Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Valid Christianity for to-Day This volume comprises a number of discourses delivered on various occasions and now published at the request of friends of the writer. A common title has been given the collection; for although the discourses reflect the variety of the occasions which they served and deal with different themes, yet in them all the preacher had in mind a single purpose; viz., to present a Christianity that is valid for to-day. There are those who would establish the validity of our religion by proving the genuineness of its ancient sources and the unbrokenness of the channels which connect us with those sources. Consequently, they spend their efforts chiefly upon such matters as the authenticity of the Scriptures, - the Divine origin of the Church and its consequent authority to establish creeds and dogmas for doctrine and rules and canons for conduct, and demand acceptance of the one and obedience to the other, - the continuity of tradition and apostolic succession, etc. For them a valid Christianity is to be known by its roots. But the mind of to-day is intensely practical, if not pragmatic. It insists that for it, at least, a valid Christianity is to be known, not by its roots, but by its fruits.
