Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The People´s Bible, Vol. 5: Discourses Upon Holy Scripture "Yet tn this thing ye did not believe the Lord your God." Deut. i. 32. Note the possibility of partial faith. - There may be very considerable credence in divine promises, yet there may be one weak point. - In this as in other respects the law holds good: he that offends in one point offends in all. - Faith is no stronger than its weakest point. We must not expect to realise divine blessings if we bring a crippled faith to the exercise. - It is sometimes supposed that faith is one act, and that as such it is either strong or weak. - All consciousness and all spiritual history distinctly disprove this theory. - We may have a general faith in the inspiration of the Scriptures, and yet encounter with strong doubt some particular injunction or promise which appeals to our self-sacrifice. - We may believe in other men praying and have doubts about our own prayers. - We may have general faith in Christian doctrine and yet be lacking in the particular faith which applies that doctrine to actual life. - We should examine the whole line of faith day by day to see Vol. V.which points are weak and to amend them accordingly. - What if we believe God and do not practise godliness? - Where is faith then? "Your little ones ... shall go in thither." - Deut. i. 39. God´s purposes are not to be broken off. - Wherever they appear to be broken off it is only in detail and momentarily: the great line still stretches onward towards the completion of the eternal decree. - It is not in the power of man to frustrate the purposes of heaven. - Why do the heathen rage? - The generations are one as to the divine intention, though multitudinous in their particular details; the divine thought, therefore, cannot be judged here and now or at any particular break in history, it must be judged when all is completed and sealed. - The first shall be last and the last shall be first. - Those whc are little now may be great hereafter. The little are not condemned because of the sins of their ancestors. - About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
