series of lectures given at the Lowell Institute and in the King´s Chapel in Boston in 1913. They have been rewritten and somewhat enlarged, but not seriously altered. The title, The Stewardship of Faith, has been given because I feel that the most important fact which emerges from the study of Early Christianity as I have tried to present it, is that the Church owes its position to the endeavour of past generations to hold up to mankind a standard of life in religion, morality, and politics higher than that reached by the world ii general. Christians were men who had seen a vision. Faith was their trust in the Guide who offered to lead them towards it, and Cf that Faith they were the Stewards. It was expressed in many different ways: in a series of theological and metaphysical propositions; in the splendour and pomp of sacramental liturgy; in the imposing structure of Christian ethics.
