Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Seventeenth Century Men of Latitude: Forerunners of the New Theology At intervals during more than ten years it has been the writer´s privilege to refresh his spirit by communion with these worthies of an earlier time. In their sweet sanity the violent animosities of their own day are composed, and peace is made also between past and present. In every age, perhaps, there are spirits deep and broad enough both to unify the discordant elements of their own time and to bind all ages together. It is good for the soul to cultivate such company. It makes one believe afresh in the "communion of saints." While partisanship was rushing over the violent cataracts of a narrow torrent, in these spirits there is the placid expanse of, broad and quiet streams. In their company we are led Si through green pastures and beside the "still waters." While others were thinking of the Christ who came to bring not peace but a sword, they were sitting at the feet of Him who said, "Blessed are the peacemakers." It was a chapter in Professor Fisher´s "History of Christian Doctrine," which first called the writer´s attention to these men.
