Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Plain Thoughts on Faith and Life From that hour of revelation before the gates of Damascus to the hour of his martyrdom at Rome, Paul presents an example of marvelous courage, faith, and hope. At times, however, as he views the vastness of the work and the fewness of the workers the profound sadness of his soul vents itself in such expressions as our text: "All men - all men are seeking their own." His words suggest for our serious meditation the universal weakness of humanity, the sin of inordinate self-seeking. Taking life at its lowest valuation - that of the individual happiness - even then the self-centered life is a failure. With vast erudition John Stuart Mill argued for happiness as the chief end of life. Yet he was forced to confess that if one should pursue his own happiness as his supreme object, he must fail to attain it.
