Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Christian Mysteries, Vol. 1: Or Discourses for All the Great Feasts of the Year, Except Those of the Blessed Virgin The word "mystery," according to its etymology, means something veiled or hidden. Now there are innumerable things veiled or hidden, even in the natural order, which will never be known, or which, if known at all, will be known only to a few and after the lapse of years; and these are what are called the mysteries of nature. With these mysteries we are not here concerned. In the ecclesiastical and religious sense the word "mystery" signifies a truth so veiled or hidden that it transcends the powers of reason, not only of this man or of that, or at this time or at that, but simply of every man and at all × in other words, a mystery, in the rigorous and theological sense of the word, is a truth that is absolutely supernatural and beyond reason. A mystery, however, does not signify a doctrine contrary to reason, or one that implies a contradiction, as some believe and assert; were this so it would be man´s duty to reject a mystery as something insulting both to him and to God, in whose name it is announced.
