Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Yet a More Excellent Way: An Essay on the Theory and Practice of the Christian Religion The Sensible Service of Christianity. Every Sunday the highways and byways of Christendom are thronged with people going to church. About everybody goes to church more or less often. The man or woman who never goes to church is rare. Few, perhaps, go every Sunday, but almost any Sunday finds a large part of the people going. Why do people go to church? Because they find some profit in going, of course. In providing the church to go to, Christianity renders people a sensible service, by which I mean a service appreciated by the people themselves as such. The church to go to is plainly the efficient implement, so to speak, to a valued purpose, else the people would not make the use of it we find them making. On the first face of it, going to church is a religious proceeding. Religion, in the general and objective sense, holds always, I suppose, the purpose to effect a harmony of will between God and man; to make God´s will to be man´s will. In a word, atonement, that is, atonement, is the purpose common to all religions. It is in their several methods of bringing about the atonement that religions differ. Each religion has its own peculiar method of making man to be at one with God, and back of the method its peculiar theory of the relation of man to God.
