Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from 1896 and the Five Redemption Years: A Blade O´ Grass Whose fault is it that it is not? Christian men, even in these more enlightened times, have been wont to hide behind the letter of the Scripture, and to declare that the are not at fault. God, in his infinite wisdom, has not seen fit to save the world; or sinners, in the hardness of their hearts, have refused to be converted. God has not even inspired his disciples to work more diligently for the worlds salvation. As the inspiration for every good work must come from God, Christian people are not to blame for the unsatisfactory moral condition of mankind. Inferentially and theologically it is God who is at fault. The Christian church goes scot free of blame! The Word of God declares that it has pleased God, through the foolishness of preaching, to save those who believe. If we ignore the less positive teaching of the Scriptures upon this point, and make this text our Bible as far as this one point is concerned, it would seem that preaching is the only duly accredited means of saving the world. At least in apparent fidelity to this idea, the church has magnified the office of the preacher of the gospel until he stands almost alone as the human instrument of salvation in the modern church. He alone is considered the evangelist of the gospel of Christ, and in every village and hamlet in civilized countries there has been a pulpit erected for him, and our missionaries also occupy ever point of vantage in heathen lands. Surely it would seem that the divine commission had been fulfilled. We have preached the gospel continually and are still preaching, preaching, preaching; and yet the world is not saved. People will not even come into our churches and sit in the cushioned pews we have provided for them. We have certainly fulfilled the demands of the law, since the gospel is preached everywhere. What more is needed? Why is the world not saved? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
