Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The National Mission of Repentance and Hope: Report of the Archbishops´ Committees of Inquiry This Report belongs to a series: it is one of five. They have the same historic origin, and that origin should be steadily in the thoughts of those who read them. Two years ago, in this grave crisis of our nation´s history, after much thought and prayer, we called the people of England to a National Mission of Repentance and Hope. First, during 1916, came the preparation of the Church itself. In every Diocese and Parish we sought fresh guidance of the Holy Spirit to reveal to us our own failures, both as individuals and as members of the Church and nation. Then followed, in every corner of the land, the Mission-call to corporate repentance and to hope in Christ as the living answer to our needs. The call told: not, of course, universally, but very widely. We found that people were ready to face familiar facts afresh: that a new spirit was breathing upon dry bones: that we must, and could, be up and doing. As we appraised the outcome of the Mission-call five subjects in the life of Church and nation stood out with obvious claim for our rehandling. The character and manner of our teaching: our worship: our evangelistic work: the discovery of removable hindrances to the Church´s efficiency: the bearing of the Gospel message on the industrial problems of to-day. Five Committees of our best and strongest were accordingly appointed to deal with these, and 1917 was given to the task. Let no one regard as a disappointing thing the pause which that deliberation involved. It may prove, by its results, to have been the most fruitful time of all. And now in 1918 the five Reports are in our hands. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
