Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Property, Its Duties and Rights: Historically, Philosophically and Religiously Regarded; Essays by Various Writers; With an Introduction I think that I shall best justify my appearance as introducing this volume of Essays if I explain the circumstances of their origin. Dr. Bartlet, of Mansfield College, Oxford, had written a letter to the British Weekly strongly urging upon Christians the duty of reconsidering their ideas about property in the light of the Bible doctrine of stewardship - the doctrine that God the Creator is the only absolute owner of all things or persons - that "all things come of Him" and are "His own," and that we men hold what we hold as stewards for the purposes of His Kingdom, with only a relative and dependent ownership limited at every point by the purpose for which it was entrusted to us. He was good enough to send me his letter and to suggest that we might combine to issue some literature of a popular kind about the duties and rights of property based on this Biblical doctrine. Naturally I felt a cordial sympathy with the idea, but I said that before anything of a popular kind was issued, I thought that we needed some more thorough or philosophical treatment of property in idea and history. The Bible doctrine by itself makes an appeal of tremendous force to the individual conscience. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
