Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Christian Life in the Modern World In one of the most vigorous as well as the shortest Letters of the New Testament, the Apostle, writing to Titus, his "own son after the common faith," reenforces his general doctrine of Christian ethics by a special application to the circumstances in which Titus finds himself at Crete. The Christian life, the Apostle says, is practicable even there. The Cretans, among whom Titus had been left "to set in order the things that are wanting," were, it was true, "liars, beasts, and gluttons." "This witness," the writer agrees, "is true"; but this truth is precisely what gives an opportunity for Titus to teach the Cretans a "healthy" doctrine of chastity, discretion, and gravity. "The grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men." Crete was a good place for a Christian to "adorn the doctrine of God." "For this cause left I thee in Crete." The problem of the Christian life was not to run away from a bad place, but to serve it and save it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
