Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Outlines of Natural Theology: For the Use of the Canadian Student In mixing with our fellow creatures, the startling conviction comes upon us, that numbers are living in a state of practical infidelity, and seem to be careless whether their opinions are erroneous, or just and true according to the standard of revealed truth. Our endeavour, therefore, should be to persuade them to enquire and to discover whether they are right or wrong. If any one should be led to contemplate the structure and operations of his own nature, and the relation which that nature has to others, we believe that he will rise from the study convinced, not only that there is a reality in his own life and in the life of others - which cannot be annihilated, but also that there is, distinct from and above all, a Self-Existent and Primary Energy. Let a man be ever so blind to the manifestation of God in his own consciousness, he can hardly shut his eyes to the innumerable evidences of His working, which meet him every where in creation. For He who is presented to consciousness as the Absolute, is manifested in nature as the Infinite Energy. The knowledge of Him is given by intuition in the one case, and by generalisation in the other. It is limited in both by the finite manifestation, and in both, therefore, it is imperfect. We have to pass from His manifestation in ourselves and in creation, to His fuller manifestation in the image of His Son.
