Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Christ and International Life A short time ago, when lecturing in a public hall on a subject intimately connected with the religious life of the nation, I referred to what appeared to me the clear teaching of Christ upon that subject. The chairman, at the close of the lecture, said that to explore the teaching of Christ was an "arid" occupation, as men and women to-day did not look to the past for guidance on modern problems. I am quite sure he was sincere, and am equally sure he was persuaded that this was the only view a really broad-minded man could adopt. Yet, if we reflect for one moment, how narrow, dogmatic, and even ignorant such a statement appears! The world has not had a superfluity of great teachers, and to many Christ is more than a teacher. He is a Revealer. But all recognize Him as one of the greatest teachers with whom humanity has been blessed. The truly inspired prophet, the perfect artist, speaks not to one race, but to all races, not to one generation or to one period of time, but to all. Time vanishes at the touch of inspiration. Therefore, to explore afresh the teaching of Christ is not to go back to the past. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
